Why do I see summoners using Titan egi in frontlines?

If we are talking about solo playing or something like that, i use it to tank the mobs. Any Smn can heal him very easily without a problem.

They're talking about PvP.

But even in PvE Titan is useless for standard solo play since every solo-friendly mob or mob grouping at or below character level can be killed before it becomes a danger. The situations where you would actually appreciate Titan tanking and don't have a player tank with you are sadly rare (sure, you can have Titan tank a boss FATE like Gorgimera for you, but why would you want to?).
