I think you're missing the point; he had trouble finding PUGs to accept him. And even if they did, how probable is it that you will kill Titan with a PUG? The chances are slim: DF pugs are very unlikely to kill titan. Mhor Dona PUGs take only 1 tank for every 2 tanks out there who need the fight. And if you're making a party, and need to choose a tank, and there's a surplus of them begging to go, and PLDs outnumber WARs 2 to 1 on all servers so there will probably be a PLD available if there is a WAR available, which will you choose? The WAR or the PLD? Unless you know the guy, or the WAR is way overgeared compared to the PLD, you'll take the PLD. That WAR will have to rely on friends/FC to take him, buy his way out, or bash his head against the wall 1000000 times hoping one of them will miraculously net him a kill.

This week I went to BC 3 nights, each time with a different group. 2 of those I got in because I created the PUGs, and one of them was with my FC and I practically had to beg them to take me. We got to Caduceus, got close to killing him, but didn't. The common thread in all 3 nights of raiding: "omg WARs are squishy tanks and mana sponges, if we had had a pally we would've won". I heard it from healers and from DPS, and even from a fellow warrior (we were both in full dl + some myth + relic in that run). And indeed, we often wiped not because of a fuck up (there were many of those, to be sure), but because healers just couldn't keep the WAR alive. We always got to the point where we had nailed the procedure, but bad RNG pwned us every time. So, moral of the story: my pld is lvl 47 and the nightmare is nearly over.
