Donor Mage tanking ability

I have the Mage donor gear bp, wep, and aug. I was wondering if it's possible to do the avatars and xegony fight with donor pet tanking and 2-3 clerics. I haven't done fennin ro fight because I was told there's adds that spawn and I can't see how I can do a boss fight with adds.
Is it possible for a bard to kite xegony adds while pet kills xeg? How do you guys handle adds while soloing?

Avatars will be challenging with a pet tank. Maybe if you spam heals on it you might survive, but it's health will drop fast against them.
For Xegony, a bard could kite the adds, but they will not despawn upon her death. Xegony herself doesn't hit hard, so if you have a decently geared melee toon you can tank her with them and have the pet tank/kill the adds. That's what I did.

Avatars are probably the hardest mobs in Air. It might be doable, but you'll definitely want a player tank for them for ease.

I've heard mages can solo fennin. I haven't attempted it yet but the frog mini boss Pythus or something I tried and he spawns a bunch of adds and I get smoked. How do you handle fights with adds? Especially with a cleric healing

How hard does xegony hit? 4k and how hard do the adds hit?

I don't know how a Mage could solo Fennin. Seems like the Elites would destroy the pet in like 5 seconds and the mage in about 2 seconds. I am not saying its not possible but I would like to see it. I always have to pacify the Elites with a Bard/Monk to avoid getting them.

Not sure if this helps.
I was able to take the avatars in air using a necro donor pet and cleric healing.
It was tough but doable.
