Row bombs are the next major thing to worry about. Some patterns are harder to deal with than others. The pattern where the safe spot is along the south edge is the easiest because you can just sit it out there. But the other formations require you to bait the landslide just like you did with the bomb pattern at the start of the phase. In this case everyone should stack on the same bomb until the landslide animation appears and then move to the bomb row that will explode last. Once the first set of bombs explode you can move to this safe spot.

You should now be getting ready for super bombs. This is a DPS check so attack buffs should be saved for it and BLMs should have almost full MP and be under Astral Fire III stance in preparation. When the bombs drop you will notice there are no safe spots. The party should move to a single bomb and kill it, this is usually the bomb directly south of Titan. Titan will jump as the bombs explode so if you fail the DPS check you will be hit by two very strong AoEs and the party will wipe.

Assuming you got past this part, be ready for the landslide after Titan's jump. At this point the off-tank should be ready to pick up adds and everyone else apart from the main tank should be stacked south just like after heart phase.

The rest of the fight is just a repeat of what we've seen already but you should aim to produce as much DPS on Titan as you can as this rotation can only be repeated twice. If you reach the end of it the second time then Titan will use Earthen Fury again and wipe the party. If Titan is under 5% and you reach the Super Bombs again you should DPS Titan rather than the bomb. This is your only chance at winning at this point.
