over 100 runs and couldn't make i wish i could find a group like this in my server to help me
The main problem is that it's not about your individual skill, it's relying on 7 others to be able to do their job also. It's surprisingly rare to find a full group of 8 who know what they're doing and can execute it flawlessly. It's surprisingly easy to find 7 who don't have a clue how to dodge.
Even with competent people, you get 2 people with .5 second delay and the weights eat them alive. Thank you OP for posting these things.
That's like the coolest fight vid I've ever seen. Wow, you are an amazing healer! Can't believe that.
Oh and amazing tanking too. I have qued up over 200 times in duty finder for Titan HM. None of the tanks I've healed would be able to keep hate if I healed like that even with popping shroud when getting orange hate.
does it ever occur to you that the party you make up there, even if 1 single lone person screw up your fucking group will wipe? And do you ever think about how hard it is to get someone as competent as your ownself?
People are not paying because the dont have skill. They are paying for the PARTY.
1 dps get hit by aoe = no dps for heart
1 heal get hit by aoe = no heal (the healer in the first vid have +1 relic, healing medica 2 for 800-900hp while normal healer in DL can only medica 2 for 400 max)
1 screw up in 3:3:3 bomb while the last 3 is at tank/titan position then titan will fucking land slide checkmate the whole party.
Awesome of you Rae. +5
If you can't kill the heart while losing a DPS, your group is not up to it. You tend to leave a DPS in the rock for half of that phase anyway.
Swiftcast + Raise. Oh look, you have your healer back.
And that doesn't happen... It's your fault for getting hit by that. XD It's completely avoidable. And WORST case, you stand on top of one bomb and take the hit. Anyone can survive that, and if you can't, you're clearly undergeared.
rez = weakness + no mana, if you want to medica remove that you have to channel for 2s while aoe flying around while looking out for titan nuking your newly-rez-freezed healer.
1 dead dps + 1 jailed dps in titan = no fucking way to dps titan heart unless LB lv 3
the OP is wearing full darklight with allagan pieces and he still has 3.5k HP, bomb hit for 3.5k damage, go figure.
WHM and SCH both have abilities to regain MP. Chances are, you have a Bard in your group, too.
Seen it happen many times without a level 3 limit break, actually.
Uh, yeah... Bombs don't hit for that much. On anyone. Unless you get hit by MORE THAN ONE, which is your fault.
What an amazing ending! lol
Are you still doing these? I need some experience on titan hard.
.
ill buy a titan run for 100k im on balmung tho
Titan for Tots live!!! Tune in to try your luck on the duty finder!!! www.twitch.tv/raelton, Good Luck!
That video alone has given me pretty good motivation to finally cap. That looks so fun to do if you're chill.
I just ran into these tot love'n Titan farmers! They carried my friend and I hardcore. I am a White Mage and my buddy is a Warrior.
My buddy and I had finally got our materia together for our Relics today. We got them melded and headed on our way.
We get a Chimera group together and down him in a couple tries. Our bard learned quick, buddy Warrior learned quick. Was fun to earn something in this game.
We forgot to make a Reservation at Cafe Ala AK, so we had to wait 35 minutes to dine. No big deal. We grub'd quickly and moved on.
A couple more FCmates had promised to help us with our relic and they all logged in just in time for Hydra! Bam! We've all done it before. Wasn't even like we had to try.
Our FC's other tank logged on right in time for Ifrit. This other good buddy has done an endless amount of Ifrits and has yet to find his sword. He's stun'd through so many ifrits he need's a new keyboard. We que up, get the white's geared group I've seen in a good long while. I explain the fight. We got the tanks. I'm the healer. Our first run we got dps running into multiple charges rather than standing still afk'n. BTW that's my favorite way to die in Ifrit. You could stand still and eat one and be fine, but no you want ot move so you eat 2 and die. You have to put in extra effort to die. That's just funny. But back to story. We're through nails, Ifrit isn't really low yet, but we lose all our dps and other healer to a resist explosion and then the group up plumes. Worst time to DR stun. Ugh. I do have a level 3 LB so after the charge I get everyone up. The healer makes it, we lose a dps our 2 to outside plumes, but stabilize and kill the boss. It was the first time I pulled off a level 3lb healer raise and it didn't instant just wipe everyone again. AND GUESS WHAT! Our good buddy stun tank got his weapon! Boy did he deserve it.
The whole point my good buddy has gone Warrior was we never got an Off tank for our FC. He's a dragoon whore. Literally. His screen name has had lancer in it for over 20 years. He's a goon at heart. We kept struggling in Garuda cause we could never find a good off tank. We're finally here. We're finally ready. We get as much of our FC together as we can and jump in. We've seen the fight. We've done it as an FC to below 5% many times, but always end up losing a dps and getting behind on green add heals. But this time we got tanks that know their positions, I mark myself for the newer ranged dps to follow, and we go to work. We knock her down on our 3rd try.
Now my buddy and I are not quite geared for Titan. We got our AK gear and some DL, but aren't decked out yet. We've also never even tried it. We decide we should grind out some more Philo/Mytho's and get the last couple pieces of gear. For some random reason I tell my buddy we should try Titan so we can at least get a feel for the bombs before we start doing groups for it. We've checked out MrHappy's youtube video and learned the bomb formations already, so I say let's get a shot on DF. My buddy is apprehensive but I tell him no one wants a War tank anyways, the PLD will do it! He agrees and we que up.
The second we zone into the Titan instance I see the healer has some 3600hp. My first words to my buddy were "This healer is geared!" These silly guys start spam'n for HQ Tots! I didn't get it. I wanted to be in on the joke. I like jokes. Whatever. They pull and start rock'n it. None of the DPS are getting hit by anything. They stack tight when Titan jumps. And most of all this other freak'n healer is steal'n all the fun. So I focus on my dodge'n and try not to die. Still no dps are taking damage. Heart pop's out and it gets blown away. Wow. The circle bomb formation pop's out and I mark the first bomb so my buddy knows where to run. It goes smooth. Second bomb was the X formation. Again smooth. Then the 3x3. Oh snap we lived through it. Still dps aren't taking damage. Then I newb up. When a circle spawns on my feet I run out towards and over lap'n dps's circle. I make it out of mine but not out of his and go boom. Good learning experience. The next 3x3 of bombs gets my buddy. We sit there and talk about what we did wrong as the group carries on. We figured it out and were ready for another go. But they didn't die. Titan has a good 50% HP left and they just kept going. My buddy and I are sit'n there giggle'n as they dodge every aoe, avoid every bomb, heal through every aoe. Still they don't die. A couple minutes later they've downed Titan and the White Mage healing weapon dropped. Zomg!
So now we're sitting here farming Philo's cause we never expected to be on this step already :)
Thanks so much. It was the most epic first Titan experience that could ever be done. For every whiny DF story ever, their pain could never approach how awesome this was.
On a side note: We have a guildy that spent over 30 hours trying to get his Relic in the 2nd/3rd week. He racked up a repair bill on titan that started to bankrupt him. Just getting to tell him we got carried through on our first attempt is the best tease ever.
Thanks again <3
Why can I never get you on DF.. Up to 94th time, lol .. :( starting to really hate this xD
Titan for Tots is done for the day!
Titan for Tots ftw :D
Thanks for the kind words and positive feedback guys.
Much <3 from Behemoth.
We plan on doing this for content now and in the future.
Didn't really believe it when I saw the spam-shout "Titan for Tots." I was already in a group for Titan about to enter the instance. I managed to find their Twitch channel and watched the group continuously one-shot Titan over and over, carrying multiple people in each run. By the end of the night, they had officially carried 39 different people and helped them get their relic weapon.
With just one tank, one healer and 3-4 DPS they managed to consistently best Titan, regardless of whether the carried died or not. I even watched the WHM kill Titan on his own in the end with his Aero ability. It was pretty epic. I'm pretty sure you can watch a video of that on their Twitch channel. http://www.twitch.tv/raelton
Props to them for making our server better and helping out those of us that are less fortunate. This is the first time I've ever seen this amount of kindness in any MMO community ever.
Keep up what you're doing. You guys rock.
That was hilarious. Nice
I didnt read the whole thread or watch the video past 5 seconds. All I can say, is "charity my ass".

You forgot to edit this out of the first half second of your video.
I'm speechless after seeing that WHM's heals in that video.
Raelton for president!
I really enjoyed watching your stream last night. You guys seem really down to earth and legit seem to be having fun helping people. I wish we had more players like you guys.
Tots up!!!
Now I'm hungry for tater tots :(
