The problem for me is that with her 5* stats she doesn't have the HP to survive even with her barrier. I don't have the gear and materia to get her hp up enough.

Can you break? Breaking Titan's ATK is the single most important thing you can do in that fight. Her barrier alone won't cut it either, you need to slap up a Guard Order too.

Do you have any/enough HP +10% Materia? You can get them pretty easily from Rizer's TMR, now wouldn't be a terrible time to burn through all your friend points and sell off the completed smooshed together units and hope you get one or three extra. Most of the friend point units are terrible, but there are a few decent TMRs there like HP +10%, many -killers, Sunbeam, Raging Fist, Camouflage, Escape...

Orlandeau break, protectga, barrier, and all the 10% materia I can slap on with room for a equip h armor to give her some more def and she still died instantly when I broke the heart.

Do you have anyone who can draw attacks? That's pretty much the only way I survived the latter tiers. Even though it's pretty much guaranteed that unit will get got blown away half way through the fight, my remaining party would usually still have enough juice left to finish the job.

I have Cecil with golem to give him provoke, he is the only tank I have at Max lvl, but his gear is far from stellar.

If you have the DPS to take him down I can throw up my Wilhelm after maint. His LB is maxed which gives a 3 turn 74% def and 1 turn 54% damage reduction. With his counters, all the tumult spam, and his buff that increases atk/mag/lb fill rate it will probably charge at least every 2 turns. Haven't tried him on Titan since I pulled him after I cleared the trial but he did great work for me during octopus trial.

You don't have anyone else to break? I skimmed your previous posts and see you have Aileen and no Orlandeu, you should try to use an Aileen friend for chaining if you can and someone else like Rain, if you have absolutely no one else, to break.

I know the whole "just bring two Orlandeu!:v:" thing is annoying, I've got one decent-ish (846 ATK) Orlandeu which, paired with a Goon with nearly 1100 ATK, took Titan down in three turns. No finishers.

Titan is not immune to earth damage, nor does he use any elemental damage at all. Aileen has Stone Killer built in, and if you slap Golem on her, and give her another one from King Giott's TMR, you can get even more effect, since they're all from different sources. Two Aileens should be able to get him down in three turns too.

If you have Noctis use Fish, or have Cecil Provoke (Aileen should still probably be plenty powerful without Golem if you go this way) when you break the core, all you have to worry about it is the Tumults. And probably raising Noctis.

So that third accessory from the BF event, the one with a nondescript passive? It's actually 10%Phys/Mag evade.
There's also an Elite Maxwell with some moogles, coins and tickets. More info here.

Theoretical Maximum Magic Evade, after catching up with current JP: 45%

20% Base (Lightning and Fryevia can do this)
10% - Tetra Sylpheed, the wind esper
10% - Lucky Bangles (GL Exclusive item we are getting tomorrow)
5% - Defender (Greatsword, part of the next FFT event)

The problem with an evasion stat is really, unless you're at 100%, you can't depend on it, making it a bad stat to stack unless you can get it really, really high.

Luke Cage just shut you down!
Getting Whitebrim from "The Gathering - The Gathering" is proving to be very difficult to me.

On my best attempt, I had a maxxed out 6-star Fohlen guest, so I was able to land a few precious hard hits on the bosses before they annihilated my entire team in a single turn (Seriously, why can those two attack like 6 times each? Jesus gently caress). I payed 100 Lapris to rez and managed to chain Stongas with my Y'shtolas and then finish with all my Limit Breaks to get the Whitebrim from the cat boss... except it literally survived with like 3% health. So, no Whitebrim for me.

Could anyone help me out? My ID is 209,464,963. I'd really appreciate it!

Probably not, but now they're max level for their rank just so I could make room to pull more. Got all the story characters up to max rank/level too except Lasswell since I don't want to burn 6* mats on him yet.

Here's the reddit post about the EX system from January when it launched there.

Basically it's a VIP reward for people that buy Lapis, with the last reward being an exclusive unit somewhere around the $450 USD mark, theoretically 4 of the $100 USD lapis bundles and 1 of the $50s will get you everything, it's possible they'll increase the cost to an even 5 of the $100 USD bundles. You won't get anything retroactively, so if you're thinking about buying Lapis you should probably wait until after the system goes into effect, however other than the guaranteed 5* ticket and the unit, you aren't missing much. Of course we don't know that the rewards will be the same so wait and see I guess.
