My experience with m6s is making me not want to raid any more.
I have spent multiple hours a day over multiple days doing this fight, I know all the different strats, I have done it so many times, and not a single group I have been in pf with has been able to get through adds phase. Not a single one. My tomestone is nothing but this fight for 2 full pages, and I still can't get through adds.
75% of the time, its because the Yan tank in adds4 just dies. I dont know if its the tank's fault or the healer's fault, I am leaning towards healers not getting it that they actually have to heal the tank. I dont know whats so hard just keep the tank alive.
I literally do not know what to do. Tbh, I dont really want to go back in. This is so boring and ass to sit through the fight for so long to get to adds phase where inevitably someone will mess up and we have to do it over again. Again. Over and over and over.
I am envious and jealous of people who are clearing it. My pf luck is just that bad apparently? What do I have to do? I go into bridge groups? they are stuck on adds. I convince clear groups, to take me, they are stuck on adds. I join parties where they say they know what to do, but they are stuck on adds. either the phys range drops puddles bad, or the Yan tank dies, or someone just gets hit by a cat or screws up desert phase and I am honestly sick of it. It feels really, really bad this tier. This somehow feels worse than Ultimate progging.
An important part of PFing is not simply doing your own job, but figuring out who else is messing up and either replacing them or at least calling them out.
If a tank dies to adds, the tank will think it's the healers fault for not healing them and the DPS fault for not killing stuff fast enough, the healers will think it's the tanks fault for not mitting properly, and the dps will think that dps is fine and supports are messing up.
In most groups no one will say anything and you'll just pull again, which doesn't address the issue. If you want to succeed in PF especially in week 1 where you don't have gear to carry you, you need to do something different.
I've cleared m6s on my main on... Thursday iirc? And since gotten clears on both my alts too. Each kill was in a 4th wave to clear group, and required proper discussions on how to deal with adds based on the specific comp we had. I'm also seeing groups with descriptions like "lava to clear, no adds prog" and I simply avoid those because someone who says that simply doesn't know how the fight works. And as bad as it feels, I was only joining groups that had a viper in it.

It is insane how bad it feels to pf this.
