While I didnt exactly get my first titan ex clear with df or pf, I started getting friend requests when I started joining PFs more often (been slamming my head at df just to get a glimpse of post heart super bombs so I can join pfs more confidently). When I get online, I'd get tells asking me if I wanted to try titan ex again. I started adding people too. Over a couple days, I had 4-5 people that I can trust to do well in titan ex. Had I kept at it, I would have built a small network of people to keep pushing titan ex with and gotten a win with them, but I got my win through an FC that I joined not long after. I dont think that would have taken too long, 1-2 weeks maybe? I'm sure lots more people have been at it for far longer. This was in the 1st month of 2.2 where the echo was 25% btw, I had latency issues that I couldn't manage until I got a new vpn post 2.2 so I didnt bother trying titan ex after the 1st week of 2.1. Went from random 280-380 to stable-ish 280.

On the other hand, I just finished a titan hm trial not 15 minutes ago. I accidentally joined in progress at 10% echo. We took it to 50%. Both healers were above i80 with relics. One is even near i100, I'd wager. They both simply couldnt live post heart. It was after 50% echo that the 1 overgeared healer was able to live through all the attacks because there arent enough people around (4-5 dead) to have that many wotls that now only deal like 1/3 max hp to the lowest hp player and he kept being targetted by gaols so he didnt have to dodge slides. It was hilarious and depressing at the same time.
