    Hmmm i dont remember saying tanking Titan was difficult...
    Luckily the OP understood what i meant.
    And i suggest him to use a PLD/PLD setup for the first coil runs, and switch to PLD/WAR when they are more experienced and geared (no need to wait 2.1).
    It takes some runs, some gear and experience (for all the party) but at some point the war will turn from a burden to a resource.

    edit: i forgot to say... put your SCH on the WAR, especially while tanking Caduceus.

    I do agree with this, for sure. Its also a good reason to start out with x2 BRDs till you get rotations down. It really just makes life easier, even if they aren't necessary. Since you are stretching for one BRD OP, just go with that expecting some extra work on your part for silence. Again it all comes down to practice and patience, I'm confident your group can get it if you sit and grind out some practice.
