So, after raiding Algalon for an hour. I noticed some key differences in the way we were trying it, and the way Ensidia beat it. Being spread out all over the room is good for cosmic smash, but it sucks for keeping constellations off healers. I don't know if it's possible, but if we get more black holes down, the kiters(hunters) can kill the constellations much quicker. For example, Ensidia had four black holes down before constellations spawned and two constellations died as soon as they spawned because of that. Also, if we can stay in only half of the room, black holes are much closer to people and it's possible for everyone to get into one before big bang even if there is only one hole up. Also i noticed a couple times people going into black holes for big bang with a constellation agrro'ed on them. You HAVE to make sure that you put some distance in between you and the constellation before going into the hole because if you close the hole, you just killed people. Don't be afraid to ask for help. Optimally, no constellations will be on anyone but me or another kiter but if not, don't kill the raid by going to the hole with a constellation right on your ass.
