HP of Titan's Heart

Google failed me on this so I thought I'd ask here. Has anyone calculated the total HP of Titan's heart? Knowing that the phase lasts around 70 seconds it should be fairly easy to figure out exactly what the required DPS rate is for success.

Too many variables to make a "minimum DPS value" other than a guesstimate.

What I mean is this:

* Some groups have healers DPS to help.
* Tank DPS varies.
* Some groups build limit breaks differently for it.
* DoTs don't always report properly in DPS parsers.
* Two people get caught in a prison during that phase which can greatly alter your group's DPS for a moment or five.

So, I mean. You could reach the conclusion that, for example, your party needs to sustain 1000 DPS for 60 seconds. While that's a nice ballpark, it definitely doesn't mean you should try to get 4 people who pull 250 DPS, because there's those four other variables up there that can invalidate the minimum value.

People are being enough of a bunch of elitists about needing DL+relic to run AK/CM/Prae, not to mention Titan due to frustrations. Let's please not try to find a way to give those people another measurement tool so they can go "LFM Titan, you must do at least X DPS, if you don't have a DPS meter or parser you can't join us". We have enough divides between the endgame community as it is.

I worked it out myself and it appears the Heart has about 38000-40000 HP.

Now I agree there are a LOT of variables so I calculated based on worst case scenario. In this scenario the tank is somehow doing 0 damage and no one but the DPS is doing any damage with no DoTs applied. Assuming you have 60s of actual damage dealing time, you need to sustain 40000/60 or 667 DPS collectively. This works out to 133.3 DPS per DPS slot with 5 DPS in the party or 167.7 DPS with 4. This number again is assuming there's no DoTs and the tank is somehow doing 0 dmg. This also ignores the burst damage of a potential Limit Break. If you assume that the tank can muster even 85-90 DPS then you can knock at least 5100 HP off the total and the DPS would be in charge of 581.6 DPS collectively or 116.3 DPS each for 5 DPS (145.4 for 4 DPS). Those numbers are completely within the realm of a modestly geared DPS. You would also knock a bit off the top of the 4 DPS numbers if it's a DF group since you would roll a second tank that would act as a DPS. Knock a little less off if you're running a 3 healer group and one is in charge of adding DPS to the heart.

Of course there's the rock jails, but also keep in mind that your DPS should be hoarding CDs through phase 3 in preparation for unloading on the heart so for that 60 second period the DPS should all be pushing above their average DPS for the fight and again adding even a level 1 Limit Break will reduce the required DPS a fair amount. LB1 does in the neighborhood of 4600 damage on my relic DRG so even if I got jailed twice I wouldn't be that far off my total required DPS for the phase and well over it if I didn't get jailed.
