    Trust me, you don´t... all up to T8* is a choreography, as long as everyone on team pays attention, no need to voice chat. It can be a real debuff on concentration, especially when you have people chatting while raiding (they tend to talk bul**** when they fail and concentration is fading)

    it just makes things easier cause you can lead the group like a soccer-trainer, but in a good raidgrp, everyone should know what to do, especially BB is just a time to breath move...

    Sticking Rafflesia to Focus Target is good, and BB is somewhat predictable, cause the first one goes off at phase shift, and the others come after honey - bee spawn - chain... so when the chain comes, be prepared to stop...

    *can´t talk about T9 due to lack of experience

    this^ 100%

    idk why this is so hard for people... if you arent fully paying attention to the fight/mechanics then you deserve to die and are to blame for making your statics progress come to a halt.

    Yup. And healers shouldn't be moving during bouquet times in any case (and it's safe to land a heal during the cast time). If someone doesn't notice their screen going yellow, I don't know how they deal with everything else.

    never understood it myself, they should be seeing the casting bar long before they read their chatboxes

    Some of our healers are busy focusing on the tank to notice it and I can sympathize with them. That's why I have a macro with a sound so they can "hear it" rather than reading their chat box or seeing the cast bar.

    If your healers are focused so much on the tank, I'm not sure how they managed to heal t5. That one demanded learning to optimize your ui and keep track of multiple critical displays. By the time people see the macro or hear it, reaction time after might be too long to help anyway.

    OP asked for macro and it turned into debate about being focused during the fight
    I don't see the point of not using macro (or any other legit method supporting your team's success) if it is available and possible.

    Also using macro being an indicator of party's inability to perform their role? cmon. True, that fights are predictable, but when the shit hits the fan and you get distracted, warning macro can save the day

    if you get distracted to the point that you dont notice your WHOLE screen going yellow... then a warning marco will not do anything to save you.

    just wanted to come back & say the macro worked like a charm and my group finally made it to phase 3 of the fight.
