A little about me, but more about us

Hello Guardians, I'd like to start a thread not so much about me, but to better understand how everyone thinks about your favored class and what you feel your roll is. Races included =) Here goes. I favor the Titan class as my main. Race of choice is Exo because, come on, they so closely resemble our favorite autonomous robotic organisms from the planet Cybertron! You know it, I know it - and I know you know I know! *Ahem* Apologizes for my quirkiness. Anyways, I feel my job as a titan is to be directly in the fray of battle. To keep the enemies attention on me so that I can take the damage that you don't have to. My current subclass as a Titan is Defender (2-3 perks from being completely leveled). I originally started as a Striker because being a tank and damage dealer is oh so much fun! But that had to change because 1) I had maxed Striker subclass out first and 2) I noticed that heroic strikes and missions, the daily and weekly, were to hard for a 'pug' team to complete in a reasonable amount of time while I was a Striker. Also it's kinda the first subclass you're put into from the get go, but that's not important ^_^ For those of you who are not familiar with MMO lingo, the term pug often refers to a randomly assembled team of players. So I wasn't being rude when I called them pugs. I love pug teams - you meet new folks, get to learn from their fighting styles, etc. But it becomes exceptionally hard, in my experience anyways, when running anything on heroic. Most of this is due to the team chat system in place currently, or lack thereof... (Please fix this Bungie!) But I digress... The way I see my Titan serving everyone around me is to act as your shield while you hunters and warlocks (and Titan Strikers too) pummel the crud out of the enemy. PvP is a little different, but that's another topic for another time =) I hoped you enjoyed learning a little bit about me, my choice in class/race, and how I feel I best fit into a squad. Share a little bit about yourselves. I want to know what class/race you favor, and how you feel you fit into a squad. What role you believe you play, and how you see yourself playing at higher levels of power (light). Strength and Honor, Guardians!

  • I am also a Titan, but I like to switch between the striker and defender depending on the situation. When i play in the crucible its always striker, but when i do strikes and story missions I play as a defender in order to get the shield capability. I have a slightly different playstile than Caanenwolf however, instead of charging head on I like to pop in and out of cover, eventually flanking the enemy and filling them with lead from my auto rifle. I played around with scout rifles and pulse rifles but eventually landed on the auto rifle just for the sheer amount of dps it can do. I'm really fired up about this clan because I'm looking for a group that can actually communicate and work together to get in those higher level missions. I have been working strictly with "pug" teams so far (thanks for that by the way, i learned a new word today), and It has become extremely frustrating having to guess at what these guys are thinking. Bottom Line for me: if you see me online, by all means add me into your team. Im not picky about what game modes, i'm always willing to help out, and I am always down for some good convo. Look forward to seeing you all out there.

    • Nice post. I'm a Titan Striker mainly, will probably switch over to Defender every once in a while to level that side up, but I like jacking shit up so Striker is my favorite. I went with Human because I heard the hair was supposed to be great...it's not, really. I consider myself to be pretty on point with head shots so I like to pick off as much as I can before getting in there. I know it's not really the Titan way but it's been working pretty well so far. Looking forward to playing with you guys and meshing out some god strategies!
