On the other hand, I kinda feel if you're level 70, you should have a good enough grasp of what to do by now.

Seriously exactly this.. No amount of nerfing (or hand holding) well make people get better. People who want to get better will, those that don't just won't. Simple as that, & and if you still can't dodge or w/e after going through 4 YRS WORTH of content (and basically seeing every machinic this game has to offer & repeated multiple times in multiple pieces of content in the process) then just no helping you lol (with the exception of jump potion users, but reguardless) PLZ DO NOT NERF THIS EPIC FIGHT, its was amazing and to see this end up as a shell of itself (looking at you Original Steps of Fate) would be dishearting.. I love this fight, love helping people/friends clear it, plz do not nerf it...
It is not like they are throwing mechanics that are new. We have seen all these. The fire/water mech, ice from Shiva, stack mech, move away marker (the line mech that goes with that), bacon weave, anytime there is a huge ground aoe. I don't know, I would think after seeing these mechs over and over again people would get the idea. If not, those people need to make themselves vocal and/or Google the fight. SE does the handholding for us throughout the game to prep us for this fight. So imho, it doesn't need nerfed. People need to pay attention. Yoshi-P even said that this expansion was going to be much more mechanic heavy vs last expansion. I feel as though a lot of people still think they can muscle their way through mechanics or the mechanics are going to forgiving.
TL; DR: SE has shown us all these mechanics already throughout the game. SE warned us this was a mechanic heavy expansion. People need to learn it's ok to ask for clarification/help, Google stuff, and pay attention.
It's not just player competence that's the issue here. SE made this guy more like a raid boss than an end-of-story boss. I think it would have helped if Verity vendors unlocked as soon as you get finished with Ala Mhigo. If they're gonna make him raid-style strength then they should let us gear up... or just nerf the bugger a little. It took me 5 tries in a single group on my first go through to defeat him (using 70 class gear), so it IS possible, but the difficulty is a mite too hard for pugging.
Think of it as a test to see if you're ready for the end game.
