Yes he doesnt instantly cause a wipe, that wasnt my point you still had to manage your dps before the phase change or a wipe would happen if he split with stacks eventual or instant a wipe is still a wipe. And do we even know if this is an intended mechanic or a bug ive only seen it a few times and if it is intended im sure the "Tight enrage window" will be nerfed/tuned properly to account for higher ilevels seem to be just lack of testing imo.

Having to rely on tanks for the information required to dps is poor design in this instance. To use an illustrative example, it would be like if a mechanic similar to Briny Mirror had information about it which was only displayed to two DPS or similar, so the healers had to rely on these DPS to tell them when to stop healing (or they'll wipe the raid instantly, in this example) - and god forbid they have Regen or Whispering Dawn running...

Oh dear god cooperation in a party! Again doesn't matter, only casters (which SE intentionally is making players avoid all caster parties) don't have access to these skills. Try using some of those other cross class skills other than the cookie cutter ones and find unique uses for them. But wtf, you're a bard and are complaining...

Seriously that is what I want to know. Is it a Bug or a mechanic.

I'm complaining because it's poor design, not because it's difficult.

I'm quite certain that Cad splitting with a stack does not inevitably lead to a wipe.
