Shoulder Charge Is a Bit Much - READ EVERYTHING BEFORE COMMENTING

Edit 4: Consider this video, what if he lost his momentum for turning to much? He would need to use a gun. Edit 3: I've played as a Titan before, I've used shoulder charge before. Please don't make comments saying I have never tried playing Titan. Please read the WHOLE post CAREFULLY(that includes the edits) before commenting. Don't just respond to the title please. This post is about shoulder charge only. If you want to make a comment against my suggestion, at least know what it is first before posting a comment, also explain why you disagree. Also please refrain from posting any disrespectful/offensive comments, no trolls please. I've spent hundreds of hours in playing Destiny's Crucible. In many cases for me and many others shoulder charge can get extremely annoying at times especially when a Titan makes a sharp turn around a corner and shoulder charges you, when you run past a shoulder charger to avoid him but for some reason he can make a half turn to get you from behind, and very rarely but still irritating, when a Titan makes what is seemingly a 360 degree spin in the air to instantly kill you. I and many like minded players feel that shoulder charge is too powerful, especially since SC is extremely effective in close quarters, which most of Destiny's maps consist of mainly CQB areas. I'm NOT saying nerf SC to the point where its just as effective as normal melee, that would make it completely underwhelming and would make its only good use as a method of transportation. Shoulder Charge is a weapon, so it should be used as one, but it should not be more effective than regular guns, and sometimes shotguns in PVP. I believe that one of the aspects of SC that makes it too powerful is that you do not lose your "momentum" when you turn. I think that SC can be balanced by making it so that players that make a 45 degree or more turn will lose their SC momentum, this would make shoulder charge unable to be used to instantly kill someone around a corner. Another possible solution is to make it so that when a Titan gains SC momentum their ability to turn around is made "stiffer." These possible solutions would make shoulder charge not too powerful but strong enough to make players want to use it. Edit: I know that shotguns can be used to counter shoulder charge, I just think that Titans should not be able to make a sharp turn around a corner and instantly kill someone. Also, before I get loads of comments saying that I don't know what it's like to play as a Titan, I have, SC is ridiculous at times. Edit 2: People seem to be completely misinterpreting the point of the post, shoulder charge should remain a one hit kill, but your momentum should be lost if you make more than a 45 degree turn or turning with shoulder charge should be hindered. My reason for such suggestion is in the original post. Edit 5: A little tweak to the "45 degree" balance suggestion, when a Titan loses their SC momentum from turning 45 degrees or more they should be able to regain momentum after the SC charge time if they continue sprinting, a Titan will not have to stop and start sprinting again to regain their SC momentum.

  • No offense I'm not reading this. The title says enough. My main is a titan and I love my titan. I never use shoulder charge until I do crucible. Then I use the f out of it. And it's way op
