Titan EX Still ruining Lives somehow.... Silly rant

[Blitzace]

In someway it just shows how some people do not deserve the unsynced pony's. I get unsynced for progression for newer people. But pony's and stuff it feels kinda cheap since myself and alot of other people did it the hard way. But that happens with older content it gets easier i suppose
May i add, titan cost me over 100+ wins to finally get the pony. Ramuh on the otherhand i had it on the first drop(Long live the RNG)

But no. Same goes with moogle ex. Was doing a unsynced party for a friend, and people just couldn't get through their head they should not touch the whm/blm untill they cast to interrupt. Its just so annoying at times XD
All in all, i really love the titan fight! But for some people(They claim =P) latency is a big issue haha.

Anyways keep on rocking till titan stops knocking =P

In my experience pre-heavansward I could clear titan-ex in 4/5 PUG parties. However, after Heavansward the odds are more 1/5. I think its the influx of new players. When I check them they are usually wearing dungeon i90 gears. Idk why they just don't buy the 115 gears from MB at the very least...

...because folks are selling them for 100k+ lol... I seen some go for 300k.

Amazing how some people still don't know about NPC vendors.

That's for the HQ version. NQ is cheap at the vendors and even on MB.

Besides, not hard to make money. Here's just one quick way to do it:

Get your 2 free retainers at max level. Look at the market board and see what sells often and start sending them on hunts every hour you can. You'll easily make 100k a day.

This has been a problem in a lot of dungeons since 3.0 came out, actually.

When I first started heavensward, I didn't notice much of a difference in the new dungeons/raids/trials, but the moment I went back to run older content I was like, "What the hell happened??" Suddenly I had healers who couldn't keep me alive on basic pulls and Dps who were so slow it was taking near 30 minutes to run a dungeon that I used to speed pull with PUGs in 15. Then I realized... noobs.

The reason the HW content was going (semi) smoothly was because the people in HW were the same people who were running old content with me back before expansion, but all the old stuff is now populated with people who can't run HW yet because they haven't cleared the old stuff, and they suck. I wish there was a more graceful way of saying that, but it's true. They suck. Especially the ones who power leveled to 50 using FATES or some other method. They don't know their rotations or how to do their jobs, so when they have to run a dungeon that's not pure easy street things fall apart.

The first wave of these people have already hit HW, and when I saw them I was like, oh God... they're here...

I ran Titan ex the "right way" so many times before the new content but had no luck just the same. I don't have the exact numbers but I am sure it is in the same realm as yours. lol I don't know if this makes me deserving of a pony, or not, but the blood sweat and tears are real. XD

As far as moogle goes, I refuse to do that one unsynced unless I know my party very well. That fight is just too touchy for it. I have run into that very same issue with the BLM and WHM moogles though. XD It is so frustrating and similar to trying to communicate the wind and water debuffs on Bismark EX. lol

It's not lag. Weight of the Land is simply a fast cast. You need to start moving as soon as that bar shows up. Not a second after. But it's really no problem if you're late. As long as you're not late when 3+ of them are stacked.

If you're a ranged or a caster and you're having issues dodging Weights, you can position yourself about one Weight's length behind the rest of the group. You'll still be baiting Landslides in the right direction, but that way, if you don't get out of a Weight in time, you'll only get hit by one instead of the entire stack.
