Look, NA, I know we all want to greed, I'll be the first to admit I'm greedy af but we have to stop with this uptime mirror mirror 4 strat. It is too risky for the minor reward we get out of it. Honestly, how much extra dmg are you as a tank or melee going to do to the boss if you don't move during mirror mirror 4? Half a GCD? Maybe a full GCD? And all of this while also continuing to use Forsaken and Ilya strat, the latter having been denounced by the very person who created it.
PF pugs require a strategy which has uptime in mind from the conception of the strategy in order to maintain uptime, which is why even though some tanks and melee are capable of keeping uptime in Ilya or Forsaken, most party finder players are not able to. So instead of using one of those strategies, why don't we all take the time to learn one one of the bowtie strats such as Xenosys's Bowtie Strat. Switching to this strat will give the average melee and tank 3-5 extra GCDs over Ilya or Forsaken strat while also boasting more consistency than the "uptime" mirror mirror 4 strategy that has been used in pf until now.
Also, moving the boss does not equal a loss of uptime, using this mirror mirror 4 stragegy which puts the boss in a place such that if you have the ping and reaction time required to pull off the current "uptime" mirror strat, you can still flex that, but if you do not, you are only punished with being push across the arena, a knockback that can be dashed out of btw.
