    Using DF for any fight is traininng grounds. How else can you learn the fight? Keep using DF for All fight in this game OP its allowed and its part of the system. Once you have a good understanding of the fight try a PF with the understanding that you're just looking for a clear on said fight. DF is for EVERYONE to use and enjoy.

    You can make a learning party in PF. I'm not saying someone has to, but that's another way you can learn the fight.

    More people should do this anyway, ensures same party goals versus DF. Plus you won't get many wipes until action is taken on EX primals.

    hey OP that guy won't be the last one to do that kind of crap. happened to most of us as we were working our way through content.

    however...

    you didn't mention in your post if you did or didn't read a guide/watch a video before going in.

    DF is a good place to practice fights and the playerbase now is experienced enough to be able to accommodate a few new players. however, if a player goes in 100% new without any information about the fight, it will be a much bigger time investment for the remaining 7 players. its situations like this that will make the bad apples really stick out.

    new+informed= a player that everyone wants to be with because of soldierybonus
    new+uninformed= might be better off leaving the duty and taking the 30min penalty to work on other things

    One time was in T9 vi DF........... Yes i thought I'd let that sink in and of course no one was expecting to clear really but after a few wipes and about 7 meteors the other tank decided he had enough and started the vote abandon. Well me the whm i came in with and every one else decided we wanted to keep going.

    SO he said vote kick me we wer like no you qued T9 in DF what you expect we wanted to keep trying so after next wipe and the next and the next...next........he kept trying to vote abandon but we still wanted to keep going so i pulled boss he kept trying to pull off me to wipe us i think he did this by the second next and kept getting us killed.

    All because he didn't want to take a 30 minute lock out penalty wasted our time and his cuz by the time i got so fed up with this guy over 30 minutes has gone by since his first vote abandon.

    long story short baby got his BA BA.

    Just vote kick and re-que if 7 other people wanted to stay in there.
    But I guess he shoulda just taken the penalty and withdraw by himself.

    This is great advice, dont be shy! put up that pf, say you want help learning the fight, and that there is a sol tome bonus because you have never won. Youd be surprised how quick you can get players. Even if you dont have luck every time you are at least trying and not being insulted in the df.

    Fun fact: In Japan, it's actually expected you know what you're getting into when you use the Duty Finder; and it's expected you use Party Finder to seek people out to teach and learn.

    Anyway, sorry about the harassment you experienced. Titan Extreme in Duty Finder though is never a good time. It's tricky to clear if a DPS goes out for most groups; it's near-impossible for random groups of players to clear it if a tank or healer goes. As a result, a lot of players have very little patience for the fight (especially having been stuck on it for months due to how punishing it can be).
