    Titan was the first fight that really got me sitting up and paying attention to mechanics. While I agree that some of the 'hard' fights actually diminish after you acquire the knowledge about the mechanics (completely normal), most of what I've seen post-Titan has been a step above the easy-mode mechanics that you find in most MMOs over the last 5 or so years. I also love that the mechanics simply are what they are, and there is no "do watered down version -> normal version -> hard version" system, obtaining gear for the 'next level' at each step so it is easier to complete following.

    That said, I consider myself pretty cluey and catch onto mechanics pretty quickly, which I wish I could say the same for some players who fail 'simple/predictable' mechanics over and over; Had a group wipe on Tera 3 times because they didn't clear their doom, despite it giving you 12 whole seconds to run to the damn glowing square, and that the 2 prior times they'd died for the exact same reason...

    Edit: Oh, except The Praetorian and Carpus. The Ultima Weapon fight was cool, but overall I found them really straight forward. Maybe it was getting used to dodging stuff for 40+ levels, or maybe they toned it down because it was story content, I have no idea.

    You wanna talk hard? Aurum Vale, many attempts 0 success. I don't think It's possible to beat with duty finder groups.
    I just did earlier as a war tank, ran out of time once with a group, learned mechanics and tried again and spanked Miser's Mistress, its really got me amped up for the other dungeons.

    Darkhold is easy... All of the bosses are pretty much tank and spank with a couple of gimmicks.

    Have fun in Amdapor Keep! This dungeon is literally undoable if your healer has never done it. It can take a healer literally 8-10 wipes before the understand when to heal and when to not heal during Demon Wall. I personally love this dungeon, it really separates the good players form the bad ones.

    edit: Because I suck at english

    Darkhold was one of the easiest dungeons. :\
    Aurum Vale is a nightmare for a pet class, and Amdapor Keep is hell without a competent group. Qarn was the only low-level dungeon that seemed a bit difficult, but honestly, I only did it once.

    Fortunately, this game is quite fun even if I don't find it that challenging.

    I'll tell you what was challenging... Titan. I don't know if SE OP'd the AoE or if we just sucked (I'm pretty much always a DPS and I know I'm good at it, but this made me have doubts, lol) but we wiped about six times before we figured it out. Once you know what to do, it's a little rough, but much easier.

    You got through Garuda (Hard) on first try?

    Not the first version prior to the Praetorium and so forth... but the version after you complete the Main scenario quests?

    Seriously?

    Titan was kinda hard at first, and Bahamut's Coil is supposed to be even harder. I see a good future.
