    No need to nerf it. Get better, it's that easy. Sorry if that sounds like I'm being a bit of a jerk with that statement, but it's a pretty easy fight as a SCH (or at least I feel so, having healed this at least 20 times). Healers need to keep the tank up constantly during doubles and triples, so cast Adloquium when you see him start casting Spark after a Double or Triple, and recast it right when the first and second ones are going off (Virus also helps mitigate this massively). When the orbs pop, keep the party up and healed during this phase, unless you wish to help grab the orbs (this is suggested, simply because it allows for less orbs to get through). When the orbs stop coming, and he's about to throw out his giant AoE, throw down Sacred Soil, use a Succor, have Eos (if you're using her) pop a Fey Covenant, Fey Illumination, then Rouse+Whispering Dawn to help mitigate all of this damage.

    Continue fighting him, repeating the above until he pulls out a portal (happens around 20%, so start recasting Eos' moves at around 22-23% so they're on everybody for this). Swiftcast Succor, enter the portal. All your buffs will be on for a long time now. Make sure somebody (preferably the tanks) are standing under the various comets while DPS burns down the Rift thingy (make sure somebody uses LB3 on the thing to speed things up, preferably a melee if there's one in the party). When you get out, it's just the same thing as before until the boss finally croaks.

    This is of course, assuming it's you. In the likely case it is not, explain the fight to people, let them know what to expect and what to do. If you still have problems, you may need to set up a PF, as silly as that is (but I understand, I've had people who still have problems with Titan HM had to PF it).

    It really is a case of people being able to follow simple instructions the fight is not complicated at all. The two reasons I see a wipe are because people didn't listen to instructions about the orbs and just run around taking any colour they are near to the face. It's exactly the same as the first boss in WoD you need to alternate colours to be safe. The other reason and the main cause of wipes is because people panic during the meteor phase. All that will happen is a couple of meteors will drop taken by the Tanks with all their CD's then a tear appears that needs to be nuked so just need a melee DPS to LB3 then just burn it with the healers topping people off. Meteor phase done properly lasts no more than 30-40 seconds.

    Nerfing is not the answer to everything because people learn nothing. Every dungeon,raid,trial etc teaches you something. Some of the new dungeons have stepped up in teaching people coordination and teamwork and that's a good thing.

    Exactly. Doing Steps for the first time. Most of us were new. Atleast one guy in the group had done it before. At the start a few of announced we were new, but that was it no further communication. So we just went at it. After a couple fails and constantly telling people to man the cannons (heck I even tried to man them with full mob in tow) finally made it to the point of the snares and the Dragon killer. Again a couple fails. The one guy who did it before says "someone needs to get on the snares and the tower at that point". Some else finally pipes up "oh now you tell us". I said "no one read the text that popped up on the screen telling you to do that?" No response. Cleared it with 30 seconds left. Ain't got time to read.
