I disagree that turn 7 is so so hard. It just requires people to pay attention. I have the attention span if a fruit fly and I was able to do it. I rarely if ever turn people into stone.

Yes, it's hard to pug it. But if you don't have a "static" for the hardest coil, you probably aren't going to get far anyway. It just takes one person that isn't willing to listen to how to do the fight to wipe you.

Is it the fact that you can't carry people as easily that makes this fight hard?

We still haven't killed turn 9, and while I'd like to spend more time on it (we only raid 2 days for 2 hours each most weeks), I'm not broken up that we still have farther to go to figure it out. If we killed it already I'd be bored. We aren't hardcore at all. In fact, some weeks we don't even go in the second day.
