Request to Dev's. Tune Titan HM.

[Mattlex]

I hate to say it because it shouldn't need it, but using a VPN service will sort your problems out, the issue isn't in the mechanics of the battle mainly the lag that kills people. (Of course there are some people that are just bad regardless)

I hated Titan HM because on my screen I was clearly out of his plumes, landslide etc but always got hit! After countless threads and posts of people reporting herrendous lag in general there is still no response aknowledging this.

I have seen posts where the Devs confirm VPN service isn't against the ToS because it doesn't directly control the game client so try a free trial and see the difference.

I now love doing Titan HM because I can dodge almost everything without any lag problems.

I don't know if this works with PS3 users, I never use the PS3 because of how aweful it is in comparison! Bring on PS4! The other thing you could try (it may help) is use a ethernet cable to the PS3 as the wifi adapter on the PS3 is pretty shoddy.

While i do get some lag i am hard wired in. Never ever should anyone go wireless.
As for reaction time i always thought it was me and some said on occasions i should learn how to dodge.
However having died one time after heart phase i would observe players movement for weight of land, and on my screen it clearly looked like the player was in while it went off and yet received zero damage when they moved out
so perhaps it is indeed server or PS3, who knows.

I just want to chime in that lag is indeed a problem with this fight.
I was on a Japanese server with 3 sec lag -> this made it actually impossible to dodge weight of land.
I would get killed EVERY time.

Once I switched to NA server, with only 30ms ping, bam I can dodge every weight.

Not everyone has the luxury to make their ping time go from 185ms to 30ms and it literally becomes a battle of the lagged. If there's nothing to be done about lag or more server locations than I would say that this fight needs to be adjusted down the road for the poor people who are basically forced to "predict" where and when attacks will be,.

If you guys have trouble with people getting hit by WotL and they're not getting one shot, but just being a burden to heal try this set up:

1 Tank
2 Scholars
1 Whm
4 DPS

Eos and the WHM can heal just fine during the heart phase and the scholars can swap to Cleric stance to DPS the heart and you should have enough damage (with LB if necessary) to down the heart while the fairies, and whm can keep everyone up with AoE heals, AoE regen (Whispering Dawn / Medica II). It will also make it substantially easier to keep the tank up for Mountain buster and to get in a quick raise if someone dies. (Just wait for the right time to click the button to get up-- not before a tumult or plumes., but raising during plumes can be all right.)

Once you get the heart down it's more or less a war of attrition anyway. Keep LB3 for a healer/bard LB if things get out of hand, and if you don't need it have the dps use it to kill titan faster.

Awesome advise ^
If i ever find wanting to go back to Titan i may try that

I already have 2 Relics and am going for my 3rd with White Mage currently. Still have been stuck for a couple of weeks now because finding enough people who can dodge is always a chore. My FC is getting really close now to having a "core" group that can take him down consistently but not quite there yet. I wish I had enough money to buy a win at this point. (I have been the strongest voice against buying runs but this is just getting rediculous) I wish I had the 1k to buy the run off someone I found...guess I will start saving up...LOL Just joking...I have made a promise to myself I would never do this but I am just so frustrated at this point.

I do not have an issue with the fight, I'm a tank, I haven't died to landslide more than a couple of times (over 60 + attempts).

First time seeing this thread and i found this one line kind of funny. He never aims Landslide at the person with most hate. So as tank the only time he will aim it at you is if everyone else is dead or you lose hate. So i hope you never die to landslide as tank. This fight is really easy especially since the latency issues was adjusted. Even before 2.1 as long as people were willing to actually learn the fight and learning the rotation definitely helps. I personally believe for a so called relic weapon the fight was way too easy. Glad they brought out the extremes. Anyone still having trouble with this fight i would advise finding people you can rely on to learn the fight. Learn the rotation and to just keep at it. You will soon learn it and it will be a walk in the park. Practice makes perfect.

it clearly looked like the player was in while it went off and yet received zero damage when they moved out.

I'm not an expert in this but i believe this is due to the connection to clients and server.

(see enemy move)
Server => Your client

(See other chars move)
their client => Server => your client

so there is all ways going to be a slight delay when it comes to watching other people nothing wrong with connections just the way internet works, which is why it is never a good idea to wait for people to move before you do.
