I've never been a group that's needing LB3 for the snakes, we did it with none for the most part, used it if I felt we weren't going to clear in time. It's the 3rd phase that gives parties the most trouble. I tell the party the 4 people who are marked go in first, then marked second, etc "Marked -> Unmarked -> Marked -> Unmarked, and so on". If people finally learn the difference between the shower and rain weather, either 1 or 2 people end up jumping on the back (I've had 3, in a party once) and let the add just smash the island doing huge amounts of damage it. I've tried several different orders with the adds, mostly the big guy, guy next to the big guy and then the small ranged one. These should be down before or shortly after Bismarck lands and group one starts DPSing his back, but the DPS is too low... or some decide to jump on even if it's not their turn.

I've just about given up on this fight until it's nerfed, over 30 hours spent on it at least with many different parties, and each one we begin from the start. Having to reteach each one the strategy, watching them go through the same mistakes isn't pleasant I'll say. Not like the Ravana weapons matter at this point anyway.
