Why not just join cleared parties? Since you know what to do? I can tell you from personal experience people still wipe, even funnier when it's the party leader dropping looool.

I'm running a static, and we're hitting our head against Tier 5 and Titan Ex right now and we can't help but feel this was poorly utalized across the board.
There's no expanse when it comes to progression. And while we accept the fact that it's a new game, the linear gear progression is really starting to bear its fangs and Raider's Fatigue is having its effects on us. Not everyone is skilled or has a reliable connection enough to make the split-second reactions needed, especially when you have to compensating for varying lag each time you go on - which is our biggest problem with Titan.
We could 'wait longer' until the Echo continues to make up for such errors, but during that time we'd be sitting on our hands. There needs to be more approaches to endgame than what we have so people have multiple means of progression that don't funnel into one singular dungeon.
lol "stuck on Garuda EX".
Wait til Titan EX
As of right now it's distributed. We have 2 static PS3 players, one of which will be upgrading to PS4. I'm hybridizing Gamepad/Keyboard (I'm the one with the least difficulties.) The rest are PC of various performances. FC leadership shares the same house with a questionable net connection that, due to affordability issues, is not upgrade-able.
We're running Titan Ex on Tuesday evenings as it's our only available day. (We're an RP/Raid FC so RP nights are on Saturdays/Sundays) It seems as if we're gradually compensating on Twintania and there's no certain singular choke-hold point there, we'll likely clear it on the next Echo upgrade or before. But Titan most certainly has been a bottleneck for us for much longer.
And just to be clear, we're not going to roster-swap anyone on a permanent basis. We're all friends. It just feels like there's no alternative gameplay for gear progression. And honestly, there isn't right now. It's kind of aggravating.
