Nova bomb is also a projectile so you don't even need to be close to deal it's damage. Not sure why it is allowed to be so strong but thundercrash isn't.

A projectile that travels slow as shit and is an entire bomb! With the fact that it can damage you. Big deal it's a thrown projectile while I can use it in close quaters or a far. Void is the strongest element in the game and lore wise! It's like throwing friezas death ball vs flying directly into something. Gee common sense would say that a bomb of raw energey should deal way more damage. While thundercrash you can get insanely fast due to combos I've listed as well as the perk granting super energy in itself. It's never been made to be a high dps super as its focus is ads. You want dps that's what burning maul is for! Even then that's not the titan focus. Thundercrash travles fast as shit you launch yourself and if you use it smart since Enemies all have a stagger to them use thundercrash once it's been stagered and guess what you won't take damage except for shit shooting you at the time. Then ballistic slam or simply Punch melee so you don't get knocked back and run away. Problem solved.
