Enmity control quick guide T9 for "DF"

Enmity - While playing the turn 9 golem meteor phase, I have noticed that the enmity control is causing most wipes here. It's hard to explain quickly in DF. Here is my strategy: Meteor placement is the main issue only, not where. You need to be able to judge the distance so not to close. For the golems, "color works best for me, but may be done probably in any sequence" green first, then blue, last red. MT will get blue and OT will get red. Turning off Defiance and SO, everyone else jumps on green, then blue because MT and OT will now change golem color and green is eliminated Defiance and SO back on to keep them seperated. If green is still up when color change occurs finish green quickly as possible and then in this case don't use Defiance or SO because one tank has hate already and by other tank getting hate and causing the enmity to pull other golem to him. Also because getting meteors they must be moved around and enmity is lost while doing so.

We do MT picks up red, OT green, BRD on blue, we burn the blue before it switches, green then red.

For 2nd meteors we have an odd way, but its worked for us ^_^, split into healers, ranged and melee. each go to one of the small circles (where you place the 4 golem meteors, then place em between the fingers and on the fingers.

Wierd way but has worked for us for 20ish kills pre 2.4 and multiple after.

That´s the common Method and in no way weird O.o

Best bet though is drop meteors on outer edge at the post of arena and in between them, golems in middle at center of circles. Mt get blue, Ot green, whatever red. Green first then blue finally red killing order, if green isn't dropped before color switch, Ot will get blue so he should turn on Defiance or SO, Mt enmity defiance or SO off will get red, and whatever will have green still killing green first. Reason for this is to stop the draw in effect from the blu golem causing a wipe. I have confirmed this true if false please tell how?

How does draw in effect cause wipe ;x It ain't that big, shouldn't be drawing in other golems if you tank em on the edges.

The enmity doesn't change on the golems when they switch colors. What enmity problem is there - like who the golems are going to?

My group use 1 tank and have no problem with tank-green, whm-blue, brd-red at start of golem phases

No. The common method is bard picks up red and you kill green first. Green is the most dangerous one. Blue doesn't even use earthshock until the switch. There's no reason to kill it first.

The way my group did it was MT takes green, OT takes red, DPS hold blue until switch and then kill it.

Duty Finder- has lower level players and holding golems is harder for them, blue always is not moved quick enough or held away by dps causing the draw in and ending up in a wipe by big golem.
Organize parties probably higher gear level may not be bothered by that but duty finder seems to especially new to fight players. Just trying to help what i noticed a problem that was hard to explain quickly.

All DFs on my data center do BGR o.O;

I have never done a T9 that doesn't kill green first.
