The party wipes again fa la la la...
"COME AND PLAY! For the night is bright, *and you can sleep when you're DEAD* " ... Man, Titania is such a HARDCORE party animal.
A few notes from running pug groups. A. melee with movement options IE: SAM can gap close to Titania to maintain up time and make it a little easier to pass the overall DPS test. B. You can stack in center and just absorb one frost rune both times to maintain up time as much as possible. A minor note, if you're using melee LB, you can get an lb 3 and 2 if you hit the moment she comes back from her add phase. Play it safe and waiting till during mist rune resolve you only get an lb 3 and 1. A few things to note for groups who might be struggling to pass the DPS checks.
Great advice on the LB, I've been pugging this with my friend who plays dragoon so I'll pass that one on to him.
I like when these end with wiping to the enrage
Finally doing Ex trials. Wish me luck.
How did it go?
@@ew275x I got my mecha dragon last week. Since then I've also started running savage raids as well.
That knockback mechanic is a party disbander lol!
It's Sephirot EX all over again.
@Tim Krimpson It's simple but difficult and punishing.
@Tim Krimpson It is and people suck at it still.
@@NileSings Nothing difficult about it.. It's stupid easy, compared to Sephiroth where you need to bait out another attack.
I love how all these people commenting act like they got it the 1st or 2nd time trying it xD
For me... the easiest way to tell Phantom Rune... What color does the Arena flash. Purple is get out, Gold is get in. Plus as a secondary, if the staff is swirling about, get in, if not, get out. The wings can be harder to notice, I feel.
the point of saying anything about the wings is because the purple flash is barely slow enough to give ppl time to move before the attack lands and if you see the flash of gold and youre not where you have to be, chances are youre dying. howver, using the wings and staff as a visual tell will gives you more than plenty enough time to figure it out. look in the video. where's the gold flash? the purple flash is spottable but it happens like *flash* then the aoe circle shows up AND it goes off. unless you run exactly when the purple flashes, you might not make it.
@@TripLxChaos I've been using the Gold/Purple since I started farming, and I find it very reliable to never fail. It pretty much flashes right at the start of the move, and most importantly, if you hear her say "Can you Guess Which One?" that should cue you in to watch for something. Also, it also helps to hang around medium range the whole fight rather than do one extreme or the other. I play Red Mage, so I can constantly bouncing around into terrible terrible locations.
@asaeampan why are you so angry?
@asaeampan chill dude.
I don’t see why people are combatative over the suggestion of an alternative way... I didn’t say what she said was invalid. I pointed out one more way. Be civil people.
Great guide! Also at tether phase, it initially targets the closest person. So keep everyone else away and let the OT pick it up for smooth teather swaps.
The guides always make me think "oh gawd I aint gonna remember this" and after a while it all makes sense:)
For dragoon players. during the vines, you can use any of your jump ability to get over to the boss
Ty for the hint! 😉
If you switch it to DPS North and Tank/Heal South, DPS gain uptime on Puck during big adds.
Thank you!! I don't understand this DPS South during a *DPS check* strat.
Thank you lol never understood why PF groups do the other way
It's a relic of older tether/bramble fights where it didn't matter, so it just became Tank/Heal North and DPS South. People defaulted to old methods because they were familiar.
Time to learn somethin' new though.
@@Blacktiger299 it's a mix of the default strat being nonDPS north, DPS south, as well as mr happy's all-too-hasty guide release saying to do the same. His guides are often released too early and miss a lot of fight specific nuances
If you dare to suggest this in PF, you will be met with REEEEEEEEEEEEEs and rage quits.
Had static friends teach this fight to me and others tonight. Great video and fight and nice to see it out so fast.
Finally! You're the best, your voice and guide is the easiest to understand. Thank you!
Gotta run that like 10 times for glam pieces I want. Thank you for this.
"Or you will die" always makes my heart jump a lil
If u are a black mage.
this one just takes a lot of practice, don't let salty parties get you down.
I cleared this yesterday and I'm somewhat surprised I cleared it before the MTQ guide.
I found this raid to be pretty cool.
Best in the biz. Seen multiple guides so far this one helps alot.
Uhhhhh I think my brain shut down with all that info lmao.
Joking aside this fight is going to be a nightmare of a good time.
My small brain can’t even handle the normal one LOL
Same lmao
Smooth brane*
Frost Runr can actually be entirely ignored. Stack the party in the middle circle and heal/mitigate through it for Max DPS uptime, especially if you have mostly Melee DPS. A Scholar can solo heal/mitigate this strat using seraph's shield along with any other heal. A spread Critlo or a succor at the very least is recommended for the immediate damage aoe markers that follow after Frost Rune. You'll get a vuln stack but it's inconsequential.
I've started doing this, I sometimes mess up trying to avoid all of the hits and get whacked by two, but I know I can live one so I just park myself in the middle and keep casting.
I was actually waiting for you to post this you explain things incredibly easy for me to understand thank you
Im gonna try this on my Warrior tonight. This should be a real shit-show
A lot of raid groups are having DPS go north for the big add phase knock back for more up time and tanks/healers go south. DPS will always be hitting something and this strat will help if you are having issues with the DPS check.
Which is entirely unnecessary. Worst case scenario with DPS south, you lose a single gcd. If your group is dying because they cant keep enough damage for adds, then you won't make enrage anyway. The DPS North strategy is only useful for padding/speedrunning.
Ive cleared Titania Ex a dozen times for all the weapons with my Whitemage and Astro when she was freshly released. Iam going to join the game again tomorrow and propably gonna visit her for the good old times :)
I was able to get my first clear yesterday! Thank you for the guide it was really, really helpful.
ill have to just play it to try and understand it , these videos only help so much.
Yeah all these videos suck. People don't understand how to explain to people who never did it before. Every mechanics should be isolated and talked about in detail. like "look, when THIS happens, you should do THIS". The reason, the action and the purpose need to be made clear. Otherwise it's pointless and confusing. Best to read a text guide for first time. Then once you fail a few times and kinda know what's going on come back to the video and it will make sense (however, this shows how improperly structured the video is to begin with)
thx for making all these guides! they are helping ALOT!
Great to see your uploads again!
We got the two trials done already. Currently helping new players to clear this innocence ex.
This is the first time I've seen an MTQ upload the day it's released
What a time to be alive
It is very good that I like the music here because spending three hours on this fight for a clear will drive you insane.
Also my personal strat for telling Phantom Rune's cast, if she releases a cloud of red powder around her you go out, if she has the circle above her and a windy circle below her you go in.
Also also worth noting, for whatever reason her enrage cast is somewhat random in terms of if she'll cast a normal bright sabbath first then the enrage version, normal bright sabbath then divination rune then enrage, or just casts the enrage version right after the double phantom rune. It is probably how much you managed to damage her before the ad phase but from other accounts I hear it is just random.
Did it second try. Quick watch through with a little clarification of moments from some friends, and it was learnt! Thank you for a quick paced and clear cut guide.
I was a little unsure about the tether concept for Thunder Rune, though. Mostly information like, the amount of time to recognise and execute the positioning, how to organise that kinda thing as well as hand-off. But that came with seeing the fight and space. Nothing quite like actually doing it, to solidify information like this! :D
These puns always make my day.
Your guides are always so easy to grasp! Thanks for your content!
FINALLY a MTQcapture guide on this. All the other ones are so hard to follow compared to yours!
My goodness...I am not sure if I am excited or even more afraid of trying this thing...lol!
Thank you for the amazing guide, finally got my kill :P
The things I do for Giant Beaver.
That Berserk reference in the intro was perfect
My group just stacks in the middle for frost rune then runs in the direction of our puddle positions after its done, our tank also just stands still for that and the melee adjusts.This maximizes uptime on the boss and we noticed by doing that we didnt get anywhere near enrage during the first week this was out. For brambles we also do DPS north and tanks/healers south because during the big add phase we sometimes cant hit the boss from range and the melee gets screwed if we're pushed to the SE corner
Awesome video and thank you for putting in the Healer and Tank suggestions to the fight as well!
If you have a GNB in your party timing Superboilide about 2-3 seconds after eating the first zap, it will make it so you can eat 2 more and allow your DPS more time to focus on output before switching out to take the remaining. Great guide as always!
Paladin can take 4 hits. Heal after the first, then use Sheltron for the next hit, then invuln for the next two.
Your guides are so in depth. Wonderful channel
Oh no...
I don't see a PF clear in my future. Time to find an FC...
ty for the guide, i'll be trying this one tonight i hope.
It might be O3S strategy that make everyone think tank/healer go north and DPS go south.
But I think that DPS should go north instead to maximizing the DPS since in the giant adds phase, there's nothing to attack at south and lots of melee DPS in practice party dead because they're too busy attacking adds at north.
Edit: Just to be clear, love your content. Just point out that current trend is not fit the content.
lots of partys ii have disband if dps go north bc so many pfs go south
ik but at that point its a preference thing, i cleared long b4 any guides were made lol so doing n/s doesnt bother me since the dps still needs to be decent enough to kill the add with the downtime, i feel teq is going at this at a casual postition vs the way im sure we all would know by now
first time someone tried to tell me about T/H south DPS North that entire group explained it poorly and was like "It's to make titania move as little as possible". Obviously that's a moot point cuz of the growth formula phase since there's no way to keep her in one space during either of the 2 times she does it, ignoring the part where she does flame rune too. So for the longest time I thought DPS North was just a drunk troll strat
I'm glad someone finally explained this coherently
@@damienman25 also melee probs hate this fight with burning passion cause of range dmg being almost no existant in their kit and with so many knock back/segmenting of room type mechanics in the fight proper means no positionals and rip to bonus dps from them
john mcmasters as a drg main can confirm it’s really annoying
MTQ your guides are top notch now your slowing down a little, and i recommend you to all my raiders, thanks so much! awesome job!
@@bobjenkins9208 Imagine being stupid enough to think lol is the equivalent of your and you're... You're and your are two entirely different words so for you to compare them to 'lol' has got to be the stupidest thing I've read all day...
You are the best!! I only use your vids. Always well explained and gotta have those puns!!
Ive been trying to beat this for days lol
You tried Cinder Drift Ex yet?
made it much easier! thank you so much ^___^
This guide really makes it seem easy ! Otta try this out with my fc
Having not raided end game since t5 was the hardest thing in the game, this is boggling my brain.
Thank you for this guide it really helped.
friend of mine did normal mode we wipe once
I told him the extreme will be fun and he said it will be the same just have different mechanic.............................................................................................................................
I can't wait to make him say this is Impossible :D
Why did crown of the immaculete (extreme) seem a lot easier than this o_o....
this video really helped
I was waiting for your video befor trying
I want to know y titania's enrage casts so much faster than innocence or other extremes
They're a fairy king, and they tell you before the cast goes off that they're bored of fighting you. A bored fairy is a dangerous fairy.
@@cmdrfokker Aye me maytee, just as a hungry pirate is an angry pirate!
We all know the most difficult aspect of this encounter is Data Center Packet Loss.
Thank godddd you're here, maybe people will finally figure out how the fight works now.
True
Ok salty
tank and healer run to the south, dps to north -> keep boss south dps has gapcloser and boss goes to middle not soon after
-> addphase there will be more uptime on puck
Going back and doing some older content. Just finished Ruby Weapon EX and this seems a lot easier. Guess we'll find out tonight.
Ha. She said EXtit :^)
I cleared this by the grace of god. 😭😭😭 I still need to get mount drop so I guess I'll know the fight by the end.
I usually find youtubers smug and insufferable but I have to say I agree with every positive thing said about your guides. Thank you.
Oh how I've missed the puns
Thank you as always!
Ive beaten innocence ex and got all my accessories for my DK, but I'm so scared to do this one lol im ok not getting the weapon :)
personally I think Inno ex is a bit harder just because of the aoe bullet hells
Ahao really? I would disagree but i know that dps and healers definitely have to worry about more aoes.
I wiped the group 5 time during LOOT pt because I forgot mechanics.
They cheered me on and moved on. I need to re-learn. Ahem.
Good group!
COME AND PLAY! FOR THE NIGHT IS BRIGHT *and you can sleep when you're DEAD* ...
Wow. The Realm of Light is just bright HARDCORE.
This is a lot to remember. Does FFXIV have a version of the DBM addon?
The problem with this is that is all easy mechanics, but it is so overloaded and overbloated that all you see is a fking rainbow of colours and AoEs -_- Innonence EX got lots of AoE but at least you can tell what is happening and it's readable for the eyes.
I was thinking it would be great to time-stamp mechanics for reference as well?
get on it then :P
Oh god...
Anyone else watching these guides post dia and thinking extremes used to be so much simpler lol
THIS COUNTS AS SIMPLE?
@@kixmix2450 yea titania is the 2nd easiest shb trial behind innocence. Fights get Alot harder after. Without spoilers the fight SOS is about as hard as an easy savage fight and is the hardest trial in the game imo. Don't get discouraged tho the harder fights are so much fun and progging them feels rewarding.
watching this in DT trying to solo it and agreeing massively =p
When you say an immunity for solo tank does that mean holmgang/hallowed ground etc?
Correct, Superbolide, Living Dead, Holmgang or Hallowed Ground.
YAY FINALLY
How many cooldowns should one use for the Fae Lights?
jeezus
Just a PSA from someone who has already gotten a clear remember guys to pop food an pots lol I literally enraged at .8% an we had like 2 dps that didnt pop food or pots granted the next pull we got her but just wanted to make sure people r doing it lol
You don’t necessarily “need” the food though.
I usually see the tanks pop it for extra vit but rarely dps using it anymore in farm groups or other.
Mostly depends on how many mistakes are made than whether or not you ate first.
Does hg work against the frontal cone the tanks have to share?
Surprised how similar this is to the normal version.
The knockback mechsnic changes randomly though... for north shroud sometimes aims at left and south shroud aims at right side then what?? Do dps just stay in middle and stay behind the left side of south shroud and the north side stays right on its north shroud???
How do you transfer the tether? This wasn't addressed.
Just walk into it. And make sure you decide who takes it when and how many tethers the tank takes. The OT is the first one to take it.
I want to do Titania EX because I want her dancer weapons but my tiny brain just cannot understand what it is seeing XD
best guides xD
mt shouldnt take any hits from thunder rune?
You have an awesome voice! I bet you can sing also! :)
3:33 Wait, I don't think you need to share Fae Light with OT & MT stacking together; Multiple times I've seen MT survive by himself, and that with other skills than tank invulnerability. Correct me if I'm wrong, talking from sch pov.
It can be done either way. I've done both. Two tank stack or Invuln all 3. Depends on the group.
I prefer just tanking Fae Light solo during both instances.
And she Addresses that by saying a tank can solo with invuln
U can heal through it as well
Healing one tank is better than healing both, cause healer (especially whm) dps is now crazy
06:00 Did she say "bigger AND better"? Giggity, giggity, goo!
I find it really hard tovsee her wings for phantom rune. I noticed that if it is in a circle will appear around her feet the size of the safe zone for in and doesn't appear at all when it's out
do tanks still pick up the big versions of the adds or do they just do whatever
they wanna grab aggro still, but they should be helping dps down the eastern add as well as stacking to help soak the aoe damage
Did I hear a Berserk reference?!
Drop rate of mount is hot garbage. In my 64 clears it only dropped once. WTF.
to be fair, the mount drop rate has always been garbage. i got so frustrated with ponies i stopped farming for a year and a half, and got most of my birds in that time :P
Is that the blurred out dps meter that supposedly gets you banned in this game?
I was wondering if anyone here can help me, I finished the sb ms, talked to the wandering mistral and unlocked the 3 ex trials, but there nowhere to be seen in my duty finder, I cant access them but i unlocked them, I've unlocked Eden no problem but these ones aren't showing up, is this a bug?
@Warriorkiller666 oh, I've never seen that, I've been playing for years and didnt no, it seems kind of silly to make a new tab just for the new stuff
For the knock tether, the OT could easily take 3 if not 4 hits (if timing the cd right), follow by the assigned healer/dps. It is much better than doing with 6 peoples. I know this is a good guide but I HIGHLY encourage people to do this rather running 6 playes through the tether.
Cancer strat
@@penguinsareprettylame1667 actually no, majority of pug group does this. And it very easy for tank to take 3 hits and still be top off with the cd.
Riceyz if you do 6 solo hits, the healers don’t have to heal at all during them and can straight dps. This also allows tanks to use their invulns on fae light letting healers dps even more.
@@penguinsareprettylame1667 most tank can't take 6 hit tho I don't think. Even with most invul can only go for 2 more hits unless healers are on point. Something that is rare in pug group.
Riceyz 6 targets one hit each. Tanks invuln fae light not thunder tether
What is tank immunity? First time ive heard it
Invincibility skills. I.e. hallowed ground, living dead, Holmgang and superbolide
Off tank gunbreaker, dark knight, or pally can tank all 6 tethers. Makes for much better dps up time and honestly when its gunbreaker, it's very easy on the healers.
How do you pull that off?
@@NileSings You don't. The boss will launches an attack you every 3 sec during the tether phase until you are hit 6 times. What most offtanks players do during that phase is take the first hit normally then use an invulnerable ability to soak 2 more hits then they pass it to the next person in order. Why? Because the boss places a debuff on you where as if you take another hit with the tether on you, you die instantly. Idk where people keep getting the idea that they can soak all 6 hits when most invulnerable abilities of tanks last either 10 sec or less.
You dont? My gunbreaker ot was doing it all day yesterday for our farms. Dark knight as well a few nights prior.
ua-cam.com/video/hKzGhMo78dg/v-deo.html
@@RyanDotEXE Well damn lol
It's an amazing strategy. As a healer it makes my life so much easier and the dps poorly geared were getting her down to about 49-45% before adds.
As an english player in JP server I'm already giving up on even finding groups that can communicate in english for this shit lol
