    While I know you are joking. Keep in mind not everyone on a legacy server is capped jobs and gear. Hell, based on what I've seen in DF groups I'd say we have quite few people that are new account holders. We have just as many problems as other servers where you see people totally under geared for certain content.

    I can't believe I'm actually saying this, but I'm actually looking forward to a gear score system that SE has hinted at implemented as a stop gate preventing people well under prepared (gear wise) from being carried through fights. Sometimes you need everyone on their A-game bringing their A-game gear. I've come across way too many groups where people are wearing gear 20+ levels below the content they are running.

    I know it's a bit much to ask for, I put in a lot of effort to try to be ready for certain content to expect the same from others I am suppose to consider my comrades in battle.

    Agreed I cant wait for GS either. Gear can't help some people though and the lack of skill is a problem I am seeing far to often. I am obviously joking about JP servers and Legacy servers. The only difference is there is probably a higher proportion of geared players to non geared players on legacy servers. It is also a little easier for new players on the legacy players to gear up as well. So you proabably have a litrtle better chance of getting a DF group that can complete Titan.

    Is there anyone that is not on a legacy or JP server that has done this? Everyone so far is.

    Thank you for saying the words *pick up group* in your message, i've been wondering for days reading the forums when people say PUG wtf they mean (at first i thought they meant pugilist), reading it and using context analysis i knew it had something to do with grouping but i just did not know what the acronym meant and didn't want to ask because so many people were using it in sentences i felt i'd be noobish to ask.

    Well, I got Titan down. I managed find a pre-made group in need of a tank. I still don't think the DF is a good way to get Titan down.

    There are many strategies that work on HM Titan. I have participated in parties that have beaten him with 2 Tanks/4 DPS as well as 1 Tank and 5 DPS. People are also fond of the 3x Healers 1x Tank, 4xDPS setup as well.

    Good luck to you.

    For the record, even Legacy servers are put into the DF pool with Non-Legacy servers. I have come across multiple characters that have level 50 in every class (including DoL/H) for the last week or two, which no matter how hardcore you are, isn't possible on a Non-Legacy server. Again though, the split may be different in the JP pool, but I don't think they'd have singled out Legacy and Non-Legacy servers on the NA/EU side of things.

    As I mentioned in my original post, I think it might be an attitude towards the content. I've seen way too many posts on here complaining about people not taking them because they aren't even in 50% Darklight gear, and then 99% of the players I've seen in my DF HM Titan groups have either had full Darklight gear, or short 1 or 2 pieces.

    If my posts seem short or incoherent, I am probably editing the rest in.

    I forgot legacy servers are pooled in with non legacy in the DF. That makes my point on Legacy moot. Never mind.
