This savage is getting really headache inducing...

A couple of ogcds from both healers is enough to deal with the entire thing regardless of the orb situation. That's chain lightning, crippling blow TB and judgements volts.

Only if you have a Scholar in the group. If you managed to get into a PF party with a WHM AST pair, there just isn't enough ogcds to go around for the amount of damage going out. Triangle puts people in a riskier position because Chain Lightning damages the same person every ~9 seconds compared to Circle which bumps it to every ~12 seconds giving the Healers an extra GCD of leeway to heal people up.

Less player movement = less error.

Circle is the exact same way too. There's practically no movement other than a light tap to rotate clockwise. And in a pug scenario where it's uncoordinated, it's much safer to do in the event of deaths going into the mechanic because yhe tanks aren't scrambung to float into position. Yes, Triangle is a valid strat, but it doesn't necessarily mean it's the best one in every situation. That's the purpose of this thread. People on PF being stubborn about what is the "best" strat and shoving it down people's throats because it's the one they cleared with.

I've had my AST co healer solo heal the chain lightning/judgement volt/crippling blow section with an earthly star, celestial intersection and essential dignity (and this was with half the group not having an orb because "mah dps"). So I somehow doubt whm/ast combo can't get past that with ogcds only even in less organized situations.
