Melee DPS will never be in range of anything capable of Wicked Wheel -- Suparna loses the ability to WW once Chirada dies. Cleanest melee DPS method with good tanks.
2) Split method, reportedly favored by the Japanese. MT takes Garuda only, OT takes Suparna, and the DPS will take Chirada and beat her senseless without a tank. Once Chirada is down, head over to Suparna, who can't WW anymore. Spiny goes to either tank, because neither moves.
3) Pure ranged method. MT takes Garuda and Chirada, OT takes Suparna. DPS slaughter Suparna from their safe spot, then switch to either Chirada or Garuda. You can ignore Chirada altogether and use tank LB to survive linked attack each sister phase. Results in quick kills, especially if you're overgeared, but technically risky as it requires tank LB and needs everyone topped off every time.
If you see anything else at all, then someone screwed up and needs to fix it. Never split DPS between sisters. It's a bad strategy which maximizes buff time on sisters and Garuda and turns the spiny swap into a total mess. This is only ever done because of incompetent tanks and is wholly pointless compared to the split method. Among those things I see people try, this is pretty much the only one which is outright wrong.
