Reason why DF people fail Titan

[Grailer]

Firstly there is absolutely nothing wrong with titan fight except maybe the plumes diameter could be slightly smaller or increase the time they go off to give lagged players more time.


The REASON people fail at Titan is because they got carried through the other fights before Titan . For example I just did Chimera on my healer and had to rez the same DPS 3x in a row and had to heal him EVERYTIME aoe appeared .

We killed Chimera and he got the kill .. on to next primal for him to be carried again until he gets to Titan and uh oh no more carry anymore he actually needs to survive to kill heart .

So yeah that is the real reason DF groups fail at Titan .

Game requires no thoughts or skills up until the Titan Fight, Titan is a Newb and a Connection check.

1) Under geared themselves or their party members

2) Weak link - have one weak player that can't stay alive, won't burn heart

3) Someone can't dodge, can't burn heart.

Yeah but they think they can be carried through titan because ifrit and garuda were easy to carry.

It's definitely not a connection check. It's a server side massive lag problem. Square really needs to work on their instance servers.

It's a noob and mechanic check. It's also something that needs to stay.

Meh... Debatable... If you are thinking about it as a noob filter then you're wrong, because they still get carried, only problem is that some idiots benefit from it by charging to carry them lol (or they just need to get their friends to do it). Soooo... Not really working as that neither. Just find your group of "l33t" friends and hang around them exclusively =O

It's economics and the transfer of wealth.

Good players getting richer and bad players remain bad from all the titan taxes.

It's no longer a noob check anymore.

Except it isn't truly because I've seen plenty of people get carried through Titan. And that's not even counting paid for runs. Heck I think I'm starting to see people being carried through Coil now too. Just saw a tank loaded with darksteel armor and ZERO materia on it or accessories and no food in coil turn 2, all the while eating dodge-able aoe's repeatedly.

I'm genuinely impressed to see how far people can get in this game without true skill or knowledge on how to play.

Yes because I was talking about carries.

honestly, I don't even consider titan hard mechanic-wise, but the difficulties a lot of people have with connection make the fight a lot worse. it's almost like SE did it on purpose to make it harder and put in a 'progression barrier' like that
