Phase 1-2 - dodge as per the linked diagram.
From this point until titan dies: After every landslide, expect plumes
Phase 3: There are two bomb formations in this phase. These will alternate until the end of the phase:
Circle bombs:
These bombs will drop one after the other, clockwise around the edge of the platform, with the final one landing in the centre of the platform.
Remember where the first bomb dropped.
To avoid:
1. Wait where the last bomb dropped (centre).
2. When the first bomb that dropped explodes, run over to where it exploded.
Avoid the landslide that will follow.
Avoid plumes.
Cross bombs:
These will drop in a sort-of cross shape on the platform, with a cluster of them dropping in the centre.
To avoid:
1. Move into one of the safe areas between two of the outside bombs, on a side of the platform that isn't the tank side.
Avoid the landslide that follows.
Avoid plumes.
Heart phase: First gaol: DPS need to
break this person out asap, then focus on heart for the rest of the phase (while avoiding stuff).
Avoid landslide.
Avoid plumes.
Second gaol:
Ignore this until heart dies.
Avoid landslide.
Avoid plumes.
Once heart dies, break second gaol and stack as a group (gather very close) for cure 3.
Final phase:Healers need to look out for mountain buster, which will come after every landslide (also right at the start of this phase).
Virus: Anyone who has this, try to use just before stomps as it can reduce stomp damage output by a significant amount.
Using sprint for bombs/plumes in this phase can be helpful.
There are three bomb formations in this phase. These will alternate until titan dies:
(Keep in mind that after each of the bomb sets, plumes will be coming soon after)
Row bombs:
These bombs will drop in rows of three, alignment is random.
There are a couple of different ways to do this set, but I'll just outline my preferred method (the one less likely to get people knocked off or killed by bombs).
To avoid:
1. Wait at the middle bombs until landslide appears.
2. As soon as landslide appears, move to the row of bombs that dropped last.
3. As soon as landslide explodes, move to the middle bombs.
Circle bombs: The same formation as phase 3 bombs, with a couple of slight twists: Landslide (+ drop order I think?).
These bombs will drop in a circle, the same as phase 3.
To avoid:
1. Wait a the centre bomb.
2. When landslide appears, move out of the effect area (stay as close as possible to the centre bomb as you can without being hit by landslide).
3. When landslide explodes, move to the bombs that have exploded.
Cross bombs: The same formation as phase 3 bombs, with a slight twist: Landslide.
To avoid:
1. Wait at one of the bombs in the middle (not the one that's dead centre).
2. When landslide appears, move into one of the safe areas between two of the outside bombs.
