Titan Glasshouse or The Armamentarium Exotic

I recently got my Titan up to 20 and have previous gear and was capable of getting to 29. I used the Glasshouse as my exotic as I main Defender for PvE. I have no backup plans as well but it doesn't seem all to worth it. Anyways this recent nightfall I was gifted by the RnG Gods of The Armamentarium. Now I ask as for others who have Titans which would you choose overall between the two and also if you wish to give me some imput on possible better exotic armor. Thank you in advanced!

  • Armamentariumn is crucible based. Two lightning grenades on one flag?? So annoying..but very effective.

  • Armamentarium for now. Get Saint-14 for sure if you PvE. Best exotic by far for most PvE encounters.

  • Armamentarium, because it is class-neutral.

    I usually only use the glasshouse if I'm running weapons of light. However, for the most part you're probably going to want the armamentarium, as the extra grenade is more useful in most situations. Really its the only solid exotic choice for titans, unless you're trying something tricky its the way to go. edit: i'm speaking pvp of course.

    • Any PS Titans experiment with Monte Carlo/No Backup Plans and a strength build?

      • I have every single titan exotic maxed out and here is my ranking for them. Top tier- Armamentarium Helm of saint 14 Ruin wings(pve only) Mid tier- Helm of innermost light The glasshouse Crest of alpha lupi The insurmountable skullfort(good for crotas end hard mode) No backup plans Mk.44 stand asides - don't -blam!-ing use these unless you're messing around They are not ranked within their tiers but this is generally how titan exotic armour is. [spoiler]ps this is all my opinoin so take it as you will. Pls no bully though.[/spoiler]

        • Armamentarium is good in any situation. Defender specific, it's really hard to beat Helm Of Saint 14. Both of these can excel at crowd control. The Armamentarium is better with lightning grenades and increased duration as a striker for crowd control though.

        • Go with the two nade titties, use them to create choke points in pvp, lighting and concussion grenades work well.

        • Defender = Glasshouse for overall usage. Helm of Saint 14 for raids. Striker = Helm of inmost light.

          I have and am leveling a bunch of titan exotics for various situations and reasons. Helm of Inmost Light - great for striker in PvP or PvE where it's useful (strikes with oodles of low level dregs/thrawl and a defender titan already on the team) Armamentarium (typically striker) - sweet for PvP maps where the extra grenade comes in handy or where I may use up a lot more ammo. Almost useless to me in PvE with all the ammo dropped on the ground though. Glasshouse - a MUST whenever I'm running defender. Just 'CAUSE. :) (obviously this gets replaced in the lineup if Helm of St-14 ever drops for me) Ruin Wings - Just got them the other day. Not sure they'll be THAT useful but the faster revives might be worthwhile in PoE. Crest Of Alpa-China - Just got this one too. Might as well level it and look for a good use. If none is found in a few weeks then I have a free shard to ascend my other exotic gear once HoW drops. Guess I'm just sharing my thoughts on my own gear. In other words, try it all. See what fits. You might be surprised.

          • I use glass house on aetheon boss fight and crota boss fight (if I'm bubble man). Saint helm for lanterns and gate keeper. And armourmantium was great until I bought ruin wings the first time xur sold it. Now I only take it off for raids...

          • Out of the two the armamentarium wins hands down, especially on striker. Best in PvP imo. Pve you for sure want ruin wings, heavy for years

              The only time i run glass house is for raids. Other than that, use the armamentarium

              • Armentarium. Bubbles last long enough so glasshouse isn't that great.

              • Use no backup plans with weapons of light plus increase strength and duration of force barrier plus melee kills produce orbs of light and have 100% strength for fast cool down. It's an amazing PvE build and it's fun as hell

              • Use Helm of Saint 14 when you're dealing with suspected new pvpers (Low Levels) or for the first match you play. This minimizes the possibility that people are prepared for the Helm's Special Ability. There are times in a crucible match that I can't recognize the armor on a titan while he/she is chilling in a bubble, therefore the chance of me rushing into the bubble for a shotgun/FOH are reduced. Once I see some defender grenades being thrown around, I'm usually on my guard and are being wary of bubbles. Think about the camera from Bioshock 2 or telling a joke over and over the exact same way. This is the same philosophy as with the Defender Saints. Once an enemy has run into a blinding bubble, the jig is up and you (as the Saint Defender) have played your ace. The enemy team if observant/intelligent/ or communication focused, is now fully aware of the glorious sunlight of your bubbles. This means that they will often refrain from charging into your bubble, and if they are charging you need to consider two possible factors. These two factors are: The enemy is careless/stupid/overconfident. This opponent can be your delicious prey, falling repeatedly into your trap and placing themselves entirely at your mercy. Be wary that they might melee you until you die, since melee is auto-tracking, or get lucky with a grenade stick or shotgun blast. Lady Luck is a fickle mistress in this situation. The other factor is: The enemy is charging balls for you and they're super charged. If its a titan, back the f**k out and try to build the gap between you and the titan. (Often blinded titans will FOH when they enter the bubble, panicking and hoping for a multi-kill. ). Voidwalker Warlocks operate in much the same manner, they'll usually freak and Panic Bomb the shit out of your bubble. Hunters are a mixed bag, if you see a blade dancer coming bail son bail! Arc Blade auto-targets and will kill you even if they're blinded. Gunslingers are a huge coin flip. If you don't move when they enter the bubble they'll just blind fire and kill you, if you're flying around your shelter they might blind fire and miss. But you run the risk of them getting lucky and hitting you, and if they miss they'll probably take out your bubble with the GG.
