I'm sorry but it needs tweaking because it's too unfair to people who aren't living right next to the data center.
    Look for an animation where he holds his wings and head up into the air. The only other attack that shares a similar animation is the targeted fireball (which has his mouth open and flames inside his maw), which he holds that pose for a long time. This signifies he's charging and to get out of the way. He does a small "rawr" when he gets into pose for the charge. Again, if you're not standing in front of him, he must turn to you, giving you extra time to recognize what attack is being done.

    He only does this in the first phase, in the second phase he's pretty much instantly coming for you. I don't see any poses, he just turns my way and I'm dead even if I think I got out of the way. I aint the only one who sees this as an issue, another friend of mine plays on a PS4 so he is at an even bigger disadvantage and he says he tries to predetermine when it's about to charge and it still kills him.

    Gaius van Baelsar: Nor is this unknown to your masters. Which prompts the question: what came first, the chicken or the egg?

    What is your usual ping?

    I got hit a few times due to not moving quick enough when learning the fight, but after that I move immediately if he turns at me and I can get out of the way every time.

    I'm a bit jittery though and sometimes I move needlessly cause he turned at someone else, but I try to be safe than sorry.

    stay near tail
    when hes turning around go back to tail
    after third stack don't stand in front
    its that simple
    there is plenty of warning don't be stubborn when people are just giving you advice
