Hey all I feel like I'm letting my team down a bit and would appreciate some help in optimizing my gameplay.
I've gone back and forth between Chrono and FS but I think Chrono feels more consistent for me. Here is a log for review. I'd greatly appreciate your inputs, thank you for your time.
#Pres M Ovi'nax Review - Would appreciate the help!

Did you preload a Stasis?
On Ovinax that's not really necessary.
There isn't much dmg happening prior to the first canister.
What I do is hard cast Echoes and TA after the pull as the heal Absorbs are more important to clear.
I normally run Flameshaper in raid though.
But now that I'm no longer able to Mythic Raid I can just goof around with whatever I want.
As Chronowarden you want to be playing into your Hero talent that gives SB a HoT so you wanna make sure you have echoes on as many people as possible. Preferably Hard cast echoes as they are more powerful that TA echoes.
Good sequencing for the Canisters is key for Ovinax

Hey! Thank you for the response! I have been preloading Stasis pre-pull for 3x TAs into raid wide Lifebind EC on canister 1.
Good point about SB hot.... Haven't been playing around that as much as I should.
Thank you for your inputs!

I think what he's saying is that the start of Ovi'nax is so light on healing that you don't need to pre-load stasis to get a nice echo coverage by the time the damage is ramping up on first canister. Including pre-pull casting, you have about 20 seconds to prepare. You might not have coverage of all 20 people, but you're not healing alone.
This then means you can then use Stasis for something soon after that. If you plot the damage taken events in wowlogs, you can see there's a period soon after first canister where the intensity becomes quit high and a classic stasis (TA, SB, DB) would be nice. Or whatever Flameshapers do 😅
In fact, you could choose to not even use EC during first canister and use something else instead. Depends on your healing assignments and lead of course. If you check out lorrgs (https://lorrgs.io/spec_ranking/evoker-preservation/broodtwister-ovinax?difficulty=mythic) , you can see that many top parses use EC around the 45-50s mark instead. However, do note that these are Flameshaper specs.

Flameshapers would simply 4 stack TC >VE > Stasis > DB > Engulf > Engulf
Then follow up with the next dmg event.
If you time it right you can just barely get your stasis Engulf out as the next dmg comes in.
Or you can release it immediately in the first canister.
Which let's you set up a standard EC ramp for the first/second egg pops.
