How to do Titan EX if i live in S.America

Hello, I want to know if there's a way to do an ex primals if you live in Colombia, even with any game proxy, I just can't do it.

Where do I have to live to beat titan ex even ONCE? Montreal?

I have been playing since july on beta, and only took a 1 month break in january.

Since 2.1 came, I only could beat garuda ex, at least in garuda you wont fall, over dodging doesn't work, using a proxy neither.

I cant pay 1 million gil for a carry for a ex primal, even T5 seems easier, how many months passed with 2.1 and still can't do it...

Memorize the pattern? its highly predictable for a reason.
If you know plumes is coming, be ready and just go.
Reaction time can be cut in half or better if you know what exactly is coming.

I live in Argentina, my ping is about 180 ms, and I can dodge almost everything. How big is your latency there? Did you try to "ping" the Datacenters? Maybe if you switch to another Datacenter/server, you might improve your overall latency.

You could have a horrible ping and still beat this fight. You need to memorize the pattern and anticipate when the moves are going to come out and pre move before they do. The moves will always be used in the same order.

210 ping min

1) swap lightning hairstyle out
2) change to a respectable race
3) victory

Good reflexes and practice.

Hi, just replied a thread yesterday. You can have a read, it may help you.:)

210ms ping is not even much, Titan EX is totally beatable with that ping, shouldn't even be an issue after some practice. Keep in mind your true delay is actually generally half of your ping, ping is the time it takes for the signal to reach the destination AND for the reply to reach you.

In before the word "elistists" is used.

Mate I play from NEW ZEALAND and I have the Extremes on farm....

sure latency sucks but it's not impossible... you will get better, just keep trying.

Those pools are a pain the butt.

One tip also: don't wait to see other people move. By then they are already actually somewhere else. Move right away no matter what. Even if it interrupts that perfect move or spell.

You're only options are:

A. move to North America or Japan.
B. Start a petition to get SA servers set up.

I suggest B as it's no cost to you.

i live in middle east which more farther from you i beaten titan EX more than 10 times

not to mention im PS3 player too

so 30 FPS additional limit on me too

but still i never get a single hit from titan EX

I haven't had the need in this game given that the game is really responsive, but maybe try a premium vpn? like battleping or wtfast, I'm not sure however if that violates ToS in here, might wanna check that out first.

400ms here on 2gb net speed :D , my 1st time on ex i got hit by landslide about in second after pull , followed by plumes lmao . with this stuff i really dislike to play instances more than 1ce or twice at all (coil is exeption cuz it already learned 100% how/where to move/premove) .

I live 9071 miles away from the server, i'm an asian playing on a NA server and I could clear the 3 EX primals every week, I do use VPN to help latency though.

That sucks man! Hope you could get way better ping than that. Usually ping less than 150 ms are way better to deal with Titan. But recently I learn that it is possible to anticipate even in Titan X, similar like how we deal Titan Hard. It has smaller gap than Hard version, but it's doable.

The main problem you might have to deal though are actually not landslide not plumes/wotl, but bombs. For some reason, bombs have a bit weird timing, and this is kinda difficult right after heart phase where 3 consecutive Titan moves are executed: twin egi summoned - overlapped bomb cross mode - 5 way landslides. Egi's not that hard to deal as long as lb executed immediately on them (caster LB are the best for these) and dodging landslide are not hard either. But doing those while predicting order of the bomb exploding are kind of difficult, since you might get hit by 1st cross bomb or 2nd one, or worst... both.

But overall, it wasn't impossible. Just harder. lol

whats killing you? if its weight of the land, you should be able to live through 1 weight. there is no need to stack with the rest of the group if you are having latency issues. line up a little bit behind them and try and dodge, if you dont you will still live. if its landslide, then you just need to be prepared for those.

I used my phone for internet, 500+ms . I'm from New Zealand (line gives me about 300ms)
for plumes you MUST memorise the pattern and move 1-3 seconds before they come up (but do so responsibly, don't run into a place that people use to dodge in case you moved too early and put a plume there).
for landslide, either do the same as above or play BLM and use Manawall.
for XX bombs, it is difficult to do it the "proper" way but not impossible. Consider eating a bomb by running onto the diagonal bomb and not moving.
for row bombs, go to the 3rd row and run sideways (instead of standing still) then up to the 1st row when landslide appears.

Assuming your ping is that bad (500+), because doing these might get you killed if your ping is good lol.

Well, while I don't live in South America, I too have yet to beat freaking Titan Ex. Even though I have been with groups that have even gotten him down to like 1-2%. My problem is not so much in ping, but finding 7 other capable players to kick his ass. Also, I blame my cruddy work schedule too, but yeah.. FU Titan.

I dream of one day getting the EX weapon I've been wanting since 2.1.

The only reason why player can die on Titan- is lag (lag spike). When plumes or landslide already appears, but you dont see it. Ping is NOT A REASON not to kill Titan- believe to my experience. My friend lives Russia, Sahalin island (north of Japan) and plays on Sargatanas, he has ping apr. 240-260. He killed Titan ex. without problems

oh wow! even my mobile averagely gave me 150 ms, which I do use pretty often. I usually save Titan for my ADSL line which gave me averagely 97 ms tho.

Back at Sargatanas, my mobile/line gave me 300/350 ms averagely. Makes me consider going back to my old server. lol

Move to the real 'Merica
