Facing Antaeus in my first game today
Two titans on the other team were sliding around with shotguns and I murdered them with the Sweet Business. Sliding right at me, away from me, didn't matter I gunned them down. So I guess that means one of a few possibilities.
-They aren't the apocalypse that some folks seem to be wailing about
-I'm somehow a pvp god (Doubt it.)
-The Sweet Business is the one true OP.
I'm currently leaning on the third option, but will be willing to accept the first. We ended up losing that match due mainly to teammates not playing the obj, but it's quickplay control so it's to be expected. I did however win every single encounter with the Buttslide Brigade (Can we make that an official title?) The top scorer on their team was a Hunter rocking Hard Light and did some pretty good work with it. I usually traded with him, but would get the win about half of the time.

5 RespuestasAnything can destroy sweet business lol you just played against some cans. Though on a map like anomaly I doubt your sweet business "counter" would fly, as its just slide to win.
-
Its not that it cant be beat it's that people dont wanna work for it so they demand a nerf
-
They are honestly not that bad. .00098% of the player population knows how to use them properly annnnnd only in trials. I play regular crucible on console and ive seen them used maybe twice last week.
-
They need a buff tbh

1 RespuestaEditado por Sarah Rose: 5/11/2020 7:29:16 AMYou can counter Antaeus simply by moving back and creating distance. I know that's hard to do for the apes out there, but sometimes you gotta use your brain.
-
1 RespuestaYeah it's the only means of counterplay Titans have so naturally we should take it away.
-
4 RespuestasYou must be pretty narcissistic to believe if something doesn't affect you it shouldn't affect anyone. Maybe you had better intentions but wording came out wrong. We will go with that.. for now
-
8 RespuestasFour option: they don't know how to use them
-
1 RespuestaShhh don't make it public SB is secretly the new meta ;)

4 RespuestasEditado por michael: 5/10/2020 9:20:23 PMThe biggest problem with them is honestly the super regen. Dont get me wrong the actual damage reflecting is super annoying and broken but I guess you can counter it if you really go out of your way. What can’t be countered is the amount of super energy given for reflecting shots. Decent crucible players do a lot of sliding especially when they have boots that increase your slide distance. Put all of this together and you have people sliding maybe 20 or 30% of their time in every engagement. Which means for that much time you are invincible but more importantly for that much time you are getting a bunch of super energy. I played a trials game today and when it was 3-2 for us and none of us had supers and the titan on the other team had his. Guy only had tier 6 intellect and had a super while losing, when none of us were at more than 2/3. That is just not balanced, I don’t know how anyone can say that it is.

- option 4 : they were bad at using Anteus Wards effectivelly !
-
It’s not as op as the crybabies are saying
-
4 RespuestasYou killed someone with Antaeus Wards?! You’re a PvP god, bro! *bows down*

1 RespuestaThe only real problems with Wards are it's super regen, it's 360° shield that so far I've seen blocks EVERYTHING that hits it including a regular melee and punishes someone for doing what is in most cases the only thing they can do in response. I shot one the other day from the side, my Mountaintop reflected 90° to the left and killed a teammate, how does that make sense? If a titan gets within 20 meters, you're most likely going to lose. You shoot him, he slides at least 5 meters, sends those shots back at you, shoots you while he's shielded, now you've lost enough health that on his next slide he'll kill you with his shotgun. All that would need to be done to balance it is remove the super regen, make it a frontal shield to make people more selective in who they target, and reduce the size enough to be shot in the head to give the other person a fair chance to fight back if they're accurate enough. Even if it's only active for a second, a 5 second cool down on a near perfect super generating defense that makes life easy af for shotgun noobs and punishes someone for defending themselves and their teammates is bs. There's no real counter to it besides killing them before they get in range, indirect damage, and trap related weapons and abilities (Tripmine, Sticky Shots from weapons like Mountaintop).

Just don't use OHK weapons. Fast rate of fire and distance, they don't know what to do.
-
1 Respuestawhat bungie heard from that....nerf sweet business. got it.
-
Antaeus counters slide shotgunning as you pretty much get an inviniciblity shield vs someone else slide shotgunning As it counters the biggest crutch playstyle in the game (while also being said playstyle) it causes people to cry that its "op"
-
1 RespuestaI’ve only seen two or three titans use them. It was in one game too.
-
2 RespuestasPeople that complain about Wards cry about any and everything.
-
I just think it shouldn't work on supers. Like I'm fine you deflected my melee, but only arcstrider super should be able to deflect a Nova bomb.
-
33 RespuestasThey were just bots. Anyone with a functioning brain can use anteus

Editado por blade329: 5/11/2020 4:24:43 PMOh, it's so overblown. There are just too many snowflakes and pansies in PvP. They can't handle anything in this game, so they spend their time begging for nerfs of every kind. It's like watching a death march to a level playing field and the ruin of a loot based shooter. Trials players have been doing the same thing since it started in D1, and still expecting a different result. The very definition of insanity. It's hilarious.
-
2 RespuestasHandheld nova was never completely rampant either and now that's been nerfed into the ground so this should be to 😁
-
It’s not like you can just pop them on and be God tier instantly. They were probably just players jumping on the bandwagon. If they were using them properly, your time to kill would’ve been increased by roughly .5 seconds. They would’ve used that time they were blocking your shots to outgun you with their primary. That paired with the time to spin up Sweet Business, would’ve been a nightmare matchup against a player with a brain. I am glad to see you drifting away from what’s considered META though. Shotgun apes are the ones you will see the most with Antaeus, but the primary gunfights are where Antaeus Wards really give you an advantage.
-
Here, an extra point: -They were garbage ass players There. I think I'll go with that one.
