Titan Extreme is NOT Fun

[Immut]

I find Titan to be a fun fight and many other fights in the game as well.

Sadly though for others it is nothing more than a demoralizing experience and difficult content leads to roadblocking progression for everyone else which kills fun in the process. Sad MMO life.

Titan is both fun and demoralizing. It's fun because it's a fun fight. It's demoralizing when you're stuck on it for 6 months because you can't get 7 other people together who can dodge and it's locking you out of every other extreme primal.

That was exactly my point.

I actually had a blast learning the fight and my role in it (tank).

I then spent 30-40 attempts in a row running my role to perfection and watching others in the party make stupid mistakes and cost our group the fight. Even had a few groups make it to super bombs and watched others in the group mess up.

I just gave up on it, I like to play games as a way to destress after work... not to become angry at others.

Yeah... this. I just noticed that several people have quoted you on this and I just had to join the tally.

I cannot express how much I actually hate this battle... it is utterly ridiculous and I hate what it does to the party dynamic. I've even seen highly skilled players fail this stupid crap several times and like I said before, its far gotten to a point where it needs to be an isolated solo trial. Your play, your skill, your lag, your trial... solo.

Either that or they need to have an extra 1 second delay placed on his abilities because those puddles are just full of it, lag or no lag... this has been argued several several several times before.

Simply applying the echo buff is not the only solution the Devs should be considering... and the more that newer players approach this stage of the game, the more there will be an ensuing bottleneck on it... and eventually it could make them seek another game.

This is my exact feeling. I absolutely love the fight itself; it's crazily intense.

It's also so intense that I can't get a group of players who can successfully clear it. And it's starting to drive me a little batty, because I really want to get onto Ifrit, Good King, Leviathan, and be ready to jump into Ramuh when 2.3 hits. At this point I'm at something like 15 hours of failed attempts, despite having made it through an entire cycle on post-Heart as both DPS and Healer at this point.

I love this fight, I'll come back to it regularly

but oh my god at the same time I just really want to be done.

This. So many bosses locked away because of this boss.

I agree with you completely.

To me... Titan was the best thin in the game thats happened to my pocket... I've made tons of gil off it.

I don't really think it should be made any easier or harder than what it is currently though, the fight is fine and while I do agree not everyone can find a pt of people as tenacious as I had on our first clear (we cleared it the day it launched) it is possible to learn the fight (from scratch mind you, we had no guides) with the same people over the course of a couple of hours, from there you have to fine-tune your own actions. As it stands I can currently get out of plumes with time to spare.

My advice is to find a group of friends and just tackle it, doesnt have to be 5 hours a day, it can be as little as one fight a day... you'll get it. Then just duty finder up when you have spare time. Nothing worth anything should come easy...

I finally beat him today, and I'm so happy to have been able to get past him. Been doing some Ifrit EX today, and I really like that fight. It's pretty fun.

The only problem I have is them triple/quintuple landslides. Sometimes I'm nowhere in them and just because a split end of my hair happens to be near the AOE, I get hit. Other times I barely make it out because it looks like I'm still in it when it goes off. The latency is killer. But I've been practicing and getting my timing/distancing a lot better. I was really down about it as this and T5 were really stonewalling me into quitting, but since I've found the resolve to keep at it I can honestly say this has to be the second most punishing fight for beginner raid level.

Why CT is even listed as a raid is beyond me. That place is such a joke. The only "difficulty" is playing with a bunch of tards who don't do their jobs properly or understand the mechanics. Even in my first time there, I was a tank, FC mate was the other tank. He explained to me what would happen and I only died once on the whole way (wasn't paying attention to Diras in Thanatos arena, got feared/nuked xD ).
