I'll try it but that sounds like a lot of work on the healers and the MT.
    exactly as your FC member told you, in tornado phase it doesnt matter who got the spiny first, the important is to quickly grap the sister you are suppose to tank, take her to your spot and keep an eye on stack. After that you just voke the spiny at 2 stack & stand at the healer spot to advoide accident aoe from the DD which happen often >.<

    It does. Because if you grab it at 2 stacks and then grab it again at the start of the eye phase, sometimes the Spiny will apply the third stack when you have 3 seconds left on the clock or so for the stacks to drop so either your party remember that you still have stack and not aoe the plumes yet till you grab it or you risk spiny taking a bit of damage (a lot if people start using flare).

    Imagine the following situation:

    MT grabs Garuda and Suprana.
    OT grabs Chirada.
    Spiny Plume attacks MT (Or another party member).

    What happens midway into the fight once Chirada is dead and the Spiny hits 2 stacks?
    The OT can Provoke EITHER Suprana (splitting damage and helping out Melees), or the Spiny Plume (avoiding a wipe).

    If OT instead Provokes the Spiny first regardless of whoever it's on at the start of the tornado phase; after the first sister is dead, the OT can Provoke the second sister off the MT whilst the MT provokes the spiny off the OT.
