Best advice for CT: Turn off alliance chat. And probably party chat, too.

lol, no sometimes you have very good group taking leadership so useful to leave chat open. Yes it does happen even now that 3 groups are nice

But when you see drama, just get some popcorn and laugh

I find it easier for Thanatos not to grab aggro on any Nemesis if I'm the one in my alliance MT'ing it. If someone's in immediate peril, of course, but I try to avoid it and play off tank role (i.e. disrupt dark mist/void fire) on any that are currently being attacked and let the other tank actually have the aggro on them. It turns into a mess if you're tanking one and then turn invis, she's not dead and she follows you. Dark Mist in the middle of your melee dps ftw.

Positioning Iron Giants, I tend to pull them away from the wall a bit, then bring them back in at an angle so that they aren't standing in the tornado; it's kinda fiddly though, cause you also have to make sure they aren't cleaving the towers with that huge-ass sword. A little experimentation will get you the right position where your melee can still effectively dps it but it's not destroying the architecture. :3

Bad idea. Party and alliance chat can be fun and/or informative if you have a good group.

Not to mention turning it off is a great way to end up MT'ing KB without realizing it. xD
