HM Titan Fight

[YanDere]

good for him / her then

cause i'm miles away from landslide, i get hit
I'm not near the plume after a pre move, i get hit
I moved away from the bombs half a screen away I get hit

lags kills me..not some rotation from memory

I know what you're talking about, i had the same problem (something like being repelled by Demon Wall 5 seconds after the others XD)
I managed to fix that by disconnecting everything but the PS3 (or PC if you are on PC) from the wireless modem and let the internet connection focus only on FFXIV.
Now I have 1/2, 1 second lag, and a relic

Indeed. Many people are quick to push the blame to SE, not possible to be on their end at all. Bunch of armchair net admins out there. One example. I've played on a 1.5Mb/s connection. If no one is using it, no issues at all. However, obviously, if someone downloads at the max it screws with me right? Well when I capped them at half the speed, it still screws with me when it starts, so if they're web surfing alot, the connection spikes up alot, messing with the latency for me. But if it's a static download using half, no issues once it sits there stable at half the connection, only when it starts. And there are many more things that could cause the issue as well, but people always dismiss and blame SE anyways.

If you don't memorize the rotation for Titan, you do not deserve to win.

Kinda makes the game boring when the same rotation happens over and over, would rather rotation be pure random . Then it would require more thinking rather than just knowing the exact rotation . Of course then it would be harder and people would QQ more

Maybe it's just me but, i find coil 1-4 to be WAY harder than titan.

Not sure how people can say otherwise. Maybe i'm doing it wrong?

Caduceus has less "dodge or you're dead" mechanics but he hits 3x harder than titan.
ADS throws 1 Wipe Mechain(Rot) that you have to DEAL with properly every 10 seconds + 4-5 other mechanics or Aoes YOU HAVE to avoid/do correctly or it's most likely a wipe.

Titan's little bomb and line/Plume patterns don't seem so bad to me.

I did titan first as a tank and spent 2 weeks watching my DPS blow up in front of me(during hearth or just after p5) while i was bored to death. Now i have a DPS class myself(mnk) and i absolutely LOVE titan and the way the fight goes.
Took me a whole 3 runs to figure out what to do as a DPS.

I seriously hope they won't change the fight.

Please tell me why I had no trouble avoiding in titan NM (out of it means i'm out of it), and after some time I am level 50 and I go try Titan HM and I get hit when i'm outside of his attacks area?

I didn't change any sht at all from I started playing to now.

PS: Now when I enter titan NM i get hit too even when i'm outside.

how is that not a sign of latency went up for no reason what so ever?

From no lag to having lag and SE has no fault? makes sooo much sense. NOT.

Then why isn't it happening to every single person in every group you experience that with? A majority of latency issues are outside of SE's hands. They can only control so much. I'm not necessarily saying it's you or your ISP that are having issues, but that still doesn't make it SE's fault. If you have factual evidence it's them, then how about you provide it?

I'm 0/43 in titan DF. No one wants a warrior in premade groups lol.

As a fellow warrior i feel ya man..Ironically i ahd a paladin jumping for joy when he saw me..The extra DPS LOL..Sadly we cold have done it buuut it was I who had to leave....Time cap crept up on me and an appointment i had...

But yeah i have what i need to do it i can even last a decent amount into P5(where we wiped) with minimal difficulty...But NOBODY want a WAR tank OR DPS....Especially DPS which right now is our best chance to down titan...

Still trying though LOL.

So you are saying that now that SE knows that there are issues due to certain factors. Because such factors are not caused by them, they should not and do not need to do anything? I think that is an extremely bad concept to follow, for multiple reason. A main one is because in the end, for whatever reason, if the issue becomes a major blockage. People will walk way, regardless of who is to blame.

Now that they know their fight has problems due to certain factors, the better response would be to work around such factors.

Let's see what SE does.

this run isn't hard unless you are a healer really, still wont be hard, just frustrating.

as dps/healer if you get hit by anything dodge-able then u fked up (i'm not knocking you for that, just think about it before u accuse other ppl), getting hit by those raises the chance of fail cause of the pressure u put on the healer especially if you are not full hp next to a stomp or a plume.

second point is: don't quote me on this percentage, but my guess that 70+% of the people got their relic+1s, put them in 3 random PUGs for 3 runs, and they will wipe at least once. "oh my gosh its so Eaaasy, i got my +1 cause im pro and u all are nubs" if you are a pro that doesn't mean u'll always win, cause some ppl shall fk up from time to time taking u down with them. if u do your job perfectly its awesome ty, but please considerate others too.

i dont want this run nerfed, but it would help if u make it 1 tank in DF and maybe throw in a gear check for item lvl, colors, stats, or potency.

No? I'm saying that many people get lag and DC issues, COMPLETELY outside of anything SE can even do anything about. But they will almost ALWAYS blame it on SE. For example, there were EU ISPs throttling people playing ARR because they thought it was P2P. There are people whose ISP drops the connection for a few seconds, disconnecting the player, but because the player sees 90000 as the error, they automatically say it's SE's fault. There are many more issues that SE has 0 control over. But people still blame them. Do they have issues they need to work on? Sure thing. Server delay is one of them. But they can't make everyone's connection work perfectly.

And if they do as you say, change the fight to compensate for people with those issues. You know what that does? It makes the fight EASY. Even just half a second change to compensate for poor connections makes the fight extremely easy.
