THE FLOOR IS LAVA!! It's a mechanic of the fight that hasn't really changed! It's working as it should IMO.

The floor is layed out like a pizza and goes red before the lava comes up. Move to another slice! The outer ring of the arena is no different, there are only a few things that will put you out there, gotta learn to dodge! If I had to venture a guess at how you landed out there I SUSPECT it went like a lil something like this.

Melee DPSing the dragon, red ring around the dragon showed up, you dodged, as you got close to being out the red he flapped his wings and pushed you far and you went out of the arena. I bring this up because it used to happen to me a lot. There are usually more than one way to see a mechanic coming, if the red circle is too late for you to get out see if you can find the other queue that tells you it's coming! Sometimes it's easier for a tank to see these queue's because IMO they are for them and not necessarily the DPSers. Very different perspective as a tank. If you try to get an extra hit in before dodging well, that's your fault in the timing! Dodge first, get back in quickly.

In my experience in this game, the better you work the mechanics the higher your DPS is going to be and the better your runs will be. Working those mechanics takes practice and also requires the information to be shared. I'm not sure this response helps any, I hope it doesn't sound like I'm being a jerk to you cause that's not my intent here. It wasn't that long ago I didn't know what people meant by a mechanic, once I grasped that concept almost every part of this game can be broken down and completed!
