Stuck

Ever been stuck on a boss? I mean stuck like you've watched all the videos, read all the strats, tried every variation you can think of and STILL can't kill a boss? It's very frustrating to say the least and my guild is going though it now.

It's Atramedes. Yes yes, I know. He's not a hard fight. Super easy on 10m as well, but for some reason on 25 my guild cannot get this guy down. Our best attempt tonight was 29%, but that was pure luck (imo). We can do 50% every time, but after that, people end up dieing. This is especially frustrating when there is nothing you can do to help as a healer. There isn't a real stringent healing requirement on this fight, everyone has to stay out of the bad stuff or they get a full sound meter and get one-shot by Modulation. I have people getting 20-30 hits of the sound rings even though the raid leader is really good about reminding people that keeping your sound low and not getting hit with anything is the priority in this fight. It doesn't help that we pug 2-4 slots every week, but some of our better pugs are joining up every week. But still, DON'T STAND IN THE BAD STUFF is a fairly core game mechanic for all players, isn't it?
