Just a note OP... you're not supposed to be relying only on heals with a CD pop for Mountain Buster. You're supposed to Flash Titan just before he uses it. When he's blind, he misses you 90% of the time.

I do this, and I'd say it works about half of the time. But if you have a summoner or two spamming ruin2 between their DoTs, this can kinda ruin your morning. :P
Table flip shouldn't even be an issue if people know the rotation before hand. Virus/RoD, pre-cast adloquium from scholar, pop a cd if paladin...

So I'm in the Titan fight with my FC, and everything is going perfectly. I know his rotation like the back of my hand and I'm beasting it on the heals, esuna, stoneskin, tumults and everything else and feeling really damn good about it. I know plumes are coming so I casually start running in preparation to get out of the way when I suddenly hit auto-run....straight off the edge. Sad Face Clown
I got one Guy who was AFK Smoking, unfortunately I didnt read that and just pulled. The sad thing, he dodged better when he was afk as when he got back an actually "tried" to dodge things.
You guys are scaring me. I've yet to reach him on HM.
I pop flash on about all mountain busters, including the first. So i am well placed to tell you from first hand experience than flash is 90% chance to avoid stuff only in your dream. Hell, if that were true, it would be the main point warriors are bitching about,cause 90% avoid chance 21 sec (12 + 6 + 3) per minute would be OP as fuck.
It is closer to 20%, maybe 10%. Not even close to 40 to 60% as a couple of others have said. No reason not to pop it, but those of you acting like it's some sort of magic solution don't know what you are talking about. The feeling when you avoid mountain buster is great, but you just can't rely on it.
Aside from that, it's nice to hear i am not alone struggling with this fightDamn it can get so frustrating at times. Worst is, i get to phase 5 in about 75% of my groups (all are made by shouts, with gear check, asking for some experience -- if you have none you should use the duty finder the first couple of time anyway). 90% of the time, someone is dead within the first minute of P5, even when everything was running super smoothly until then.
I just threw out "like half of the time", but it definitely seems to miss more than 10% of the time when he's blinded. That's just from my experience. It's definitely not 90% of the time either.
And yeah, no one was saying, "Oh just pop flash and you're fine!" It's just something to help make things a little easier on the healers if he does, in fact, miss you with table flip. Healers should be keeping you topped off, cast adloquium right before MB hits, healer or mage can virus, bards can Rain of Death... Just don't know how MB is the big obstacle for any group on that fight unless people know absolutely nothing about the rotation.
What's funny about asking for a previous kill is that the fight is very different from different perspectives: What if I killed titan as a Close range DPS and now seek the kill as a healer, and it is my first time with this role in the fight? Am I gonna be more experienced than an healer on his 30th try with no previous kill?
As a DPS, in expample, Tumults are relaxing times, cause nothing you can/must do; on the other hand as a healer I am sure they are oh shit times.
really stupid attitude.
