Two vids:
The first is me farming some golems for my berserker's hoarded worker's sledgemallet. This is pretty easy killing, but shows how I move around with a melee group and keep everyone on target. You'll here gina whining at me by saying "See" everytime my berserker doesn't see his target, and "far" when his target is too far away. This can get pretty annoying but is critical to me keeping my melee team on target. I'm running with selos here, and you can see how easy it is for my team to run around and separate. With Selo's It's not uncommon for /follow to fail here and someone runs circles around my warrior or gets stuck somewhere, but it didn't happen this time. It's especially worse while recording because of the performance hit. As shown in the OP of this thread I have everyone visible at all times, which allows me to easily see when someone gets stuck. You can also see that I regularly make use of press the attack / grappling strike to maneuver the mobs rather than try to move my team.
The second video is me pulling a couple easy packs of mobs around the Myrmidon Tundak Spawn. On this one I popped all my defensive cooldowns and my ranger/bard/beastlord's 100% proc buffs (they are all dual wielding ToT healing proc sticks), so this is a fairly trivial fight. You can see Tucoh's health never drops beneath 90% or so, because he's just getting blasted by ToT healing sticks.
I used Open Broadcasting Software to record, which allows me to show gina timers which I find critical to show what's going on. I have a more verbose description of what those bars are in this thread, but you can see my defensive stuff on the left, my ADPS on the right etc. You can see the I S Boxer grid in the bottom left, which I use to track my bard's vainglorious shout, my ranger/bard/beastlord's 100% proc buffs, my team's horn of unity and my team's circle of power buffs.

On review, I feel like the biggest thing these videos show is that I'm clearly not getting everything I can out of my ranger / beastlord. I mean, my bard is out DPSing them on the two group pull (Though he got half his DPS from vainglorious shout). They are still getting important AAs, but I've got to figure something out for them.
If anyone has any recommendations/critique, feel free. Same with questions, though they may be answered earlier in this thread in this post and the few that follow it:
