    Welcome to the problem I always have.

    Every time I ask for some communication I am met with "Learn to adapt". Or when someone asks how the pulls will go I get "Oh god some nub. Want me to pull one mob at a time nub?".

    2 books worth of myth and tanks always stopped at the bottom of the ramp. Then I get one war who pulls to the top thus dieing as i already popped seal and he was already half dead because I didn't expect it. "You stupid WHM you always pull to the top." "No you stupid tank in about 30 runs no one has ever pulled to the top."

    I don't ask for a lot. After that I started asking. "How many groups?" "Where are you stopping?" "Pulling to boss?" "Lockout?"

    While I believe you that most don't pull to the top, the reason many do (myself included), is that you don't have to deal with the bomb aoe's if you pull up to near the stream.

    I'm not entirely sure that's accurate. Several groups who pulled up the ramp with me as healer found themselves dodging the AoE from the cannon the whole time, right outside the boss room. I believe a key mob needs to be slain before the boss leaves you alone properly, otherwise you'll be dancing around them right up until the boss.

    I think it depends on how far back you pull them. I haven't had a need to dodge any cannon fire when my tank pulls them past the ramp and just around the corner on the right before the river. If you stop just at the top of the ramp, I believe you're "still in range" of the cannon.

    Yesterday night, doing the same pull at the same place, we got the Aoe? Hope it was just a one-time occurence..

    Odd. I run up to the little area to the right, right next to the stream, and never get the aoe there

    I have no trouble with the 'why'. Just at least tell me your doing it.

A good WHM can potentially out dps a blm on the second pull if they die in under 20seconds.

    Furthermore, WAR is the better tank for berserk/bloodbath overpower spam. WHM/WAR/BLM/BRD(BLM) have given me the best results while I worked on my animus.
    Notes taken. Will have to look into moving around some macros. Anything to make Longstop (Hard) suck less and I am the one that can make it suck less.

    Kind of nice when the healer can do something to make the run go better. Most of that is usually on the DPS or Tank.
