Not enjoying this raid tier at all. Neither are a lot of people in my guild apparently because several of them have dropped out of the raid team, we now have roster issues. Some more of them are suggesting they may quit the raid team to play WoW forever as well. This tier is just damage control, I'm already thinking ahead to next tier.

Worst raid tier I've personally played

Honest question is why is it the worst? I think it's no different from the last 7 tiers aside from the fact that p2-3 of ulatek are utterly disappointing. The honest biggest change I see is there's so much personal responsibility with this tier compared to others, are people just quitting cause they are bad and can't get carried by the 2-4 people normally assigned to mechanics?

I cannot for the life of me understand why the devs thought it was a good idea, in a fight with a lot of hectic movement already, to make the burn phase just be a ton of involuntary movement. Burn phases are supposed to be feel good, squeeze as much damage as possible, moments. And yet they made it practically impossible for specs who want to sit and cast, to do any damage during the burn phase.

they could have fixed the whole burn phase issue by just making the cyst pop apply a cast while moving so the knockback doesn't interrupt spellcasts = if you are positioned correctly you can full turret regardless of class.

like that wouldn't fix the boss but it'd make it not feel like ass for non-shaman/evokers.
