Titan Class's broken melee
So yeah, i started off as a titan. Maxed out striker and around 2/3 of the subclass. I decided to roll the other 2 classes just for excrement and laughter. I wasn't expecting [i]too[/i] much of a difference: Shoot, shoot; bang bang; Dodge to reload; repeat. Low and behold the experience was Much better.
It was also pretty damn blatant WHY it was so much better too. Both the Hunter and Warlock's melee attack reach further than the Titans. At least 2-3 virtual feet more. Or maybe half again as far. I don't know, i just know I've been playing a nerfed class from the get-go. Instead of nerfing quest rewards fairly earned, how about you fix broken class mechanics.
To be sure, i'm not calling for a nerf for Hunters Or Warlocks. I want the Titan brought up to their level.

Titan's melee reach is too short. Fix dat shit.[/b]

honestly at first I thought the same thing. I have been playing a striker titan since day one and I have learned to really take advantage of the melee strikes. The key is in the build, for me adding shoulder charge plus wave for havoc has changed the whole way I play. It has taken me 2 weeks to really start mastering the striker skill set and I am now starting to really enjoy it. I am sure tweaks will be made over time to each class, but it is really intriguing to see how each class n subclass fits a gamers style of play. I have always played best as a "go get em" type tank. To me the striker titan fits me perfect. The only real issue I think is catapult, I have not figured out if it broken or I just do not know how to use it yet. This just my opinion and I should qualify it with I am strictly a pve gamer. So I am sure there are many that would disagree with me and some that would agree. In the end the reach of the storm fist is longer than you think :). I have been practicing on patrol modes to find the actual ranges of each type of strike and surprisingly after a while I found storm fist is a little further range than I thought as you actually do lunge when you use it. It just doesnt look like it on screen cause it happens so fast. Hope this helps you, but again just my opinion, I suggest find the class you enjoy the most by how it fits your play style.
