Why Isn't Evade on the Titan?

Seriously. I can't help but thinking this is how it went down at Bungie: [b]Class Design and Balance Lead:[/b] "Boy, judging from these statistics, Titans are the worst Crucible class. We need something to help balance things out. Let's start with Blink. Hmmm. Instead of giving it to the Titans, let's give them something more fitting to compensate; perhaps an evade of sorts. A commando roll..." [b]Titan Class Design and Balance Lead:[/b] "That sounds like an amazing idea. It would really give Titans the answer they need to Blink without upsetting people with the lore. This really is a step in the right direction in balancing the Crucible." [b]Hunter Class Design and Balance Lead:[/b] "But, wouldn't it be [I]super[/I] cool to give Hunters both Blink [I]and[/I] Evade? I think so." *roughly 50% of Bungie Employees agree, since they main Hunters* *the other 49% of Warlocks are too busy buffing their version of Blink to notice, and the remaining 1% of Titans cry as they realise their inevitable bitter defeat due to lack of numbers* Edit: I'm aware of a Titan Exotic which will provide an Evade whilst airborne. Whilst I'm extremely grateful something like this is finally happening the Titan still has it's disadvantages along with it: - Not in base Subclass - Must be airborne - Must use an Exotic armour piece Statistics: - Top 100 Players on PlayStation - 15 are Titans. - Top 100 Players on Xbox - 13 are Titans - KD by Class from highest to lowest - Hunter>Warlock>Titan - Crucible Average KD by Subclass from highest to lowest - Gunslinger>Bladedancer>Voidwalker>Sunsinger>Striker>Defender Sources: http://destinytracker.com/destiny/population http://destinytracker.com/destiny/leaderboards/ps http://destinytracker.com/destiny/leaderboards/xbox Edit: I tried looking at everyone's comment but I can't. My Notebook simply can't load up all the comments at once without freezing and is loading at a snails pace. I tried; I'm sorry. Edit: To everyone grasping straws with excuses like: - "Titan armour is too heavy" or - "Titans are tanks" I say this: 1. Titan armour isn't some primitive design with pieces of metal slapped on the Titan. This is the future. It's lightweight, Titans can still be flexible. And while it's probably heavier than what Hunters and Warlocks use, you have to remember Titans are a lot stronger to compensate for the additional weight. This is comparable to the Spartans in Halo, who also have Evade. And since we're talking about practicality, why should the Hunter get Evade? The cape would surely get it in the way. -_- 2. Titans are not the tanks and are more akin to a Warrior. They are the fastest class, can take good damage and are designed to be in your face. They are not the slowest, they are not the tankiest. And let's try and remember that armour makes very little difference in Crucible. Edit: "You aren't a real titan. Titans don't whine." A real Titan doesn't settle for anything less than the best.

  • Git gud m8. Don't be complaining when you have the best PVP subclass with Fist of Panic and Dick Charge and the best PVE subclass with Michael Bubble and Weapons. So shut up and stop complaining.

    • Because why should they? They're ot the fastest class, don't have the build for it and have you ever seen Thor roll into battle before he throws Mjolnir?

      • Evade is the only damn good thing about hunters pathetic bow in PVP, so it won't even matter since almost no sane people would use it in PVP.

        • Hunters have to use nightstalker to dodge roll. Titans can be a defender and still dodge roll at the cost of exotic armor slot. Hunters loose An upgraded radar or the ability to choose any subclass. I think titans kinda won.

            I'm gonna present to you a scenario with a question embedded in it, answer said question for me So imagine for a sec a tank on a battlefield, the tank is down there doing the job that a tank does, acting as a superior force against lighter targets or an opposing force against similar targets, all of the sudden this tank crews enemy sends an a-10 warthog Into the fight and this a-10 Lines up for a strafing run on the tank, it's gun spins up and gets ready to decimate the tank Does the tank them activate some super secret monstrous hydraulic system that launches it sideways and out of the way of all the gau-8 avengers bullets?

            • Real Titans take it on the chin than bash the guy's head in. Then they dance like Hammer on his crumpled carcass. You must be new.

            • Its most logical that a hunter would have evade. The titans are a tank that simply wouldn't work

                • Titans don't have more strength. Remember you are always the same person when you start the game. Some old uncommon armor even says "most of the Titans strength comes from field drivers within the plate..." Or something along those lines.
