    Titan (Hard Mode)

    The fight does not require two tanks, please replace the 2nd tank spot with another dps spot. It is already frustrating enough that the fight is ridiculously overtuned for PuG Duty Finder groups in comparison to Ifrit and Garuda. I have literally been stuck on this fight for 7 days now, and it is the only thing preventing me from completing my Relic weapon quest.

    I find the difference in difficulty ridiculous, and it is INFURIATING that my Relic is being held back because of the lack of gear requirement to queue for this fight, and lacking enough dps to actually even kill Titan's heart, without first building a full limit break at the start of the fight.

    Titan is fine. The difficulty is fine. Instead of joining pugs for 7 days you should have put together an 8 player group and practiced until you could kill it. Yoshida said that higher end dungeons shouldn't be done through DF (some, like coil can't be done through it). If you were to make your own group you could run 1 tank, 4 DPS and 3 healers or 1 tank, 5 dps and 2 healers.

    Don't ask for content to be made easier so you can get a relic weapon for a dungeon that you won't be able to do because you couldn't handle titan.

    He's saying that there needs to be a gear check requirement which is absolutely true. Trying to form a PUG by using /shout and having a gear check as a requirement to join gets you called an elitist scumbag by people in AF/White gear. Titan HM can be done through the DF if you get geared, knowledgeable players. One of the tanks being a WAR would help for DPS.

    Dual PLD puts out pretty much the same DPS as WAR + PLD. The off tank PLD just has to swap to Sword Oath.

    I'd just prefer the 2nd tank slot for a 3rd healer ;_;

    I mean sure I could try and shout on my server but thats no more effective than using the dungeon finder most of the time. If they were in my fc and I could talk things through, make sure their gear is up to scratch ahead of time etc, itd be fine. But being only 3 weeks in, finding that many geared 50's that pay attention is kinda hard.

    have your WAR become MAR so he can take extra DPS skills, they are actually fine on dps that way, just dont have much burst

    At what point did he ask the fight to be easier? Work on your reading comprehension. He said the Duty Finder shouldn't be pulling in two tanks, as that completely wastes a spot.

    Luckily they're also putting in a minimum ilvl check in 2.1 so that people who don't know any better can't queue and ruin a run by being severely undergeared.

    Further, don't tell people to not use the Duty Finder. If they don't want the Duty Finder to be used, then it shouldn't be available for this content. Getting a group together of people who aren't braindead and are actually geared enough for this fight is a practice in monotony. Simply not having a second tank and having a minimum ilvl check would fix it. The fight itself is perfectly fine.

    Going to be a long time until I beat this thing. Its usually a back line that can't avoid everything or some hick-up in the DPS.

    I don't understand that whole stuff around AF gear, sure DL main pieces give more of your main stats but it won't make "the" difference if you don't get what's necessary. You mainly need chest legs and weapon to have a noticable increase in dps.

    For instance I cleared AK with a guy in full AF and maximum lvl 40 jewelery, it was just fine. Not super ultra fast, simply slow & steady. If you know how to play your class you won't have a real problem with the gear part, this shitty excuse need to stop. Just came from TSW where people were usin the same argument and I could outdps pretty much everyone in 70% of the groups I went in without even havin purple gear ...
