    It's not just group content. Titan's enmity doesn't scale at all, so by the time you reach the mid-50s at the latest, he can't hold mobs off of you. It only gets worse as you level further, get more burst damage, and then summoning Demi-Bahamut causes his aggro to reset completely.

    Your points are valid, but the fact remains, at low levels, Titan did serve as a passable tank keeping the player safe from harm.

    I'm optimistic that the barrier functionality may serve well enough as a replacement, tho.
