Please fix the titan "Catapult" skill, It is glitched
Not sure if anyone else has noticed this but [b]the titan's third jump ability, known as the catapult, is broken[/b]:
-The catapult offers no benefits whatsoever and is actually [b]slower than if a titan was running no second jump buffs at all[/b]...It lasts for approx. 3 seconds
I believe[b] the intended use of this ability was to[/b] be similar to Halo 4 or Halo Reaches thruster pack which was meant to [b]offer a significant boost in a certain direction,[/b] but[i] instead it merely offers a jet pack that lasts for 3 secs and is slower than all other jump upgrades[/i] (I've tested it)
I'm honestly surprised that[b] no one at Bungie[/b] nor the player base (though titan is rather underplayed and so people may have simply not noticed it due to a low saturation of players) [b]noticed that it's entirely broke[/b]
When the game was yet to be released [b]there was a patch stating that Bungie was addressing the random screen effects caused by the Titan Catapult,[/b] but I believe they accidentally glitched the catapult as now it does nothing
Considering both the warlock and hunter both have a blink ability offering them significant speed in traversal I'd say[b] the titans need this catapult ability as well...[/b] (preferably unbroken/glitched)
If your running a Titan character or know someone who can attest to this as well please voice your opinion or experence here and hopefully [b]Bungie will notice[/b]
(Also apologies for the excessive bold text, its meant to help those who suffer from TLDR Syndrome haha)
Also please leave a reply or like if you agree so Bungie will see and acknowledge this...
Thank you ^-^

We know it has been broken and useless since launch. It just keeps getting erased from the whiteboard at bungie hq.

1 ReplyI must've been the only one imagining a hulk jump in the air, as if being catapulted in to the sky..I was so sad..went back to increased height..I love my titan but I swear we got shafted..the tank class with the least coolest melee stuff. I can pretty much kill a archon priest inside my ward off dawn, but a Hunter with blade dance..not even a chance..I think hunters need to be reevaluated

3 RepliesI'm all for fixing things in this game but if a Titan sneezes it gets an damn over shield.

So its because of our agility. If we have high agility and low armor, it actually helps lift us up faster than anything else.

8 RepliesI thought Catapult's purpose was to be a fast vertical level-change for Titans, seeing as how their other two jump alts are very slow and floaty (i.e. makes the Titan a big piñata in the air). Catapult doesn't give a long burn time like Improved Control, or a high vertical distance like Increased Height, but it does lift the Titan off the ground very rapidly. It seems only to really be useful with a quick double-tap. If you're looking for extended straight flight, use Improved Control instead. It gives you the added horizontal thrust. Catapult is just for a short vertical liftoff for twitch-dodge purposes. That's just what I've noticed. I haven't played any PvP in quite some time, so don't know if people are still using it.

I use Catapult as a strafe, since it can be used multiple times in a row. It's pretty good with shoulder charge, too. http://www.destinygamewiki.com/wiki/Catapult

Catapult needs buff.
-
Yup, tested EXTENSIVELY and I came to a similar conclusion. I figured bungie didn't care enough to really do anything.
-
yeah dude I agree, bump
-
Suvh bullshit aye
-
Yup. I can testify to this.
-
My main is titan striker, i stopped choosing the 3rd jump because it didnt do anything. Id have noticed a sligjt boost coz i notice it on my warlock. It does seem broken.
-
I play a Defender, Titan is love Titan is life. Anyway yeah I kinda noticed it but I though it was pretty pointless because when I tried it, there was practically no difference besides it was just a shorter Lift.

1 ReplyI've noticed this, I just assumed it sucked. I use upgraded height boost anyway.
-
It has boosted me quickly out of the way of shotguns and even a Nova Bomb once, but it's not much faster than Increased Control and getting up to ledges is a struggle. Catapult propels you in the direction you're moving, so running towards a ledge before you jump means face planting on the wall underneath the ledge, unless you stop and jump up first. I like the idea of trading overall mobility, like jumping up to high ledges, for an increase in evasive mobility, like dodging a melee attack, but Catapult needs a serious boost in acceleration. I'm sure it's been suggested already, but I'd like to see Catapult function more like Blink with a few key differences: - Acceleration is not nearly as fast as Blink - Can be cancelled mid-burn - Provides greater height than Blink - RIDE A BALL OF FIRE

Honestly had no idea what it even did just unequipped it and moved on lol

3 RepliesI remember when I unlocked catapult. Wooooo Catapult! <Equip> Catabungaaaaa! <Use> .... <sad face> <Unequip Catapult>

1 ReplyKnow what's funny? I bet they got the 3rd and 4th tier abilities messed up so one day when it's " fixed " you will notice that the 3rd tier no longer works lul

2 RepliesI just thought it was supposed to be that way so I stopped using it, ha
-
I agree with you... I changed back to the lower lift level as it was more beneficial
