Coil Turn 2 ADS fight, prove me wrong

Honestly, I don't think there's a right answer to that question, just a few wrong answers. Ultimately, what is sounds like the group wasn't avoiding is melee getting caught with a cleave as ADS was spinning and changing aggro. But I don't think you can say tanks/melee should always be standing X degrees apart, rather your strategy should account for that possibly happening, and how the group avoids that is up to you. (i.e. 3 seconds heads up on threat change, having melee stand X degrees apart, tanks repositioning slightly when they provoke, etc)

The tanks were probably not watching for you. We usually switch tank as soon as ADS did Chained Lightning so even with 2 melee dps at times, they never got hit. You can dps from both sides and back as long as you remember or watch which tank has aggro and not having rot on you.

Sometimes if the tanks try to switch while ADS is mid-cast, it won't be a clean transfer and ADS will pause while turning long enough smack melee DPS.

I haven't seen a cleave in this game that extends 180 degrees so if you were truly standing on the side you would not have been hit, and definitely not been hit ever time.

I guess you haven't done Caduceus.

Anyway, the 10 and 2 o'clock position, or however the two tanks can stand 90 degrees apart from each other seems to be the most accepted method.
