This is an assignment fight: tanks, interrupts, dispels and target priorities must be explicit. The council shares health, so clean control and survival beat uncontrolled target swapping.

Assign the encounter’s repeatable jobs before the pull. During progression, clean mechanic execution is worth more than marginal damage gained by ignoring movement or assignments.
Hold assigned council members in stable positions and prevent dangerous movement through the raid.
Track raid damage, dispels and tank spikes across multiple separated targets.
Follow the assigned target and interrupt plan; react to dangerous abilities instead of chasing meters.
Write down tank targets, interrupts, dispels and primary DPS target before pulling. Council progression becomes dramatically cleaner when every repeated responsibility has a named owner instead of being handled reactively.
Missed interrupts; council members drift out of position; dispels are late; players tunnel the wrong target and ignore ground or personal mechanics.
Four-target coordination. Make this mechanic consistent before optimizing raid DPS.
Illidari Council is a Phase 3 boss in Black Temple, a 25-player TBC Classic raid.
Use your Phase 3 BiS as a baseline, but encounter-specific survival, resistance or threat requirements can justify swaps during progression.
Use the Black Temple loot page together with your spec’s Phase 3 BiS guide to judge upgrades and loot priority.
