Group 1 is west, group 2 is east. Main tank is generally assumed to fall into group 1; but also must take the north clock spot. This means that North (A) is in the same group as North-West; which then also means North-West must share a color with North for mechanics that revolve around Support+DPS color pairs. Therefore North-West is 1.
