you had bad party members. find some good ones.
tanking story mode Titan is very easy. if you didn't get landslide and fall off cliff then it's the healer's fault or someone else's fault.
I would just shout in one of the cities for help. Most people don't mind helping. Just get the highest vit items you can first. Hold hate and you dont have to dodge 3/4s of titans stuff unless dps are bad. Since he doesn't target the player with the most hate with landslide or goal.
How to tank titan:
Step 1: Stand still
Step 2: Collect loot


This one time at Titan HM. The other tank says to me "hey you want to MT?" "No not really" I reply. They say "Its really easy to MT", "I know not my first rodeo, too boring MT on Titan" No reply and the fight went on.
Though I have seen many times people running around to where the MT is, drawing landslide to them and its happened to me so you actually have to move a little. One guy I guess wasn't expecting it, maybe got a drink of water and got knocked off, man was he all kinds of upset.





Hah. My friends routinely say they've got a present for me and drop a WotL on me when I'm MT. I may or may not move, depending on how much hp I have at the time. It's even funnier when they catch a MB to the face and die. Then I get to jump up and down on their corpse while I laugh at them. xDThis one time at Titan HM.

Never pull with Provoke. All provoke does is put you at the top of all current aggro pools by 1 point. If you pull with Provoke, that sets your current aggro at all of 1. On the other hand, pulling with Tomahawk or Overpower places you significantly higher.
Not much to add other than what's already been said. Face titan away from the party and trust in your DPS and healers. As a tank, your job is simply to stand there and get hit while the DPS's burn him down.
EDIT: I'm curious if you're just listing the skills you used or is that your rotation? If it's your rotation, you're missing out on lots here. Skull sunder and Butcher's Block chain together with Heavy Swing to grant bonuses. I assume you know this or you couldn't build Wrath.

One thing to keep in mind though is provoke has a significantly further range than Shield Lob and Tomahawk, so it can be useful in pulling occasionally, or even tank swaps (Tonberries in WP,Chirada in Garuda Ex)Never pull with Provoke.

parry is icky
and so is 2 slot tank armor (as in chest peices that wont let you wear a hat and leg peices that wont let you wear shoes)
avoid them both
2 slot tank armor is always inferior to same level, same quality single slot peices
parry is the least useful stat for tank (among all of the stats that have any relevance at all for tanks: str, vit, det, crit, acc, skill speed and parry)
go with gear wearable by gla mrd pld war
go with accessories stated with str and/or vit
the more current your armor is, the more str accessories you should use
