Let's do a social experiment..

Titan

1363

Hunter

1475

Warlock

1194

[b]Step One:[/b] Take the survey and pick your favorite Class, whatever your reason, just pick it. [b]Step Two:[/b] Post down below the Class you picked and the reasons it's your favorite. Easiest to use? Lore around them? Looks? Cookies? [b]Step Three:[/b] Tell us what you hate the most about the Class you picked. Try to pick something that doesn't make your Class look weak. [i]For example; I pick a Warlock but I hate Stormcallers and think they are cheap.[/i] [b]Bonus Step:[/b] If you feel up to it and aren't afraid of upsetting other Classes, state what you like most and least about the other two Classes. My goal is to see if people will be honest with themselves and hopefully bring out some good and [b]healthy[/b] debates. This isn't bait or anything like that. Shooting for something different compared to most posts I see on the forums. Edit 1: Wow 80+ comments!! You guys are awesome!! No salt or toxic either. I have hope again for the community. Edit 2: Just about 150 comments! Exciting to me consider this is my first post to get any notice =P Looks like Titans and Hunters are pretty popular and warlocks slightly behind. Overall all about the same though. Enjoying all the comments and stories on why you picked your class and your pros/cons. Keep them coming! Everyone has got their own reasons and people seem to really enjoy the topic!

  • Hunter: main since I began in vanilla. I love the perks on the subclasses especially the stealth aspect. It's my play style. Thing I dislike is the supers are kinda weak in pve and I mainly play pve.

      Titan because they are fun and my first main. I don't like that defenders don't get much offensive power. I don't like that hunters are seemingly designed for PvP more than pve (IMO). I don't like that warlocks have lazily designed skill trees that are very powerful

      I picked hunters because I love the whole idea of them. sneaky, precise, and the capes look awesome let's all admit it. they're great for pvp and especially Nighstalkers are amazing as a sort of backup in pve. the worst part about them is the fact that they're not good at handling big groups of enemies (and they aren't the best at up-close contact). also as far as their personalities are, I think they're a little too stand-offish to work well in groups unless it's absolutely necessary. plus as far as actual players go there are a few /select/ huntards that give us all a bad name which does suck and in general gives people assumptions that aren't usually true. TITANS: pros: bubble bros. plus I always imagine this little dynamic between hunters and titans where they're total bros and the hunter is the backup, always saving the titan from sticky situations, and the titan defends their less bullet-spongey hunter friends cons: can be jerks, testosterone filled. not very agile and kind of tanky (and no offense but in game I always see them as the dumber class, not STUPID per se, but not necessarily thinking ahead of the next thing they're gonna punch WARLOCKS: pros: space magic, (*cough* bluewestlo *cough*), cool robes, really smart. plus you get that sick nova bomb. cons: stuck up (again, in game I imagine them to be like this), not very strong, which is why they rely on their space magic. and as far as pvp goes I s2g I get butt shot more by warlocks than anyone else

      Hunter. Great jumps fun supers. Terrible grenade choices on Gunslinger. Titans love the shoulder charge and grenade choices. Terrible Agility. Warlock Great at close range or mid range melee combat. Terrible stamina and jump based on momentum.

    • Hunter. I chose it because it fit my play style the best. it is my first and still my main character. I dislike that it keeps getting nerfed into oblivion rather than boosting the other classes to compete. as for warlock, I love the melee range and effects on everything but stormcaller. I hate stormcallers trance, it doesn't fit with the character archetype very well. and that skanky ass jump... for titan, I love the jump. although I think it goes far too high for the class type. it's understandable with fist of havoc but neither of the other two. I hate the hammers. it's a super spammy golden gun with guaranteed kill within it's radius, and you get up to 7 tosses which is broke as shit. low risk, high reward.

      • The poll outcome is as expected: Hunter mains: make up a majority of players because of capes and good pvp supers Titan mains: there's a lot because they're true guardians and important for raids with bubble Warlock mains (like myself): meh, we have robes and space magic

        • 1. Hunter 2. Has a super that can stop other supers and has the best characters like Cayde and Dredgen Yor. 3. You throw your melee ability and can easily try to knife someone but they die and your smoke/throwing knife gets used on accident

        • Warlock is my main, because it's freaking space magic. I've always been a fan of being able to use magic since the early Fable days. What I don't like is the jump. I love glide, but it's soooo slow. Honestly, I play all three classes and like elements of all of them at times depending on how I feel like playing that day.....but I'll always be a warlock.

        • I chose a titan from beta bcuz i thought hunters only used snipers but titans are just basic asf which I really liked bcuz they had no extra dumbshit about them just run and gun although I wish we had better options when it comes to melee choices and I really enjoy the lore around them especially about that Titan that headbutted a Kell and another one a few more that I can't really remember also I like hunters alot to bcuz of you know capes and their like ninjas lol idk and warlocks are just fun and pretty easy to use tbh [spoiler]the end[/spoiler]

        • Titan. Super quick and easy for me to escape bad spots with Titan skate. Each subclass is useful for different situations. I don't like the melee range. Sometimes I lunge really far, and sometimes I can't hit somebody a foot away from me. Hunter subclass is second favorite because of the bladedancer subclass (I love using it) and because of the agility. I f[b]u[/b]cking hate warlock movement. The glide is so bad imo. It's only worth using blink.

        • I picked Warlock. I played it originally because my clan didn't have a warlock, and I just grew most comfortable with it. I hate killing myself (or almost killing myself) with my own Nova Bomb. Hunter: Like-Golden gun is so fun to use imo, easily one shotting someone. Dislike-All the grenades. All 9. I find myself not using any grenades while running Hunter.(That could be why I suck with them.) Titan: Like-That feeling when you shoulder charge the top person on the enemy team. Just the sound it makes, and watching their body go flying. Dislike-Being suppressed right after initiating a roaming super.

          • I love hunters for their versatility. While Titans have 3 different punches and warlocks 3 different palms, hunters have a variety of melee abilities. Throwing knives, smoke bombs, and blink strikes. These 3 melees offer variety and each have a different play style to utilize. And while Titans regardless of class seem very aggressive and up close and personal, warlocks tend to use some range for supers and the like (More so than Titans at least), hunters are to me at least the wild cards of the classes able to be the most unpredictable and adaptable to any situation. That being said I do not like how some of the abilities seem to need more skill than other classes. What is meant by that is if you are a Titan or warlock if you miss your target with a punch or palm it doesn't waste the charge and you can proceed to punch or Palm again. Hunters however if they miss their throwing knife or smoke bomb they loose the charge and while sometimes it's okay to miss a smoke bomb because of the AOE on the smoke especially if poisoned, but the throwing knife miss is a disappointment especially if you didn't mean to hit the button and now have to wait for a new knife. ( even with the 2 charge perk it's annoying) also on the subjects of knives and smoke bombs if you are slightly out of range (something you can't really know) you use the knife or smoke bomb and waste the charge where a normal melee would have sufficed. Also the supers for hunters seem a bit underwhelming in relation to other classes. While sure blade dancer is great in crucible it can't be used against raid or strike bosses where all the Titan and warlock abilities can be used somewhat effectively (blade dancer sucks cause bosses all have a ground pound now a days) and golden gun gets 3 shots which is good in crucible if you can hit them but if you miss you wasted the shots also if you get sniped. Also if you used celestial knighthawk in strikes (1 shot with golden gun for 6x damage) you had better not miss and while it will take down any ultra in one hit it does about 1/8 of bosses health on a good day. Shadowshot is good for shutting down supers and if you hit someone it's a kill but aiming has a learning curve and it's not going to get you really any kills in strikes through it can be good support against hoards it's not really made for bosses. Hunter supers aren't really made for multi kills unless you use blade dancer and while that's okay, it's disheartening to play crucible and work hard to get a streak only to have a Titan use striker on a control zone and get 4-5+ kills or a warlock nova bomb and do the same instant. All that being said I love my hunter and they are fun to play! I think the best thing ascetics wise for hunter is that they are thin and streamlined. Titans are too bulky and square for my taste (I play a female Titan cause I like the shape better, they are too barrel chested and I hate the square shoulder pads some of them have) and same with warlock males they seem to have a barrel chest under their robes (which is why I chose a female body type as well) also as much flack as I get about the capes I love them the best cause they are the most pronounced and easy to identify its hard to see the bands sometimes and the Titan butt flaps are just not to my liking. That being said I love each class I have on of each (sunsinger warlock, and striker Titan) and play them mainly for fun with friends. But hunters are and will always be my babies.

          • I pick warlock. I love the warlocks because of their story, they are great masters of knowledge and harness their intelligence as a deadly force, Titans would come second in their story. I don't like the fact that the nova subclass has almost no use in a raid. I think my least favorite thing about the hunters is their unprofessional attitude, cayde six kind of annoys me in some ways because he should take his job more seriously and treat some with respect but honestly some hunters are jerks

          • Most liked: Titan Why: I enjoy the uniqueness of the defensive super as well as skating for speed. The jumps feel very solid unlike hunter(which was my 1st character) Drawbacks: sometimes very slow in turns, the straight speed is good though Most unlinked: Hunter Why: Jumps not as fun and don't feel solid. Builds got boring quickly and were redundant. Likes: Nostalgia about beating VOG hard mode for the first time as a hunter. Really enjoyed hunter at first it just didn't hold my interests long.
