I believe the popular strat was exdeath = true north? So tanks and healers can position their black holes appropriately and rotate before stacking for holy (after fire explosions). DPS typically stood near exdeath for uptime (but not too close to blow each other up). Also don't run into black holes hidden by his cape because that was/is a thing. You just need to be situationally aware of where black holes spawned and tethered to who and where.
That would explain me dying to the blackholes sometime cuz I thought behind him might be a safe spot since I usually position myself either behind or at the boss's flank.

It'll probably take me a bit more practice to memorize where the blackholes spawn beside the ones tethered to tanks and healers
