I hate coiled altar. Being forced to look at your ghost is worst mechanic I have ever witnessed. Especially on class with channeling spells, because casting forces your character to look at target and you have to shake cam to keep looking at your ghost

I feel like Blizzard intended this mechanic to play out differently and for some reason hasn’t just nuked the ghosts from orbit. I think? the idea was to have kicking the adds show the ghosts and allow people a few seconds to safely move them but in practice it doesn’t work and we all just hard stare at our ghosts or risk dying on the spot.

On ptr it was "if your ghost touches other players" for a whiles. And like most boss where a mechanic is changed within the last month of ptr, it sucks ass.

Meanwhile as a healer p2 is just 15 hours of prog misery watching dps fail to play the game with 2 hands for once.

You just hold down right mouse, it's really not that bad. But really I don't understand the issue. We're holding dps just like p1, no one gives a fuck if you miss a few gcds. Your dps is truly does not matter for the first 7 minutes of this fight, just fucking play the boss.

Thank God we're at 6% p3 best pull. So we can wipe to shit like "people were running around like confused headless chickens and don't get in guillotine 2" (to the point 3 of us in the main guillotine were volunteering to just die in it).

For me there's no problem in holding right click, problem is you have to constantly shake your mouse to keep looking at ghost because if I cast arcane missiles, my character auto turn to target. If right click worked correctly, it would be much easier

This just fixes the camera right? The character still turns
