    1. Focus target twin. As soon as the focus appears run out.
    2. 2nd set of DB haired 45 seconds after assclap pops. If your not utilizing voice communication you can make a macro indicating DB in45 then in 5 with sound effects if ppl need.

    One issue we kept having when I helped my fc with clear was Shasta getting a conflag right before DB which messed up our transitions at the time. One thing we did to avoid that was holding-slow dps at 60% until twin confessed her current rotation. Once conflag was done we pushed her into the next phase .

    I did a DF T5 recently that actually made it to twisters. I kinda sorta get how to dodge twisters but everyone else didn't. maybe when my FC runs again on Saturday we'll have better luck.

    Whats the best way to deal with a poorly timed 4th conflag? Meaning, she pops a conflag, then immediately goes into divebombs. We usually let the person die and the other 7 move into the pit. Then raise once the snakes pop.

    Is there a good way to avoid the scenario all together?

    I find just letting the person die in the conflag then doing a rez after DB is the best solution, theres no point trying to finish off the conflag if it means tons of people are gonna be getting hit by DB.

    I been having issues with the DPS check recently, which is lol considering the echo buff. I don't get how the last 5 or DF runs we can't dps the snakes down in time before twinz comes back. Oh well, I've tried DF, PF, FC.. still have yet to get a clear myself. Guess it just ain't meant to be.

    Twin needs to be close to the dive bomb pit before the transition.

    If people are having dps issues with 20% echo then the dps need to relearn their job and stop using macros.

    It might not be entirely the fault of the DPS. If tanks are slow on gathering adds together or whoever is doing the LB is slow on the LB, or even if Asclepius doesn't get hit by all the defense down debuffs, it would make a difference.

    And for the person that just got to twisters phase, the most difficult part for my FC was transitioning from divebomb to twister phase. Everyone needs to prioritize spreading out instead of immediately trying to get into position for dreadknights. Once the twisters are on the ground and your party has hopefully survived that, get into your dreadknight spots and at that point it should be a lot easier. Twisters just place a landmine anywhere you were during the cast time. Simply moving around at all will allow you to survive it but most people recommend a small circle as it makes it easier for people to avoid each others' twisters.

    Its really only a DPS check if you don't have AOE lb, (yes that it's correct you can win without an aoe Lb ) perhaps to many ppl are dead during that part.
    Transition into twisters:
    as MT ill immediately grab twin and pull towards the middle as the rest spread out along the outer ring ready for the first twister

    For twister, I prefer half circles to minimize movement so that I am still in DK proximity.

    for DK phase, ranged stays spread along the outer edge, while melee dps move away as the DK drops in as a precaution until it's target is found. After each DK dies we burn twin until next DK or phase push. If you don't have the dps to burn Dk fast enough to focus on twin you can end up treading water till wipe

    As people have mentioned, there are 2 pits. When I setup carry groups we always tell the people who are less experienced to enter the 2nd pit so that if they have trouble during divebombs they won't risk wiping half the party.
    Also during conflags Twin should be tanked close to the pit so that everyone can get there with time to spare.

    It's a shame the people that need Twin aren't on Ultros, I help ppl with it all the time for first time clears. If you ever head to Ultros, hit me up, we'll get you a win!
