The fight may be easier to get through in the future when we all have better gear. The way Phase 2 mechanics work, you have to do them even if it's unsynced, so the only way it would become easier is if you can kill it before the mechanic appears.

Some players avoid other players even when they don't have any issues. We've probably all experienced it when we've joined raid parties enough times.

It's hard to cope with it, I know. Not everyone is nice or patient. I'm not going to pretend that everyone will be patient in a social setting.

The best you can do is to try to avoid such people and blacklist them. It's demoralizing when it happens, so when someone treats you that way, I would suggest doing something that makes you happy and keeps you busy, until you feel better about it. Venting to a friend can help as well if it continues to bother you.
I'm not sure. The more I look into this, the more I realize it's just stinky game design with the intent to divide players and draw out playtime. I'm getting tired of this already, when I first started practising that raid, players would call out the problem makers (Not the mistakes), always came across as toxic.
