Why do Warlocks get the Ram?

The Ram provides warlocks extra armor. Because of that, they can survive things other classes cannot, including even a golden gun shot. Now, last time I checked, Titans are supposed to be the "tank" class of destiny no? Why do the warlocks, who already get ranged melees, ranged supers, self resurrection, and blink, among other tricks, get the extra armor? Shouldn't the Titan get the extra armor? After all, many Titan abilities require you to get very close to your opponent and they cannot blink. Then there is also the bubble, Titans REALLY need extra armor for that to be of any use, because purple bubble becomes purple super attractor. So, why do Warlocks get the extra armor exotic, but not Titans? Did Bungie forget Titans were the heavy armor tank class? Let me add this point in about the Ram though: It boosts your armor in iron banner and trials of osiris, but I do not know if it makes any kind of difference inside regular crucible. Edit: Ok, after reading all of the comments, apparently being able to survive a golden gun shot depends on the distance of the shooter. This is because golden gun has a damage drop off, something I was not previously aware of.

  • Its not from damage drop off that they survive. A sunsinger warlock with maxed armor and radiance/radiant skin running can tank one shot. This has been proven on youtube a few times already

    • What I Think a lot of people are not understanding about balance and destiny is that it doesn't happen all at once. For example as far as supers go both Hunter and the warlock each had a mobile super the Titan did not. But in TTK you notice that the Titan gets a mobile super. I think this also applies to gear. Yes the ram gives the warlock extra armor although I don't have the ram and I've spent many a strange coin on engrams trying to get it I've got everything but that. I think in the end the balance will be fine but they're not going to give every class the same balance at once. Some people may not like this or even understand it but I think it encourages people to use other classes and keeps the variety in the game better than if they would give all the balance at once.

      • There is no "tank" class only six variations of the dps class as Destiny is an FPS before anything else

          • If the warlock knows how to spec a character correctly you can survive a golden gun at any range. But most kids are bad. So.

            [quote]It's people like you that ruin the game and get things nerfed. LIKE SRIOUSELY WHO CARES THAT LIKE SAYING WHY DO HUNTERS GET GOLDEN GUN AND TITANS DONT! If you really thinks it's unfair then go play a different game. Plus warlocks are fricking magical.[/quote] Just quoting because this needs to be seen again. Also, Warlock's are the middle/ balanced class of the three, so it makes sense.

          • I know this is a few weeks old but this video shows most things you can survive. And yes, Golden Gun is included. Not my video.
