Avoidable damagemelee stack stood in the spear circlesGuardian DruidHyporockBad pulla demon pulled another pack from rangeDemo Lock

The first wipe came from Warbringer spears landing on the melee stack, and that cast has no interrupt.

The group killed both bosses, then wiped twice on the Beasttamer packs after Sentinel of Winter. At 21:54 a Grizzled Warbringer's Poison Spear Volley landed on Guardian Druid and Hyporock while they stood together in melee. Guardian Druid was hit by two spears at once, and each spear hits harder than a damage dealer's full health. With the tank dead, the pack killed the other three within 11 seconds. Volley cannot be interrupted, so the wipe came from where the melee stood. The second wipe started when Demo Lock's demon pulled another pack from range. That pack's Stormbound Mystic stayed out of melee reach until its Arc Lightning killed two players.

Fast presses and clean spenders

Your average delay per press was 0.10 seconds (key_delay.py), at the fast end of your recent keys. You also sent fewer Final Verdicts into big packs than in any of your last 35 keys (rowb_audit.py).

High confidence
The one change

PRESSAvenging Wrath

WHEN
When Wings comes back in the last half minute of a boss
WHY
On The Hoardmonger it sat ready for the last 30 seconds of the fight (rowb_audit.py). On Sentinel of Winter it sat ready for the last 16.
PAYOFF
In this log you did about three times as much damage inside Wings as outside it on these bosses, and it would have come back within seconds of when you used it on the next pack.

What to change, biggest first

  1. Walk out of the spear circles when the Grizzled Warbringer finishes Poison Spear Volley
  2. Pull a ranged Stormbound Mystic around a corner, or keep a ranged kick for it
  3. Hyporock: press Wings when it comes back on a boss, even under 10%
  4. Resto Shaman: Astral Shift when your health starts sliding

What the group changes together

At 21:17 the Warbringer was dragged into the Beasttamer pack, so the party fought it, three Beasttamers, two Totemcallers, three Saberfangs and a Mystic at once. With that much incoming damage, a melee stack that stays in the spear circles loses the tank. Late in the key Demo Lock's Grand Warlock Alythess cast Blaze on a pack about 40 yards away and pulled it into the fight. That pack's Stormbound Mystic stayed back, beyond any melee kick. Its Lightning Bolts hit Resto Shaman twice and its Arc Lightning killed Sub Rogue and Demo Lock. When a caster stays at range, pull it around a corner or keep a ranged kick for it.

Notes

Where the numbers need a second look

Was the first wipe a missed kick

No. One cast did get through in that second. Hyporock's Rebuke reached the Mystic's Lightning Bolt 0.014 s after it finished, but the bolt had not hit him when the spear did. Poison Spear Volley has no interrupt flag in Mythic Dungeon Tools. None of its 33 casts in the five Den logs since 09-25 was kicked, and only 3 of them hit anyone. The +16 of 09-29 took no spears from 15 Volleys. Here each spear hit for about 1.05M, against Hyporock's 990k health.

Hyporock's rotation, by the Ret tools

key_delay.py: 0.10 s mean delay per press, 0.09 s with a spender ready, p90 0.24 s; his 19 keys since 10-05 range 0.09 to 0.19 s. rowb_audit.py against his 35 rowB keys since 10-03: Wake went out with 94% of Wings (average 81%) and Final Verdict hit 3+ targets on 8% of casts (average 18.5%). Wings sat ready 87 s per 10 fighting minutes (average 66 s), mostly at the end of both bosses. In the wipe pull his Wings came 11.7 s after his first press, against 1.0 to 2.9 s in the other pulls. Coiled Fangstone went out on all 18 Wings.
