HM Titan Fight

[Serade]

Hard Mode Titan hard for PUG groups? Shocker.

Hiya,

Actually i LOVE TITAN fight, i do it lot of time when i'm not on raid / farming dungeon.
i have 4 relics (war / paladin / dragoon and scholar) working on 900 phylo to buy the final item.

I made it with my guild for my 2 tanks to help them, for my dragoon, it's a reroll so i did it with DF / random group from server, i beat titan with garuda weapon and full AK armor only, and for my scholar, same with 47 pink rings. This fight is just to know how run away from plumes, and hope the healer precast tumult AOE.

I have lot of success with my little macro to show the pattern, and got lot and lot invite to help.

If u are on moogle, just try to tell me for any help, always a pleasure for me to do it.

Marty McFly,

Enjoy !

I did it as WHM with a bad gear and a 1-1:50 second lag without dying.
You can do it.

If you don't memorize the rotation for Titan, you do not deserve to win.

Kinda makes the game boring when the same rotation happens over and over, would rather rotation be pure random . Then it would require more thinking rather than just knowing the exact rotation . Of course then it would be harder and people would QQ more

Someone is ALWAYS dead in Titan so often before heart phase.If the group past the Heart Phase everyone get excited & don't focus anymore.As a result -> WIPE
I speak from my own experience.Got Titan to 10% LP but at that time 3 DPS already down...
It's not that people are too dumb to dodge.One mistake & it costs your life.That's why Titan is merciless.

Maybe it's just me but, i find coil 1-4 to be WAY harder than titan.

Not sure how people can say otherwise. Maybe i'm doing it wrong?

Caduceus has less "dodge or you're dead" mechanics but he hits 3x harder than titan.
ADS throws 1 Wipe Mechain(Rot) that you have to DEAL with properly every 10 seconds + 4-5 other mechanics or Aoes YOU HAVE to avoid/do correctly or it's most likely a wipe.

Titan's little bomb and line/Plume patterns don't seem so bad to me.

I did titan first as a tank and spent 2 weeks watching my DPS blow up in front of me(during hearth or just after p5) while i was bored to death. Now i have a DPS class myself(mnk) and i absolutely LOVE titan and the way the fight goes.
Took me a whole 3 runs to figure out what to do as a DPS.

I seriously hope they won't change the fight.

All I'm hearing from some people is "I got mine, F you!". Titan absolutely has to be made more forgiving if anyone who hasn't bought the win or is lucky enough to be in an elite (not elitist, mind you) FC is to make any progress. Fights that are challenging is one thing, fights that are stressful is quite another. On top of that, dealing with impatient d-bags who bail after 1 or 2 tries makes the experience that much less comfortable.

But I guess none of that will get through the heads of people who think every game should be impossible to be a challenge.

They did say that as new content comes in, older content will be made easier so more people can experience it. Also, I'm not in a FC at all, working on my 6th Relic now. None of my wins were carries or bought either.

Is the fight easy? No, its not. No one walked into that fight knowing exactly what to do, and just dropped it. You have many mechanics to learn. The healers need to keep their heads up and not focus only on the health bars... or you loose. DPS needs to know what to hit, and when to save cd's, and when to stop engaging to save their lives... or you loose. Tanks need to learn how to time their cool downs, reposition, and hold threat off tons of healing.... or you loose. These are all skills you need in the coil. My free company, which is a turn 4 coil group, wiped on Titan allot. Hell, even relic'ed out we don't always 1 shot him when bringing new people. We did not get carried... we learned the skills needed and it prepared us for Coil. As stated by MANY people already... Titan is the door to the harder endgame content. If you cant beat him the way it currently is, its not gonna get any easier for you.
