Hello all,
Just wanted to share my input on doing Titan EX. The method that I usually do is as what jackie has said, which is to bring at least 2 healers into the fight. This is because Titan will gaol 1 healer and 1 DPS. There are 2 options here:
1) Let both gaols die, and have the alive healer resurrect them
2) Position the DPS and healers apart, so the gaols can be DPS'ed down (if you have more people and are able to DPS the gaols down)
This method is typically floating on the platform, above the head of Titan. Note that on Phase changes, he will fly up and jump down, causing everyone to drop on the platform (gravity move). All you need to do is to teleport back to the floating coordinates, and perform an action / buff so you'll register your position.
jm86 is also right though, in the sense that there is a method to prevent titan from gaol'ing you, but it is buggy and tricky to perform. Firstly, teleport yourself just outside the platform and above the level of titan's head, and ensure that no one is left on the platform before you pull the boss. Titan will be bugged, and will not perform any moves. HOWEVER, Titan becomes invulnerable at 50% no matter how much you DPS him. So you'll need to return to the platform, where he will perform his jump move TWICE. (hence sucking you down, making you fall onto the platform twice). Here, performing actions to register your floating location can be buggy, and Titan will often pummel you to death even though it shows that you're in the air. Have never successfully completed via this method, as it's hard to coordinate. Besides, any group that triggers this invulnerability can be easily flagged and picked up by SE, so I don't think it's such a great idea.
