Why do most PF groups make DPS South?

Isn't it better for DPS North due to the knockback into the add for more uptime? I cleared with myself (sch) and another SCH with the dps N strat and it seemed much cleaner.

When I put it in PF as DPS N people join and then rage about it without listening about why its better.

A PUG strat has been accepted. Even if N is technically better, it will be ignored as it wasn't the earliest adopted strat.

/sadface.

I wish more people knew about it / willing to try it though instead of the instant rage quit.

Thanks for the quick response.

well generally depends on the position of the vines
by the time knock back happens the north add should be dead

Also being pushed SW would also be up time on the last add instead of NE

once the 1 add dies i go to the left add , until vines knockback and then back to the north 1 , but the left 1 gets some hits meanwhile :P

In my experience it's to accommodate for the tank, but then again so long as people aren't dying left right and center the second needed to close the gap with the boss/add again isn't detrimental or going to cause a wipe. If you prefer the other way make your own party finder and have that be the intended strat. You never know it might catch on, we tried a cheese strat with the tethers today that will likely be my preferred strat going forward if I'm with a trusted tank.

You should be able to hit at least one add regardless of where you go. If it's SE, you can hit the north add from the very corner, or the west add when you break and lose uptime. Everybody loses uptime during that part due to the tether mechanic, and the dps check is so forgiving that it honestly does not matter. There's enough time for melee dashes, ranged to move into a position where they won't get hit and can still hit one of the adds, etc. Still, if the adds die quick enough, dps will lose uptime regardless of if they are positioned north or south. Optimally, the north add will be dead before the knockback even happens.

I know as a dancer I have 100% uptime during that part, so a scholar should have zero issues.

The dps check is a joke to care,
Tank north and dps south is used in other fight too (so the dps get the boss back),
Naturally It is just easier to do for most people

I have this one party with one dps saying they want north..., the result? 4 wipe!

The short answer is because most people in PF are bad. Just pray for SW knockback and beat on Pleaseblossom first instead.

Ive done DPS north and did end up with a nice EX clear, it's definitely better strat than DPS south.
