    Thank you all for the responses. We managed to get a smooth transition once though I'm not sure what we did different.
    Our dps don't need to be replaced. We get 4 meteors even if someone dies to a lunar dynamo or double streams (were a late night raid group and sometimes due to lack of sleep people fail to notice the meteor symbol on their heads and they don't move) lmao
    I think what we have been doing is our mnk LB3's the boss as they land after mega flare. The mnk stays on the boss and the rest of us pop CDs and unload on the boss and first add. I pop raging strikes, bio2, miasma, bio, fester, miasma 2, posion pot, contagion, fester before rs wears off, then save the last aetherflow stack for bane. Our sch started using cleric stance and putting up a few dots. I can get my 3 main dots before the first heaven's fall comes down and the knock back puts me next to him/her for miasma 2+poison pot. Now we just need to practice this enough that we don't have any trouble with it anymore like the golems. Then We might be able to kill the rat with wings.

    IMO the easiest way is Mage LB3 boss and the 1st add.

    BRD times Foe Requium + Battle Voice after Megaflare goes off and before Heavensfall falls down and straight burst at boss and drop dots.

    DPS can split, with 1 DPS, either a SMN or melee continue to push the boss HP's down while others whack the 1st add to approx 50% HP. Your group should be able to drop the 1st dragon HP to at least 60% before mage LB3 hits, then finish the remaining (Mage LB3 should wipe 50% of the add's HP off) or drop it to 50% HP and Mage LB3 would finish it.

    In fact once I push it to about 60%, I swap back to the boss (as a BRD) and reapply the DoTs. If the dragon add still not dead after LB3, then I turn back to help finish it off.

    By now with i110 weapon you should be easily doing 1 add only. (and since you can do 4 meteor on phase 1).

    If you're still short on DPS by a bit, have your SMN cast the LB3, instead of your monk.
    They're the best candidates for DPS LBs because they lose the least DPS during the long cast animation. As long as your DOTs are up, and fester is used right before LB3 is casted, you only lose damage from Ruins.
    Also, don't waste too much damage on the Add, it will most likely die from a single meteor at 60% hp. Everyone should switch back to the boss. If the Add is still alive after meteor just finish it off normally.
