Titan EX Rotation?

[Lyrinn]

Anyone know of an accurate/reliable guide/chart? Google search gives me like 10 different versions.

Also want some advice for double Weights. I play on a toaster (average 15 FPS) and stacked plumes drop my FPS to 10 (at which point I move really slow), so I usually stay in the back and start moving about half a second before WotL starts channeling. It works in HM but it seems to be a bad idea in EX. Is there anything else I can do without destroying the arena for everyone else?

Pop Sprint before Plumes and run like you've never ran before, keep running even if your screen shows you out of animations.

Buy a better PC and don't be a pain in the ass for the rest of your group. 10-15 FPS? Almost unplayable in Titan.

Keep in mind that if you survive 2 super bombs... the next move after Geocrush is his enrage mode: upheaval.

Guaranteed wipe, as he performs it dead center of the arena.


Funny as hell, the first time I saw it.

Titan (extreme) can enrage...? :O

Anyway, that first chart that was posted is pretty accurate, with the only exception being phase one. The four moves that rotate change slightly, as described by Fallen Wings. Phase two starts over with the gaol going into its normal rotation (the chart also slightly messes that up).

If your FPS is dropping to 10-15 in Titan and you can't turn your settings down any more, I think it's time to buy a new computer or consider playing on PS3/PS4. Simply memorizing moves and running ahead of time is going to give you issues in the later phases, especially during the beginning of the last phase when you need to stack and move for bombs while at the same time killing adds. It's pretty hectic at that point, with a lot happening on your screen. I wouldn't at all be surprised if you end up eating a bomb during that phase, or accidentally dying to plumes simply because things aren't loading fast enough for you. It's really important that you don't move ahead of time in Titan extreme (unlike hard) because the arena is simply too small to accommodate that. Also, you may mpk your party if you run too soon for double plumes.

Yes Titan (and Ifrit) enrage. Titan enrages after two complete last phase rotations, dunno whether Garuda also enrages after some number of rotations.

Yet I have no problems dodging everything (so what does that say about everyone else who can't dodge?) or keeping up with heals. Stacked Weights is the only thing that drops me down to 10 but staying in the back and/or Sprint helps.

In any case, I appreciate the help, FallenWings. Found a practice group to run it with and we were able to consistently make it through heart phase, though half of us kept forgetting about the last set of Weights so we never got far in phase 4. Fortunately, there's enough space in the back for me to draw my own Weight as long as everyone else who's stacking dodges to the side instead of back. I'll see about super bombs when I get to it.

Yeah, I've never seen Garuda enrage either. However, I have seen her use additional air barrages (or whatever they are called) from other cardinal directions besides the north in phase 1 when dps was fairly low, which generally causes a wipe because people don't expect it to happen :P

no, 2nd superbombs > 3rd egis > non stop upheavals
