My feelings about Titan Ex!

[NoRyoKu]

4-5 attempts a week isn't much...

As I said, I have around 15h/week and I want to do book grind, roulette, help FC etc... so this is the time I have

I can clearly see one big issue here. You are not putting any effort what so ever to find more like minded people, spend hours if you all need to to tackle the same goal. If you constantly have to leave groups because of 1 or 2 bad apples and just start from scratch you are potentially killing any progress you could have had.
The new turns require alot of coordination in between the raid group. getting new people all the time reduces the success rate of even beating them. If you are having this huge of an issue do a few smart things,
1: go to your servers forums and announce what you are looking for, seek out even people who are willing to learn the fight and spend an hour or 2 each day attempting.
2: create a party finder group and seek out people who really need to down titan ex, if you end up with a bad apple, talk with the rest on staying and insist to find other players who can help create a good team that can eventually down titan ex. Avoid groups that are willing to leave due to a wipe or 2. some people need to warm up while others are learning the more you stick together with the same people the better your chances of winning.

Titan EX is evil to those who have high latency (Like me) and FPS problem

Even if I put "iLvl 90, Know fight, Bring you A-game" in PF, i'm still always getting someone who is the "weakest link" and waste the run for everybody.

Don't put iLv90 Requirement to the Fight, if you expect a win.

This only says people have the gear. Set the iLevel lower, but watch your group, detect the person who keeps 'messing up' and tell him to try another time.
(Dont tell them in a rude way, but if you are building a clear group, tell them you expect the knowledge of the fight).

After my first clear as mnk I startet doing Titan Extreme with my sch but far less iLv and since then i always got my weekly clear as sch (First clear als scholar was with iLv72, i also helped out but i refuse if people set insane iLv requirements).

Hi. I'm a noob, and similar to you. I have the same problem...

Only that... In my case I just decided to not get annoyed and ignore Titan EX for now, coward option. In my server everyone is super new so not many people organizing party finders for it... IT... HAS... TO... Be in DF...

So far even took me one night and the next day for Garuda EX...

Right now I'm rather leveling up any other classes and gearing them all, it's like a funny hobby... =3

Maybe someday... I'll do it this way. "Okay, now a run try with the WAR... Failed... Next one with the DRG... Failed... Next one with the MNK... Okay, Next one with the WHM..." and so on.

People are still doing EX primals? Why?

People are still doing EX primals? Why?

Snobbish question. Some do them for the chance at the various mounts. Some want to get through Garuda, Titan, and Ifrit to farm Leviathan for his weapon as not everyone is capable of clearing the second Coil or feel like grinding out animus weapons. Others simply haven't made it to the primal battles.

Not everyone has done them yet?

People are still doing EX primals? Why?

Because some haven't beaten them yet?

I gave up, I can run to the other side of the arena and WoTL still hits me. I'll just wait for a nerf, or to the point my iLvl is so high it won't be a problem anymore.

Huh interesting reality check. I didn't realize people weren't done with that content yet. Even with the echo buff people are still having problems? Do you guys have free companies? I don't PF/DF anything, we just pick a night and our FC runs whatever is needed.
