Why is the Titan's Ward of Dawn useless?

In Destiny, he who draws his special first wins. Titan Fist of Havoc strikes before Hunter Golden Gun= Fist of Havoc Wins. Warlock Nova Bomb before Titan Fist of Havoc = Nova Bomb wins. Hunter Blade Dancer strikes before Warlock Nova Bomb = Blade Dancer wins. HOWEVER, Titan Ward of Dawn activated before Warlock Nova Bomb/ Hunter Golden Gun = Nova Bomb/ Golden Gun wins. Does this seem a little odd to you? The Titan's Ward of Dawn is rendered utterly useless. Perhaps, like the Blade Dancer or the Fist of Havoc, let the Ward of Dawn protect from outside assaults and let those activated within Ward of Dawn kill those inside it. To clarify, 2 shots from the Golden Gun or 1 Nova Bomb destroys the Ward of Dawn prematurely. The Nova Bomb also kills EVERYONE inside the bubble at the same time. If I put up my Ward of Dawn immediately and then the Warlock strikes it with Nova Bomb, my Special was an exercise in utter futility. I am dead and so is anyone who thought that my special was worth a glimmer.

  • Warn of dawn is useless as a super ability. It's just a little bit better than towering barricade. But other protector abilities are awesome for yourself and teammates (overshield, restore health). I'm seriously thinking to begin a new Titan character. And not spend a skill point in this stupid bubble.

  • You forgot to mention all the noobs who rush in w/ shotguns and get wrecked while your shield is up. It's support it's not meant to make you invincible inside it otherwise teams could just run that and constantly keep a bubbler over their team just by picking up orbs everyone would drop.

  • As a Titan, when I play Striker I usually save my super to counter other supers, and that's how most other supers work. However, the Defender isn't the same, it's much more of a support class to be used in conjunction with other team members, or as a way to defend against a close surprise assault.

    • Enemies that enter should take continuous dmg, there needs to be some kind of buff... how bout Ward of Dawn increases your grenade recharge rate while active? So many possibilities, up to Bungie to figure it out, suggestions are free advice for them.

      • If you have the Saint's Helm it becomes a trap that blinds foes. Nothing funnier than watching a charging Striker come in for the kill and then panic like a giant spider plopped onto their backs.

          It's not about what's stronger. It's about the strategy within each class. When and where to use each super. Don't like the ward of dawn? Play a different class.
