Summoner Tanking Pet

[Aomine1992]

I never used Titan to tank lol but I'm sorry if some of you guys are upset about it.

If BLM is able to solo overworld mobs and solo quest, so is a SMN without a pet tank. If you're struggling without it you're doing something wrong. Titan never had a reliable enough enmity generation and damage mitigation to make it a viable option to replace a tank in any situation where it would matter aside from the very first dungeons if your tank d/ced or that one time on Ramuh where Titan was immune to the TB stacks and could tank the old man as long as people kept their enmity in check, but that was patched relatively quickly.

If you're on the overworld you can use your chocobo if you need a tank and solo instances can be cleared the same way any other dps class manage it without a pet tank. At least now there might be some times where you'll be able to use Titan in endgame to mitigate some boss ultimate moves in raid.

Even using both Diversion and Lucid, Titan was never able to hold hate even to the lowest level FATE mobs - the chocobo is a far more reliant tank than the nugget, so good riddance I say.

The carbuncle is a glamour but when I read the the new updates on SMN pets it looks like if I use the carbuncle glamour then my pet will do less damage. I guess I'll know when I play but I was just curious.

The carbuncles have stats and actions with lower potencies because of ACN. Egi-glamoured carbuncles aren’t carbuncles; they’re egis playing dress up.

And then Kirin is fought on lightsday and summons carbuncle which then does searing light and wipes your linkshell as vengeance for all the times people sent the lovable puffball to its doom...

That was one of the funniest things I'd seen in sky in ffxi :P
