    Rant. I can't believe I cannot beat Titan EX. So upset. 0/90 and counting.

    Been doing this fight for the past week and already up to 90 attempts with 0 improvement. Keep losing to lag or just someone makes one mistake and costs entire run. I don't know how majority of people beat this stupid fight but this is by far the most annoying thing in the game. Coil in my opinion is easier overall that this. My dodge rate is around 95% and I have the fight near memorized but it seems to make 0 difference as again this fight requires perfection which is something I cannot achieve. I really don't know what else to do. Done all my homework, watched videos, got tons of practice in and the same result each time. Am I the only one that is experiencing this headache?

    dont give up. I remember i was stuck on hm titan for 3-4 weeks, of playing titan the whole day, and now do every fight with ease. Just takes a good group, if you were on my sever i could help out. If you lag i would move before hand, or just when it would appear. And not llike titan hm, everyone has to pull their weight. for ex have to remember things like:

    - bombs (after heart) either move to the centre and wait till the back odds/evens blowup and run there, if you lag mentally count 1.. 2.. and move. OR bait it and move left/right and back.

    - remember gaols to stick under titans feet, where the target circle is.

    - remember to first stack on one bomb during superbombs and after stomps move for plumes. Then move all teh way to the edge. > 5 landslides inc after that so be careful.

    best to run with a static not pugs until you guys clear it.

    The phase just repeats

    -lb on adds also nice, another should build for second rotation.

    I have the same issue finding only pts where 1-2 keep dying a lot and its an endless chain of replacing with more bad players. I got a few wins but farming the earrings seems like its not going to happen anytime soon.

    Everytime you meed someone else who can dodge and doesn't get "lag" add them to friends or make a LS for killing primals after a while you'll have a lot of good people ready to go

    90 tries? And all that practice is wasted because you'll get new clueless people in every try.

    I'd try to start a party finder for him and befriend as many good players from your realm as you can. Or make an 'Extreme Linkshell' and give inviting priviliges to anyone you can trust to have good judgement. It's a little work but so is doing 90 tries.

    Ofcourse dont do this when you feel you cant dodge enough yet. You need to worry less about your damage and less about dying first, practice enough until you can do the whole fight calmly. Thats the problem with Titan, theres not much else to say than 'dodge better'.

    > My dodge rate is around 95%

    Getting hit once every 20 mechanics means you're dying every attempt. Maybe this is why you can't beat Titan EX.

    (j/k I knew what you meant)

    Wiped for two hours with an FC group last night. Beat it in three times with a partial separate FC group other times. It really just depends on who you group with, how well they understand the fight, whether or not they have latency issues, and a dash of luck in some cases.

    I'm having this same problem with Garuda Ex. I just can't find a group. My own PF groups invariably get 2 or 3 new players, despite marking it as a farming group. Parties I join just can't seem to get it together, and the worst thing, I got in a DF group that was clearly going to kill her. No problems whatsoever all the way up to the tornadoes, and my computer crashed. By the time I got back up, they'd kicked me.
