    You can edit your post to go over the character limit:

    1) Charm Affliction cannot be esuna/leeched it is removed by healing the afflicted to full (which can be tough with the reduced healing debuff it also applies, and even worse if lunatic voice goes off as well). If it does go through the resulting Charm cannot be esuna/leeched either.

    2) I have not done the silencing myself, but I do know that my group is not using stuns, and that the bard is using blunt arrow and I have not had to deal with a Lunatic Voice in a long time.

    3) Charge - it's latency possibly if you're running to the wall before it gets off and still being hit... Or... try runniing a 90 degree angle from where she's coming from it is a very wide charge so you might just be barely in range of it, so if she's North and heading South run to be exactly West and see if that works for you.

    Charm cannot be removed or prevented by Esuna or Leeches. The party wide healing debuff from Lunatic Voice can be, however, so that is when Esuna and Leeches becomes essential. Charm can only be prevented by healing the person targeted with the pre-charm to 100% health. The charge is just a straight diameter through the field so anywhere not in her direct line is safe. I find it best to hang out just outside of the centre ring when she jumps so that if she comes down on the edge I have less to run out of her charge than if I were in the middle, sometimes barely even having to move at all if the direction lines up. If she comes down in the middle it's easy to run in from that point.

    Thank you guys for the quick responses! I'll relay this to my Healer ASAP. As for the tips on dodging the charge that...seems to silly that I hadn't actually done that before. Hanging at the edge I mean. I'll give that a go next time I challenge it.

    Adol seems to help lots during Siren for me. If I keep myself with adol, the debuffs don't seem to reach me and the fight becomes less of a burden. I also leech asap. Helps so much to not have to worry about getting charmed. =)

    Healers who are able to efficiently help knock this boss out are legends, and I commend you.

    *any* healer who can get their team through this fight at all should deserve all commendations.
    Thank you good sir. As a healer when i get a tank who stuns lunatic voice the first few times (may be more depending on how geared/skilled dps is) i tend to give them the commendation. DPS deserve credit too if they keep those crawling f**ks off of me, but not using valuable seconds esuna/leeching (depending which class i take) helps a lot in making things run smoother.

    Although not as efficient as stunning, you can also avoid Lunatic Voice by stacking on Siren in the middle when she casts it.

    That's not Lunatic Voice, that's a different attack (AoE charm) and can't be interrupted because she can't be targeted while she's casting it.

    Lunatic Voice is a casted ability that will hit the entire party for relatively large chunk of damage and apply a disease-like debuff on them that will reduce healing received.

    Lunatic Voice is the AoE healing potency down effect, which is why people say to stun/silence it because it can be pretty difficult to recover from if she immediately follows it with a charm since you'll need 4+ rounds of Esuna/Leeches. I forget the name of the single-target charm.
