Terrible Titan Exotics

I suspect this topic won't receive much attention, and even if it does it'll probably be looked over, but I want to talk about certain gear in this game that goes to a certain class. I'm talking about the Titan and its Exotics. The Titan is the class I enjoy using the most because I don't really care for magic or flashy knife tricks; I just want to aim my weapon at enemies and pull the trigger. Now, the Titan itself is underwhelming in many ways, but I'll save that for another thread; what I would like to talk about now is its underwhelming Exotics. All of the Titan's Exotics, when compared to the other classes' Exotics, are [i]terrible[/i]. I don't want to throw this out there without giving some substance to my claim, so, let me tell you [i]why[/i] the Titan's Exotics are so terrible, and why Bungie should rectify these problems. Let's start off with the worst, shall we? [b]Glasshouse[/b] is an Exotic Helmet that extends the duration of Blessing of Light and Weapons of Light. Do you know by how much? I'll tell you: five seconds. That is [i]five[/i] seconds longer that you have to run from your Ward of Dawn into the foray of enemy fire to deal damage. Or, maybe it's so that when WoD, an abbreviation of Ward of Dawn to speed this up, disappears, you have [i]five[/i] seconds longer to hold on to your precious overshield or damage buff before it's gone. Five seconds: that is the power of the Titan's Exotics. [b]No Backup Plans[/b] gives exactly the same buff that [b]Glasshouse[/b] does: [i]five[/i] seconds added to the duration of Force Barrier. [b]An Insurmountable Skullfort[/b] provides you with a perk that, by itself, is already underwhelming: Transusion. Its description reads: "Improved Transfusion," but there is no such improvement, it is the exact same as the Transfusion provided by the perk. For what? So you can select Aftershocks or Headstrong? Is that the power of Titan Exotics, that I don't have to select an underwhelming perk, I can just equip it at the low, low cost of an Exotic? That's just as bad as [b]Helm of Inmost Light[/b]. [b]Armamentarium[/b] slides an additional grenade, yet Sunsingers can do that exact same thing without equipping an Exotic. Y'know, I think I've complained longer than the amount of time I've been given to complain. Please, Bungie, if all you were to do this Holiday season is give Titan's Exotics the buffs they sorely need, I, and the Titan community, would forever be grateful. TL;DR: Titan Exotics are [i]bad[/i] and they need a buff, now. - Sincerely, a Titan (P.S: I also have a Warlock and a Hunter, all of whom are 31.) (P.S.S: For some reason, when people click on my profile, they see, "This account hasn't played Destiny," and everyone suspects I'm a troll because of this. If this could be fixed I'd be eternally grateful for that, too.)

    • Helm of saint-14 is the best. Nothing beats having a blinding bubble wether its pve or pvp.

      Not sure if you're trollin' here but allow me to enlighten you and share my thoughts. I'll agree with you in the fact that those exotics listed with the exception of armatarium are all pretty sub par. However I'll now list the 5 exotics you will ever need. 5) Crest of Alpha Lupi - handy chest but situational, good in skirmish matches and raiding, quick revives and extra orbs for your fireteam. Throw on the defender perk for extra orbs and watch them spill out. 4) The Armamentarium - Double grenade + the discipline to go with it. Grenade spam. You say warlocks get two grenades by default. So? We are titans, we don't need 2 grenades, most of the time. 3) Helm of Inmost Light - Best exotic for strikers. Nuff said. If you need an explanation as to why then you need to switch to a #canttakeahitgrenadespammingsunbrowarlock 2) Ruin Wings - Say bye bye to heavy weapon synth's. Plus they look awesome. And the number 1) slot goes to: 1) Helm of the Saint-14 - The utility of this piece of armour makes it unbelievable. Blinding bubble for you and your fireteam buddies to hide in when thrall are swarming you, capture control points either defensively or offensively, pro revives. The list goes on. Not to mention how quickly it recharges your super when killing enemies of the darkness. Oh yeah, it also gives you a -blam!-ing badass looking Mohawk. So there's my retort to your claims about exotic armour needing a buff. I disagree with you as you've only listed half of them and the underwhelming half at that.

      • You think titan exotics are bad? What about hunter exotics? We have two maybe three decent exotics. Mask of the third man, knucklehead radar(only for pvp), and acliophage symbiote. If anyone needs better exotics it is the hunters

        • If they are gonna buff titan exotics I would like a small buff to Helm of Saint-14. Just a small buff that makes enemies flinch when being blinded by the helm so it stops thier melee/shot for a second. Would be invaluable in pve and a nice small buff for pvp.

        • If you're not signed in on your game account that's probably why they don't see it also I think titans are fine and I have a blast on mine especially with inmost light

        • I would approve these changes NBP: add 10 seconds to force barrier and additional strength Insurmountable Skullfort: switch it from kills to hits to activate transfusion Inmost Light: the further you fall the bigger the boom... You know........ Your god has arrived Ruin Wings: may RNGesus add a small 5-7% boost to these things.. Cause sometimes I get crazy heavy ammo drops without them Armamentarium: no changes Crest of Alpha Lupi: don't have this but I suspect no change Helm of Saint 14: don't have this either :( but no change Just my thoughts Also for defender I would like for Unbreakable to recharge blessing and armor of light while inside the bubble so you won't have to leave.

            Did you miss the [b]Ruin Wings[/b] sale? Because that is easily my favorite and most useful Exotic, and I hardly do anything with my Titan.

            • I got my Titan all the way through VoG on hard and all the way to the wizards on CE with the Helm of Saint-14. Definitely good in all situations

            • Armantarium is ok, but I've noticed it still end up often with only one granade because you throw one more often then they recharge. Ruin wings doesn't help AT ALL. If anything heavy ammo drops less, only pro is when it FINALLY does drop, you get 4. And sometimes I'll be just messing around and most often when I need it most, I'll get more heavy drops than I need, I've never gotten this when I actually need it

              • I don't know who to belive, lots of people say the Titans have the worse armor, but others say they have the best, I dnt have the most experience with Titans but the armentarium and ruin wings are one of the best, If not the best exotic armors, and Ya locks get an extra base but the lock nades suck, belive me, ruin wings, I've heard from numerous ppl that they never run out of heavy, plus they look sexy, I mean at least u Titans have had a chance to experience ur armor xur sells vestments and sunbreakers 85% of the time so locks have to get lucky in the nightfall to rely on armor

                • Ruin Wings. I have them. Do you know what it likes to have so many rockets that you don't know what to do with them? Because I do. And it's awesome.

                    • Insurmountable skull fort is the only one that needs a buff. Regular Titan striker melee isn't great. Defenders is good but i would take no back up plans if I'm a defender.

                      • I like the insurmountable skullforts transfusion, like you said allows us to put the perk on something else like aftershocks with lightning grenades is amazing. Also when you shoulder charge someone you regenerate health. No backup plans suck. Armamintarium is decent but still Crap don't care about an extra grenade. Glass house don't own it so I can't give my opinion. Only good exotics are Ruin Wings, Helm of Saint 14, Insurmountable Skullfort, and that's it

                      • I agree some should be changed to be more on par with others, but what really grinds my gears is when ppl go into the ward of dawn with a shotgun and can ohk me while I have blessings of light active I truly believe they should receive damage for going into our bubble but I guess thats just me complaining saints 14 is nice since it blinds them but shotguns still blast away

If it's still floating around when I come back, then I'll be sure to pick up the conversation where we left off. Thank all of you, Hunters, Warlocks, and Titans!

                      • Skullfort is a beast, as for armamentarium you get 2 grenades regardless of class and perk build...those Warlocks only get 2 on Sunsinger.

                        • I feel that ruin wings are very solid. They don't do anything for abilities, sure, but that heavy ammo + orb drop on heavy kills = win.
