The best piece of advice I can offer is to play all classes every week. I've been playing since day one and every week I play all classes while doing the weekly Shaxx bounties. Playing all classes gives you better insight into the strengths and weaknesses of each class and makes dying to those classes a lot less painful. Blink strike, shoulder charge, crazy warlock melee range and fusion nades are a lot easier to shrug off when you've walked a mile in those shoes. It's a lot easier to commend your opponent when you've been on both sides of the tactics they're using.
Do yourself a favor and shoulder charge the crap out of people on your titan. Clutch a trials round with your Blade Dancer, melee people in the next star system with your Warlock. Play all the classes and get to know each one. You'll be a better guardian for it. Just some food for thought :)

This doesn't eliminate the lag which is where 90% of my frustration comes from

Thanks for the tip! I think I see it being true. When I started actually using my warlock I got less angry when people cross map .... punched me with electricity but not really punch. What is it called????

I keep switching game modes from 3s and 6s and I keep getting matched against the same laggers! I won't name them but the SBMM SUCKS.

5 RepliesI used to tell My head off about shoulder charge and then I used it myself.

4 RepliesStep one don't go into trials with guys that are .3 k/d I make that mistake constantly. Step 2 once you find 2 other decent players keep playing with them every week. Step 3 profit. I'm still working on step 2.

50% guarantee for less frustration in crucible now that hunters had to hand in their cheat skills to the nerflords. Titan has and always will be #1!

I play all 9 subclasses myself. Shoulder charge is definitely too good after it got registration buffed. Blink strike needs to be unnerfed from way back whenever. And, lightning grenades need to be fixed in various ways.

20 RepliesThe way I reduce my frustration is simple. 1. I play for fun 2. I don't care about everybody else 3. I play with whatever load outs I want to play with 4. I play for fun 5. I bring the scrubbiest loadouts for fun 6. I play for fun 7. I go in to piss everybody else off because its fun 8. I play thinking I paid the same as everybody else so use whatever I want to use

2 RepliesOr you could try using a head set and some team tactics and NOT get your ass handed to you!

3 RepliesFamous Birds over at Crucible Radio has been doing something similar. He plays a different class and subclass each day. He also is going through all his weapons exploring unused combos. I think they will be releasing a chart soon to help us mix things up as well.

1 ReplyI'm suing for false advertisement, you didn't even address lag! So disappointed. Lol

1 ReplyYeah, when you are playing on LAN. But when you are playing on internet, then: ask your neighbour if you can use his wi-fi ;)

Better advice would be to play a new game

5 RepliesI tried. Didn't work. Throwing knife still sucks.

Didn't decrease my frustration one bit. Then again [i]all[/i] my frustration is based on the damned ridiculous lag.

1 ReplyIn my opinion, the issue for many is not that there are class differences and different play styles but the connection issues. For instance, seeing a red bar player get a 5.0 kd and tbag then you see their kd is .8 overall. You get into a new match and they don't red bar, they get a .5 kd and they send you hate mail because you tbagged them.

So how do you counter the lag class?

2 RepliesLOL.... Here is a tip... Get a God-roll Grasp of Malok and wreck mofos in Crucible...lol :) I am kinda being facetious, but not really...lol

I should do this for the shaxx bounties. My poor warlock doesn't have a single max subclass

Edited by More Cowbell: 8/30/2016 7:38:31 PMI would rather there be a way to increase my enjoyment of the crucible. Sadly, there is not. That said, I choose to reduce my crucible frustration by 100%. I'm sure that method has been mentioned more than once below.

37 RepliesOnly class i refuse to play as in PvP is the crutch class that is the hunter. Easiest supers to get kills with. One hit kill with 3-4 shots, OP shield while using BD and a super that can cancel out other supers whiles holding people in place with multiple shots again.
