So many years Titans didnt get any game changing abilities or builds or at least good utility without nerfing to useless state Main complain is there is no reason to take titan instead of warlock or hunter in any activity harder or equal to normal raid (except RON it very easy). Been playing Destiny 2 since Forsaken came out my main is Titan First i go for subclasses breakdown: Arc: melee ult + thundercrush which forces u to take on exotic just to be at least useful with it (atrax tactic with 6 TC titans is no more cuz of warlock can go novabomb with stareater scales on exotic class item) TC cant be used on more than half bosses (oryx, witness blah blah) and if its used u have to run back and lose weapon DPS resulting sometimes in damage loss compare not to use any ult On arc u got one loop - hold (only one usable melee in PVE) thunderclap throw a grenade or grenade first - done. Thats all... Solar: 2 long time use ults mostly for ad clear (or use pyrogale for oh boy oh boy another melee oneuse ulti) Was playing solar mainly before "heart of inmost light" became top tier on arc and after this exotic was nerfed alongside titan arc subclass. On solar at least u got more than one melee with throwing hammer plus good survivability (no build is good without sol invictus tho.... prove me wrong) Void: 3 ults now yaaay Sentinel shield (another melee ult) is usable only with "Doomfang" with aspect "offensive bulwark" Ward of Dawn was useless since Well of radiance appeared (5 years i guess?) and they nerfed it to the ground in the only activity it was good - PVP control New Ult Twilight arsenal (3axes) THE ONLY single use ranged damage super in titan kit and its mid (in damage terms).... Void subclass as a whole is good only with controlled demolition aspect. Void overshield has 65hp and 50% DR wich is equivalent to... well... 2 shots from minotaur or 1 shot from wyvern. Shield gain speed about 75% speed from warlock healing rift. With this information think about this - ward of dawn (Bubble) had its own overshield before nerf triple as good than void overshield it provides now. Stasis another melee super and is a joke... As a whole its useless and i know there will be some folks with "good Hoarfrost Z builds" but hunter and warlok can do same tthing but better a lot better. Glacial quake is used only on riven or edge of action glaive bubble Strand was good before nefrs and yep it has another melee long time super. It was second good build for titan in GMs because of utility Abeyant leap provided - almost free Woven mail for everyone for 10 seconds with good crowd control. Now Woven mail is nerfed for 5 seconds and titan cant live in Bungie power fantasy because almost everything titan got in Strand subclass again MELEE But flechette storm is not melee! Show me that smart man or woman who jumps into air stay stationary to throw all ur charge and not die in GM Into the fray aspect got nerfs alongside with woven mail Only useful aspect is banner of war but with woven mail last 5 sec i wont take strand anymore into gms Now we got PRISMATIC where THE ONLY GOOD (better say combo) BUILD is knockout + consecration New void aspect is funny but again its melle based thing without any utility for the team + its so weak so u gonna be killed if used for offence, tested... Void overshield was so bad that ads from second encounter from salvations edge dealt with it in seconds. Use aspect grenade and risk for ur life just to do what a supressor grenade can... Now exotics An insurmountable Skullfort - melee for content normal raids or less Mask of the quiet one - useless Khepri's horn - useless except it presence on a class item (though more of a gimmick) and yes its not properly working wave sometimes wont come back does anyone care? Helm of Saint-14 - nerfed and only use with a useless glaive Eternal warrior - useless (gives 25% damage buff to a single damage type after an ulti. 3 surges in legs gives 22% without needing to spend ult and choose ult corresponding to ur weapons affinity) One-Eyed Mask - PVP Precious Scars - only good on class item, as a standalone exotic - useless Loreley Splendor Helm - Nerfed. Solo dungeon life save exotic otherwise useless (only use when literally anything else is cant be used) Cadmus Ridge Lancecap - useless gimmick ACD/0 Feedback Fence - melee PVP Doom Fang Pauldron - melee with an ult for AD heavy enviroment but warlock or hunter can clear a room faster than u get kills to refund ult Synthoceps - melee + got nerfed Aeon Safe - every class got it Ashen Wake - useless, maybe a PVP gimmick Wormgod Caress - melee ultra mega hype good exotic wich cant be used properly by half of D2 players Ursa Furiosa - was essential in season of opulence and since then useless Stronghold - First good exotic that changes a way to play Citans Ramparts - nerfed to the ground and almost useless Icefall Mantle - makes ur titan build in mobility LOL trash (u cant run or jump) No Backup Plans - melee kinda gimmick shotgun build better use "Haz Prop" Second Chance - use literally any weapon with artifact barrier mod or wishender/arbalest - naah (again melee trash) Point-Contact Cannon Brace - melee gimmick works like An insurmountable Skullfort but only with thunderclap Pyrogale - melee for single use burning maul (trashed in vault after Star eater scales on class item) Wishful Ignorance - yet another gimmick melee trash Crest of Alpha lupi - used only for orb creation for weekly challenge Actium war rig - used with 3 weapons Sweet business (powercrept by necrochasm) tommys matchbook if u tired of reloading and retrofit escapade (its useless now) exotic useless now Hallowfire heart - we got heart of inmost light at home type (its a lot worse) Armamentarium - PVP only but powercrept with exotic class item (useless) for the record: arc got aspect for 2 nades and this ex doesnt work so only use with void Heart of inmost light - second really good exotic even after its nerfs Severance Enclosure - another useless melee gimmick (same as scars state, only good on class item) Cuirass of the falling star - was created just to be created so titans cant have damage and a good exotic Hoarfrost-Z - the only good exotic for useless stasis F Arbor Warden - PVP for fun gimmick (u ll dismantle it after 1-10 matches) Hazardous Propulsion - Third GOOD exotic and second that changes playstyle Lion Rampant - every class got this one like aeons Peacekeepers - PVP SMG only Dunemarchers - PVP Mk. 44 Stand Asides - trash Antaeus Wards - most of the time not working PVP exotic Peregrine Greaves - another melee exotic... Ha ha try to get to a champ in GM activity or just teamkill it with gjally... Phoenix Cradle - second utility for team exotic but a ton better than precious scars (this actually good but u can create sunspots in place only by casting super) The Path of Burning steps - nerfed and useless Abeyant leap - good but with 5sec woven mail not worth And for the builds... Hunter got the best melle build with liars handshake and even better with it on class item with syntos Maybe support role? Nah warlocks got healing turret with x2 restoration 20sec uptime and can be infinite if built correctly Add clear? Nope... sunbracers, necrotic grips, liars handshake, gyrfalcons hauberk, triple turret warlock etc... Boss damage? well... u ll find videos with 8mil damage hunter in a single damage phase on witness What titan have? Only 3 consecrations in prismatic which came with Solar 3.0 not with prismatic so its old thing but can be used 3 times No good single use damage supers from distance No Utility use for team or its so little so its not worth it others good things got NERFED Only 3 good exotics to use in endgame and less than 5 builds maybe even less that 2-3 builds will work. U can browse me on raid report and dungeon report im not a casual PVE player. Pk#0816 But for now the only play in hard content for titan is "Hazardous propulsion" with Thruster or class item with "Spirit of inmost light" + "Spirit of Star eater" Quote "if its not working in GM difficulty its bad" I wont argue about build crafting but 90% of builds for titan is around melle and Hunters can do it better RIP bonk titan Hail strand grapple titan! Oh wait hunters do it better... This class need a complete rework or reimagine About half of the titan exotics have damage buff for kills because otherwise they will be compeletly useless. You wont see so much of this on warlock or hunter exotics. Just look for yourself And as a conclusion: no reason to take any subclass except prismatic for any activity and maybe solar or strand banner of war for solo dungeons because our toolkit so little it fits in all prismatic.
