Even after learning the fight and performing it flawlessly, there are still others who do not. Then there comes a point where I can no longer perform it perfectly because of fatigue, latency, or some other issue.

Beating these bosses doesn't feel like an accomplishment, it feels like winning the lottery - I lucked into the right combination of players on a given day.

So at the moment I have these options:

1. Continue to beat my head bloody on the wall that is Titan EX
2. Farm a gazillion Fates for this ridiculous quest line
3. Do dailies and log out

I've been doing #3 for a long time. This is the first time in 6 months of playing FFXIV that I've seriously considered just cancelling my sub.

This nonsense isn't fun anymore.
I'm in the exact same boat, and doing #3 just like you most nights.

A lot of my friends feel the same and several have already moved on to WildStar so maybe that's where I'll peek next.

The whole thing is so depressing when you consider how much better it could be with just some minor changes.
