If we've got to use a THF tank due to lack of other tank types, I would say have the THF take GK to the back and kite him with a RDM.
No, I wanted to use thief because they have like uber mad evasion ^^ However, because they don't have provoke, I'm scared they lose hate to other people around (brd song, rdm gravity and the like). -If- it can be done, I think it would be the best.

As I recall (notes at home and I'm not :/) GK doesn't have AOE
How can you forget Galka's jump AoE

He jump really high in the air and do a front flip and fall back doing a big AoE. This AoE is absorbed by utsu but gives bind status when not resisted... I think.
As for the order we kill them, I wanted to do something like you said.
Taru has to be first because he is a real pain, Galka come after because he is "easy" and jump/meikio could be annoying if we dont take care of him early. Mithra in 3rd because hume and elvaan are the hardest.
TT --> GK --> wyvern --> MR --> pet --> HM --> EV
I would like to use BC entrance to tank/kite at least 2. Chanalix said it already, but Galka will probably be pulled in entrance, mitra above the stair, and the other 3 in the main area

I thought cool down on Icarus Wings was 1 hour, my bad ^^ (yeah yeah, silly mage people)
If we've got to use a THF tank due to lack of other tank types, I would say have the THF take GK to the back and kite him with a RDM. As I recall (notes at home and I'm not :/) GK doesn't have AOE, so as long as the THF can stay out of range and evade they MIGHT be able to keep hate long enough for the rest of the alliance to kill TT, assuming the order is TT > GK > MR > Pets > HM > EV.
IF TT doesn't go down quickly though, the THF will lose hate. When I tried this, we took GK to the far back (by the platform) and did NIN + RDM with the NIN head to head on GK. Due to no fault of the NIN, I got hate a few times, just because GK hits hard and accurately. I think WAR/NIN *coughKayliacough* would be superior in kiting these than a THF just for aggro since if the AA runs wild it can kill most jobs in 1-2 hits and will wipe out the alliance really quickly, unless another tank type can pick it up.
We also took MR to the hallway, which seemed to work nicely because it kept most people out the AOE.

Yay, I'm so excitied to try this again. Thanks for setting it up Kaylia
Np ^^ I'm probably as excited as you to do this battle. I really like those challenging battle

When CKD did that fight they had a NIN go 1 on 1 with the mithra. And had a THF 2 hour and keep the galka busy till after the Tarutaru was dead.
So it works? Thanks for the info, I guess we will try something like this too ^^
