Great strategy, thanks. I had been struggling a with this.
Tried this and worked a charm.

I suck at this...I can beat the Harvester in his first form, then I get owned on his second, I will try this method tonight

Thanks for this strategy. It worked! It took me like 4 times, as my party kept dying all in the same time frame.

Eventually I beat it's first phase with all of my party alive and full health. 2nd phase kicked in, and for some reason NONE of the skeletons spawned in! I just kept my golem in a safe location, just in case and let the other party members slowly beat him. The 2nd phase just kept jumping from 1 spot to the next and after about 5 minutes, it was over. Woohoo.

Looks good, I'll be trying this as soon as I'm up to this dlc, going through them in order lol.

If you're having trouble, the key is making sure you hit the Harvester in its second (smaller) form to get the party targeting it for Phase 2. I had done that in the beginning of the fight for Phase 1 but not after it changes forms. I can't tell you how many times I failed but once I realized that was all I needed to do, the method works perfectly. Also if your Warden is an archery rogue (mine was), you should re-spec them to be a dual-wielder since it is entirely a melee battle. That was the other problem I was having.
