I BEAT TITAN

[ N O S T A L G I A ]

geez what's with all the necros lately

Personally some of my most proud fights are actually low level dungeons and/or trials in DF where I had to make up for other people not playing well.

For example I queued up for a roulette trial and ended up in The Navel (normal, not even Hard) as AST and the fight was barely started when 1 dps got knocked off the platform and the remaining people took avoidable damage like dodging didn't exist (At one point the tank was at 100%, ate avoidable damage and less than a second later he was dead, I had to rez him and tank Titan while healing myself until he got threat back).

The fact that we didn't wipe because I tanked as a healer for a short bit, saved the tank (who thankfully learned to dodge after that), did DPS mechanics and damage, while also healing the party...well that was a pretty good feeling.

This is why I have mixed feelings about people who don't play well. It's frustrating to have things become much harder than they need to be , but at the same time it provides a real challenge to easier content.

No, back then it was Titan Hard. EX wasn't a thing yet.

Yeah, from the little bit I was able to gather, this was a Gamescom challenge back from 2013 doing Hard Mode. Here's the dev blog about this, for interested parties.

But seriously, let's have a fun little chat. What was the last fight, dungeon or trial otherwise, where you felt a true sense of accomplishment? Mines was O3S. The feels were real after spending an entire month learning every thing about the fight every night.

Twintania. My friends were very busy at that time and scheduling was hard. But we eventually done it a few weeks before it was put into Duty Finder with Echo bonus. Pride points! XD

Also Nael sipped on my tears for a good long while, but I never cleared this with my friends. It was on another level of commitment that my busy friends couldn't properly be there for and practice enough. I ended up clearing it with another group of friends, but not my fren-friends. I have a sort of PTSD effect when I hear the initial Turn 9 music start up, if I ever do it unsynced(lol). That feeling of dread...

Played White Mage mainly in 2.0.

I would have to say Final Steps of Faith for me. I did the fight when it was still relevant and it was fairly difficult. Took a few wipes but we eventually finished it up.

I do wish I was able to complete the Singularity Reactor when it was a relevant fight. I finished it around 3.2 time frame but I have always thought that was one of the best put together fights in any MMO.

Tried pugging A8s for almost 18 months. Finally clears unsynched but with a very knowledgeable teacher. This fight is still hard unsynched

Thanks! It’s still unforgiving unsynched but I admire people who cleared this when it was relevant
