Connecting the DoTs: A Summoner Guide

Just to set the record on this, the logic to use Ifrit is true, however in 3.0, he can't (or barely ) competes against Garuda in the current instances as she functions too seamless with the 3.0 Smn toolkit.

Would appreciate any advice, thank you!

I keep Garuda on the add and bring down to about 20%. At that point, I'll refocus her and prepare to feed immediately. In the last phase, it is better to let a melee handle the adds with carnage zero because they can bring it down faster and feed safer in that phase, however, if you must grab one, then assuming no sacrifice you will likely need 3 AF stacks to burn down that add with a 2fester/1 Painflare combo to feed it on time.
