Relying on 9tl, lc, and laser ray on the first boss is the safest way to dps. You definitely want to avoid blinding yourself from being able to see whats happening on the ground with spec ray or lock yourself with casting liner ray for an unworthy burst. Also, dont become too possessed by the numbers from your laser ray and dodge for safety when needed. Safety first, dps second.
Also remember to fast forward often.

If you're not comfortable with dodging stomps, you should practice with it more in the 4man version. The four man version should be enough to not kill you and to look at jump animations until you're comfortable with the timing. (Like with the first boss, I wait until its butt is more pointed towards the ground and then jump.)

Your DPS is as good as your gear, aggression, and survivability.

And again, fast forwarding as often as you can, and timed well, can really improve DPS.

Watch the boss closely.
You will see that he jumps in the air, flips and then goes back on the ground.
Your cue to jump as a sorceress is when you see him flip in the air.
Watch that first, and with practice jumping the stomps will become a second nature, just by watching the colour of the floor.
Stage 1 stomp, stage 2 stomp and stage 3 [phase 1 triple stomp][phase 2 perimiter stomp] and specially [phase 2 triple stomp/tracing spears] have different timing and with practice you'll get used to it.
Rotation should be like this:
First of all, do not mirror in raid nest, because there are other classes that can apply the same debuff without blocking other people.
Then, NTL>LC [if not awakened]>NTL>eraser>laser ray
Under BT, you should spam awakened laser cutter and NTL
Your aim is always to gather enough bubbles to laser ray
I barely use the other awakened skill, unless on the 75% 4 crystal mech at dragon during reflect if needed. DO NOT LASER RAY during reflect or die a painfull death

Only use spectrum when you are sure there won't be stomps, e.g, in s1, after the boss stomped already and summoned the 4 little bears.
Otherwise... all the smoke won't do you any good :v

Ahh thanks!

I did a lot better last week

Glad to know there are more smashers than I thought

I should be fine for all of dragon's stomps.

What's the timing for Mike Tyson's stomp?
