Why did Titans get shafted in HoW?

I just looked at the exotic armors that we'll be getting, and Titans don't seem to be getting anything particularly great. There's the whole "take a melee, dish out AOE" gauntlets, but that feels the slightest bit lackluster compared to the actually useful things that the other two classes got. The helmet just seems completely useless. I mean like damn, Hunters especially should be stomping everything after this update hits. Them invisibility gauntlets gonna do some work I'm sure.

    • Because Bungie loves their Warlocks and treat Titan's like hobo's since they are very much like Spartans.

    • Let me preface what I'm about to say by saying that I am very excited for HoW and a big fan of this game But... Titans got shit on. I get it, Helm of Saint14 was the best armor piece for titans and probably among all classes for vanilla and TDB. However, it looks like a lot of time and effort were spent on the warlock and hunter HoW exotics, and Titans got some lazy ideas. Defenders got nothing class specific. There was an opportunity here to give them a good pvp exotic and make Defender and WoD a competitive super. Why do we need ANOTHER pair of Shoulder Charge boots? MK44 Stand Asides suck. Are these things going to make our flying knee one-shot majors? If not they are pointless. Shoulder Charge is already a one hit kill in pvp against anyone minus Radianced locks Blade dancing hunters. Eternal Warrior should be a nice PvP option, but looking at it I think I'd rather have double lightning grenades still. Having both Unstoppable and Juggernaut could be fun though. Whatever you are charging at to FoH, is most likely getting FoHed. It has a really questionable design choice in the Killing Minions of Darkness gain you extra super energy perk though. Striker is just not as viable in PvE, and this Helm won't get it there. I like the area of effect reflect melee damage gloves. I am looking forward to trying them out in PoE. They really seem like they would shine in the abyss. My idea would have been to change the boots to make Ward of Dawn mobile for 5 seconds after activation. They could be called and read like this: Warmind MDUs Increase the amount of heavy ammo carried. Mobile Defense Unit - Ward of Dawn is mobile for a brief period after activation, or can be placed early by activating the super again. So rant aside, I will be looking forward to the hunt on Tuesday and remaining open minded and optimistic about the new titan gear.

      • I'm excited for my Titan exotics. The boots can let me kill a super up in the air. The helmet will help me in PvP and PvE to make those extremely dangerous FOH. Gauntlets will help me win those melee battles/CQC moments.

          • I don't know what will be the new exotics in HoW. BUT, I have all 3 classes 32 and almost every exotic armor for each. (Missing 1 gauntlets for Warlock and boots and 1 gauntlets for Hunter) I main my titan and, imho, titan have the best and largest choice of decent exotics until now, so I'm fine if we get less with HoW.

          • The gauntlets sound cool, and the helm looks badass, I'm honestly considering leveling up the Titan I made many many moons ago and forgot about

          • The helm will be good for pvp. The only way it will be stopped is by the new hunter helm and no one would use it. I believe Unstoppable is 600% damage reduction. The gauntlets and boots are all dependant on their damage.

          • Titans are already balanced. Hunters needed some more PvE perks and Warlocks just got some neat things. Titans have S14 and Armamentarium. If you notice there are mostly striker exotics as striker is more played in PvP than PvE. So Unstoppable and Shoulder Charge will help out with Agility and Survivability. Plus More damage when using shoulder charge in air could be overpowered against majors.
