One thing regarding SMN's egi in shadowbringers

[XenabelleS]

Titan-egi went officially extinct the minute we were able to summon Demi-Bahamut. Titan was just slightly useless before that, but that was the final nail in the coffin and he won't be missed.

With the loss of Titan as a tank-type egi, it looks like Summoners may be getting a defensive CD in "Earthen Armor."

Speak for yourself?

I still use Titan by default and could not have got through the solo instances at the end of Stormblood without it.

20% bubble is not the same thing as not getting hit at all and using sustain liberally.

Was your IL meeting the standards the game was presenting then? Like having a well rounded set and not bizarre lower il pieces (like especially for a weapon) Were you avoiding aoes proper and maximizing on dps?

Because I cleared the final instance of Stormblood using a SAM (I believe was at rounded at 381 IL at the time) and had zero issues. When that final instance was out I saw reddit posts declaring how hard it was, which in turn it was mainly an echo chamber of people not being able to cheese it like other instances.
