This is worse when you have tanks play around with the Dragon's agro. I've seen entire alliances get hit by the cone.

Anyways you'll see lots of people who seem to find it a popular way to handle the fight. As said, mostly from Primal lol.

True melee... but of course! I'm the guy that runs circles around the very center of the Angra Mainyu arena while Roulette is spinning, all while still wailing on the boss, because I don't trust people to kill the last hourglass at the right time.

My experience has been that healers and ranged sit on the first platform in the row, and when Demon Eyes (is that their name, I can never remember) spawn, the OTs pick them up and tank them on the second platform, behind the rest of the party and facing away from them.

Tanks fighting over dragon aggro.... ugh. That right there is why I usually go as tank.

And I'm surprised to see that it's a popular method on Primal. Huh. Go figure.



Note to self: don't ever DF/PF on Hyperion *shudders*
