Is Titan That Hard?

I just beat Garuda Hard today pretty convincingly. I keep hearing horror stories about Titan, but after watching the video he doesnt look that hard mechanically. Am I missing something? Im gonna give it a go later on today.

Wach a video of drawing something complicated. Now do it yourself, most likely you won't succeed. Same analogy applies here.

No, people just need to pay attention and learn the pattern

Im a lot better at gaming than I am drawing, so that isnt a good comparison for me.

Garuda you can beat with AF and meh gear. Titan you need to deal very good dps dodge stuff while not in the way of everyone. The most annoying thing are the bombs and Weight of the Land in phase 3. People clip Weight of the Land on to your's or stand to close to you and gives you no way to escape and die.
Titan you should have mostly DL gear not only for the dps or healing but also for the Health. Titan's AOE hurt's, specially in phase 3 (600-800dmg a hit 8 times in a row to everyone).

if you say it is your first time... people leave... just did it right now... no explanation... wipe... and everybody left.... how am i suppose to learn?

Tactics on Titan HM: Don't stand on AoE.

Easy mode for Tank and DPS, hard mode for Healer.

Unfortunately avoiding Landslide is apparently still very luck based for EU players (unless yesterday's maintenance fixed that, Magitek Cannon had similar issues if it was directly centered on me, but I could dodge it now), that attack is the worst AoE EU players need to handle.

Quoting for truth. Titan will break you if you play as a healer. He'll crush your pride.

It's even worse if you have a bad or average connection and tend to be hindered by the AOE delay.
