HM Titan Fight

[CalvatE]

but people know dodging is far above dps in terms of importance right?

Some people honestly don't think of it, or at least until you mention it. As a healer I used to stand in it because, "I just need to get this cast off first or the Tank could die" - It kind of seems like an acquired skill if anything. Just bring it to people's attentions and then people just start learning. You'd think it's common sense but I guess we all had to touch the hot stove before we learnt it was hot.

Although of course no Melee or Bard has an excuse! Unless you're locked into place like with Jump.

As a healer I ALWAYS put life before heals, and if the tank is dying and the other healer sleeping then I use Swiftcast or Benediction in the worst case.
If people avoided aoes always nobody would lose to Titan.
And please, tell me your DF secret to get good people, everytime I queue on DF I get people full lv50-45 or full DL that don't know how to dps/keep aggro/heal.
But for now I'm in the Coil as WHM with my relic, so this is not gonna be a problem at the moment.

His DF Secret? CalvatE is on Tonberry, a Server in the JP datacenter. I've seen people on the JP servers get all 9 Relics via DF, even Titan. Here it's rare to get a win, much less 9.

I finally beat Titan yesterday after spamming DF for a few days. This fight would be so much easier if everyone simply memorized the patterns. It sure as hell does not need a nerf. Isn't this game easy enough already?

Isn't duty finder world wide? I always queue for every language, and I have done it with English people.

Although weird since I've selected only German once and never seen one before.

If I'm remembering it correctly, they changed it so that servers were grouped together for the DF, its not world wide.

It never was World Wide. At first it was split based on Datacenter. So All JP servers were in DF together and all NA/EU servers in another DF together. This was causing issues so now there's even smaller groups. When you DF, you only get a small handful of Servers picked from. For example, Excalibur gets people from Shiva and a few others. But only those, no others.

But no, JP servers never DF'd with NA/EU servers.

the problem is not the healer, the problem is the group as a whole. She's never going to make it through the fight unless the entire group is competent and right now the DF groups are not it. Like I said, there's certain factors that make this worse than it actually is and those problems show up more on the DF than anywhere else.

At this point I would just recommend buying the run. It's not her that's the problem it's other people.

Which is why I strongly recommend an FC/LS. I've already wasted hours among hours on DF, just hoping to get one titan run done. I wind up with nearly every single attempt failing at the heart, and several more people on Rev's Shout, blaming my gear and inability (which I knew fully well that isn't the case), so they were out of question to request help from as well. Moment I ran with my FC though, it was very easy to do, and we were able to complete it a few times in a row without any failed attempts.
