    Does you have any idea what conditions cause Garuda/Suparna to change from

    Slipstream > Downburst > Friction > Wicked Wheel > Repeat

    to

    Slipstream > Downburst > Wicked Wheel > Friction > Repeat

    ?

    This has been causing me some issues with main tanking garuda. Double Wicked wheel is such a trivial mechanic if I have even a single cooldown up, yet I have no idea how to predict when they will use Wicked Wheel...

    Same goes for melee if you kill suparna first - no way to predict when Wicked Wheel occurs as it can change each pull or even each phase transition.

    Seriously the hardest of all three of the primals at this point.

    My FC has run this a lot and we are pretty sure Garuda and the sisters change what they do based on the others' HP. When DPS is slower Wicked Wheel seems to come out sooner. The main tank in our FC just always does a cooldown after Downburst and it is still up if WW comes out immediately after. If it doesn't he can pop another one or two since he knows when WW is coming by that point.

    @ OP: One thing to remember if you stack up behind Garuda during the Eye of the Storm is that everyone should spread out once all the Razor plumes are dead. Friction will hit less people and will possibly save on healer MP.
