The Alliance roulette is unbearable

^That sounds more effective if all the DPS just zerg the stomach. The unknowns that spawn in there aren't really a threat. I just hold them and they are dead in seconds.

Actually you can be synced down from 570 (or whatever) to 130 with max stats and if people don't know mechanics, you'll probably still die. Item Level has nothing to do with it.

I honestly prefer to say things like... "Wait for everyone before you pull at Atomos" in LOTA or "Please always stand in a tower" for Cloud of Darkness than letting the raid run as a fiesta. You'd be surprised what short sentences like that can do for a newbie who hasn't seen some of the mechanics introduced in the tower.

I've had the pleasure of being the only one alive in my party and the only other people alive were B's tank and C's lone healer and the C healer was trying to pull off the biggest recovery in MMO history and that's without LB3 since it wasn't built up yet. Between all the raising and trying to 'target heal' a tank that isn't in C's party, it became too much when the adds spawns again (Angra Manyu if it's not obvious).
