p1s pug strat

[MegaSquirrel]

Hello all,

Just wondering what the 'color partners/timers' strat people are using in pugs for this fight is all about. I can't find anything explaining it, but it sounds needlessly complicated compared to how my group did it.

I'm trying to get a friends alt a page run, but I don't want to slow down a pug because I don't know how they are doing things...

Its actually quite simple
the markers are roughly as follows from entrance perspective:
1_____2
___A___
__D_B__
___C___
4_____3

edit: underscores instead of spaces as they disappear from the post

now the timers for fourfold is 1-A 3s, 2-B 8s, 3-C 13s, 4-D 18s
atleast thats how i did with 2 practice groups and killed with third, obviously reds on numbers, purples on letters
the color partners are for the swaps, if for example 1 gets purple whe swaps with A, usually MT, or if A gets red debuff
since the colors match the numbers you can go with swaps as 1-A 2-B 3-C 4-D so everyone has to watch out for self and partner only

This is the timers strategy:



You position in order according to the remaining time you have on your debuff, purple debuff inside the boss, red debuff on max melee range.

The chains will pop in a clockwise order.

This strategy is good because you can position once, with minimal need for on-the-fly thinking, and just slam the boss for 20 straight seconds without moving at all.
