I've never seen a raid tier where people are turning into adamant fanboys of a particular clear strat over understanding mechanics before and I have no idea what the heck is causing it.
Last tier people could pug through the savage eden tier roughly okay. This tier, there are groups of people that are basically trying to get through Fulmination savage and seem to just be adamant on either Circle Strat or Triangle strat, when the only thing that matters is that you have a minimum of 3 people alive on a particular side juggling a freaking lightning bolt.
The result of this has been group after group basically wiping to this mechanic, or wiping to something like Step leader, because they are rigid in how they want to do the mechanic to the point of blowing themselves up. What's more, this is happening to groups of people that have literally seen the enrage!
I don't know what to say to people, but everyone needs to stop adhering to rigid strategies before even mastering the survival aspect. No PF group that is running practice or duty completion can afford to be trying to be rigid on CL positioning. FYI, this isn't even getting into the later fights as it seems like this same kind of rigid behavior has been going on all the way to E8.
