    It might be a little rough, but it's hard to say. I imagine things might normalize eventually as far as strategies go (or new ones might pop up given increased damage and hp numbers). I've noticed that many of the people doing this content have been doing it with statics for a long time and have a specific strategy in mind for each turn, but other players have different strategies in mind. It's not quite as bad as relearning it, but there can be issues with getting everybody on board with 1 strategy. There's also the usual drama of people leaving after a single wipe because, "I never would have come if I knew this was a learning group for a bunch of %&*^ing noobz!" (even though many people are wearing a lot of Allagan gear).

    This! I did have one group where the tank would handle Cad in a particular spot in Turn 1, but it was an absolutely terrible spot for melee because you couldn't avoid the platforms for slime spawns. If you tried to jump in the only safe zone in the area, which would be the one she tanked at, because of the way she positioned, you'd get murdered by cleave.

    Absolutely would not change her position at all because "that's the way I've been doing this for months." No melee in static group, I'm guessing. Eventually adjusted positioning after we kept wiping and eventually people kept complaining, but some people just are not flexible at all. I imagine it'll be worse in DF for people learning the fight.
