Titan Hard Mode Exploit?

[Ryuni]

I heard from a friend that you could sit on a rock as a healer and get aggro on Titan, then he won't be able to hit the healer and derp the whole fight. Everyone could just wail on him until he died. Took like 3 minutes to kill him.

And no, I did not use this exploit and pretend that a friend told me, I haven't even beaten HM Garuda yet.

Just to point out, when you dont have aggro, you will only get reduced to 1hp in the worse fall. But if you have hate (even if you're at full hp), you can die fro your fall

This happens when you are in FATEs too. I figured this out by having a very embarrassing death when a FATE spawned and I jumped off a tall building in town.

Ya, but u cant jump off untill the fight starts. and how can you steal aggro from all the way down there ???

There is a way to jump off, from what ive heard, there is a spot where you can glitch through the barrier if you jump at or run into it just right.

Regen. Each tick gives some hate to the healer.

If I am understanding what others have said correctly (I was not aware of this exploit until SE announced it), this is how it worked:

WHM casts regen on tank.
WHM jumps off the cliff while no one is in combat so that the WHM will still have 1 HP.
Tank runs in but does nothing else.
Titan runs for healer because regen is ticking on the tank. (If a tank is pulling mobs and not using abilities, the regen will be enough to aggro the healer -- you've probably seen it when tanks pull groups of mobs... some will go for the healer if the tank doesn't AoE fast enough.)
Titan can't hit the healer because the healer is out of range, but right now, the healer has hate.
Healer spams Medica II for hate.
DPS and tank make sure to not pull hate away from the healer (watching aggro meters) while DPSing him down.
Healer keeps spamming hate-generating abilities. (I'm not sure how the healer doesn't go OOM... unless the bard has manasong up.)
Titan's programming 'breaks' because he can't target his target. He stands there and looks silly while people kill him.

Exactly this.

When heart phase comes up, his script will break and he just stands there, no heart popping out.

The fix to this should be to have titan jump off the cliff and break the whm's skull while shouting FATALITY.

And seriously why do people have to cheat on this >.> bads.

Because people have a need to rush through content and not bother to gear up, learn the battle etc.

Easy fix to this would have been for Titan to pull back any unreachable target.
