[@xFlee]

Surprised one of them isn’t the Hazardous Propulsion build. It’s fun taking it to GMs and it does at least 1/3 to 1/2 health to a champion and hit it with a rocket launcher with the buff (35% with 6 stacks). Pro tip who wants to use it: Use Facet of Command, makes Two-Tailed Fox basically have 2 rounds in a mag since the first rocket suppresses and then it auto-reloads your weapons.

[@Doge-lb8dq]

I think they patched that recently

[@medicfdumbo]

@@Doge-lb8dq They only gave it a cd, so itll still reload, but go on a cooldown after. Prob not worth a fragment slot imo but it's there for funny builds like that.

[@xFlee]

@@medicfdumboimo even with the cooldown on it, I’m mainly using the fragment to nuke a champion one at a time anyways. If anything, you can use Facet of Dominance instead and use Truth or you’re already good void legendary rocket you might have.

[@bryanho7376]

1 more pro tip. If you’re using a light super, your class ability counts as light damage, meaning the fragment doing bonus light damage to targets affected by darkness defuffs work. This means 10% bonus dmg on a missile volley that already nukes. Best pairing I’ve found is to run drengr’s with rally barricade.

@@medicfdumbobe real, warlock grenades hit for like 40-80k, a wormgod consecration hits for 700k on bosses. Why would you be able to spam them as much as a grenade

[@mifoon8727]

The problem that I think even bungie has realized at this point is that when titans are at max un-nerfed power we either AOE entire rooms (prismatic consecration spam, hoil and touch of thunder storm grenade when arc 3.0 came out, etc. etc.) or we do so much damage in a small AOE that what ever we hit gets/almost gets insta-killed (peregrine greaves, banner of war synthoceps/worm gods solo one phasing dungeon bosses, etc. etc.) On top of that bungie also wants titans to be tanky, (and also slide for some reason but we’re not acknowledging that right now) so if titans live up the full fantasy we can crush whatever’s in front of us while taking a huge amount of damage straight to the face and keep going like nothing happened. Kind of a nightmare to design around. On the other hand when we do get nerfed titans are in a position where they’re struggling to stay relevant cause we don’t really bring anything else to the table. They actually nerfed bubble again and void over shields amount to the equivalent of paper mache in endgame content, and Titan doesn’t heal nearly as well as warlock can.

[@NecroAsphyxia]

This is why I think instead of just focused on damage Bungie should reshift and give Titans Utility and Crowd Control. Make titans best at debuffing. Let titans set enemies up easier. Let titans control the battlefield so that the squishy Warlocks and Hunters can clean up in safetys

I really enjoy using consecration on prismatic with syntho. But I wish we had some more options that were as potent. Prismatic Titan needs some big changes in aspects and or exotics to make this happen. I Also don’t mind synthos being the best overall melee exotic. But they need to give the specialty melee exotics that focus on one ability a big buff. I feel like they should edge out synthos in the respective abilities. That being said please don’t nerf synthos. Just carve a separate lane out for them.

[@Hazelomg]

hazardous propulsion

[@diegocj02]

The path is posible, and peregrine greaves are a great example. They arent the Jack of all trades that synthos is, but they do their specific job, which is nuking champions and minibosses, incredibly well. Sure, the playstyle could use some help in the form of DR, healing and activation requirement, but is a specialization: in the right situation is better than the all-rounder

Protip on Consecration: If you slide off a raised surface and activate your melee in the air (and the platform beneath you is not *too* far from your feet while airborne) you should see both waves appear on the lower ground, thus reliably getting the ignition off. I have made this change to stop my first wave shortstopping on the upper platform with much success!

I like how you present the situations and limits of each build. I get tired of seeing "the BEST BUILD EVER NUKES EVERYTHING"

I actually run an abeyant leap variation of the consecration build, it trades the power and self-healing of synthos and knockout for the extra protection of on-demand (and full 10 sec duration) woven mail and extra utility with suspends from drengr's lash, i ran it with a group in the glassway GM several times with great success since consecration can still dole out some ridiculous damage the more the enemies are bunched up for multiple ignites per melee

Both builds are essentially melee builds... titans just can't escape this melee pit bungie thrown them in and keep digging deeper while simultaneously throwing mud down that same hole.

you guys are the melee class, your are a specialist where the other classes are generalists, meaning you guys have the best melee versatility while the other classes can do melee, but normally only 1 or 2 melee builds, if you want to be a generalist, play the generalist classes, theres a reason Titans seem to be all about melee but hunters and warlocks don't seem to be all about 1 thing, that is by design, they are by design meant to be jack of all trades master of none, yes there are builds that make them masters, but with those 2 classes you HAVE to build into it, otherwise it WILL suck, titans, yall can just throw on anything and have a melee build, hunters? HAVE to use combination blow, HAVE to use liars handshake, HAVE to use stylish executioner, hunters don't have a choice, if they want to go melee, that is there option, hunters have 0 melee build variety, Titans have plenty of melee builds, that is what they specialize in

[@GiffyMcgee]

@@flamingscar5263 That's exactly the complaint. We want more than melee builds. Why should 1 of the 3 classes in the game be shoehorned into a restrictive build style when the other 2 classes have great build versatility? Titans SHOULD have to build into melee to make it powerful, and SHOULD have the ability to build into other things to roughly the same extent the other classes can. The type of content you can be effective in should not be even somewhat dependent on whether you play Hunter, Titan, or Warlock. This is especially true when you consider most of the playerbase primarily plays on one character.

Skullfort has pretty much been glued to my face for the last several years. That prismatic build pretty much carried me through the Legend campaign. (The one real difference is i used thruster and glacier nade.) With this setup you have so many "get out of jail free" cards. I renamed my melee button to "the problem solver" because i just push it and suddenly everything is fine. Either all the threats are dead, or it killed an add and now im back to full health. Thruster with the orb pickup mod is also great. If shit ever hits the fan when im knee deep in the danger, i push that button and suddenly my health is full.

Poor titans . Hay Datto, you should check out an Immost Light build with Caster Frame/Perfect Fifth Ergo Sum. it goes hard.

[@adummy9664]

I feel Drengr's Lash is highly slept on IMO since it gives you a pocket shutdown tool that lets you tell that Yellow Bar miniboss to take a seat, or to suspend a group of enemies from a safe distance before you move in on them. (If anything I feel like Knockout is kinda bait since that's what locking you into being so melee focused making you lose out on more utility and flexibility.) It covers those exact situations you mentioned where you get in a bad spot and need to bail yourself out especially if you run Rally Barricade so you have a short cooldown.

[@TheMD93]

As others have said, Hazardous Propulsion could easily fit in here as well. So many weapons get buffed by HP, including Rocket Sidearms, Buried Bloodline, Grand Overture, Eyes of Tomorrow... etc. Tons of options. Add in a Field Prep-Bipod Semiotician and you have a HUGE bit of DPS.

[@burgscratch6301]

Yeah, even Deathbringer gets buffed! Kinda neat.

[@No_Context_Thoughts]

Faith-Keeper from echoes gets ALH and Bipod, tracking rockets, only has 2 less rockets that siemotician with field prep, and surge stacks with Buried Bloodline. Just need a good darkness weapon for transcendence energy

[@Kezajaws01904]

Before I unlocked the exotic class item on Titan, I found myself really enjoying Drengr's Lash and Knockout with Abeyant Leap. Specifically with Thruster instead of Barricade. Put on a shackle grenade and you will have Woven Mail 80-90% of the time, and all the non-boss enemies are too busy trying to contact the mods to shoot at you anyway. It's so much fun to dodge out of a cluster of red bar enemies, then wind up a big Thunderclap and just decimate them all XD

[@hithere5553]

The only thing keeping me from shelving prismatic titan forever is the fact that Ergo Sum is in the energy slot and works with Stronghold. I wouldn’t touch this subclass with a 10 foot pole otherwise.

With consecration I like to use the call with the fragment that gives unraveling rounds on melee kills. Makes getting dark transcendence super easy

[@samgreen8007]

Okay, so, for the Thunderclap build, I workshopped my own fragment setup (the aspects are the same). I went Courage, Sacrifice, Protection, Bravery, and Purpose. -Knockout giver you Amplified, so I add Galvanic Armor as well, plus, when you become amplified, Sacrifice will help with darkness transcendence. -I specifically choose Bravery cause I crafted a "The Call" rocket sidearm with Desperate Measures. A melee will proc D.M. and Bravery, so it does more damage AND unravels targets, making follow-up melees stronger cause of Courage. The Call with Unravel and Diamond Lance make the darkness meter SHOOT up, and Thunderclap plus whatever good energy weapon you have does the rest - Mod out to your discretion. Happy hunting, Guardians!

[@EdenPorterMusic]

yall gotta be sleeping on hazardous propulsion with thruster, shield throw, and twilight arsenal, easily the best range titan has ever been able to have. Shines in high level stuff like GMs where you can’t spawn trap as well, the rockets come out wildly fast and do great damage on everything. Its main weakness is really just needing some help to generate dark energy for Transcendence.

[@bryanho7376]

I’m assuming you mean you aren’t loading missiles fast enough. It’s something not a lot of KZbin build vids mention. The best primary weapon I’ve found are 4 round pulses, or any automatic weapons. Some stand outs are any 4 round burst(Blast furnace, Belisarius, etc), Outbreak, Revision Zero(4 round burst), and grav lance. I’ve found SMGs to not be very good, alongside trace rifles and HMGs. Surprisingly, 180 hand-canons are solid. The fastest loading weapon is by far a rocket sidearm when hitting crits, especially buried bloodline. When using these weapons, it should guarantee a full volley every time you cast your class ability on tier 10 resil

[@josh60088]

Going for the throat on this one..if Prismatic Titans are in a good state then why did you switch off to another class during Salvations Edge Contest mode? Were you only able to touch the tip... of that Bladefury super against the Witness?

[@fieryflame6676]

They’re in a good state, they just need more build diversity. People swapped because if you made it to the final encounter, chances are that you’re not an idiot and are going to use the one thing in the game which was overtuned especially for the one encounter. This doesn’t make titans bad or hunters better, it just means that there was one nuanced place in which hunters dominated. Imagine if the witness didn’t have a crit spot, this would be different. Still hunt hunter builds are less effective than others outside of a raid encounter with precision dps and so is actually a niche. And so the niche fulfilled a specific nuance. Likely titans will be able to out dps all 3 classes (with the right class item role) all while keeping their insane nuetral game, (assuming wild hunt gets nerfed).

[@josh60088]

@fieryflame6676 Hunters have Still Hunt and Warlocks have Euphony, there is not a weapon currently that synergizes with the class. Aside from more buildcrafting options we need weapon profiencies bonuses for each class and a new heavy weapon like a multi-shot, slower firing rate, machine gun such as Autocannon sub-family.

[@fieryflame6676]

​@@josh60088 Still hunt will get nerfed, and imo euphany isn't that good technically. Star eaters+eternal warrior on your exotic class item outmaches their dps (since u can run x4 surge and a x3 surge for two elements or holsters). You also don't need to even pickup orbs (or have armor mods setup) to get the 30 SECOND LONG x4 surge for ease of use. Titans have good dps, probably the best dps on targets without crits. If you want more ease of use, the rocket chestplate does solid dps itself and also buffs wolfpacks aswell as rockets with 10% more damage than surges ever would. Using this logic you can also use another element type from your rocket with max surges. I think what you're asking for is a brain dead weapon comparable to euphany and still hunt that uses special ammo instead of heavy, you don't have this however, the heavy damage increase is close enough to make up for this if you pair with something like izi, cloudstrike or still hunt. (After still hunt nerf this will be the case)

[@josh60088]

@fieryflame6676 Why does anything need to be nerfed? Let Hunters have their power fantasy..this logic is ridiculous..nerf one thing so it doesn't outshadow other dps options for the rest of the other classes. Star eaters+eternal warrior is a rng specific situation, unless you grinded and don't have it then players are out of luck. Having a weapon with multiple barrels doesn't make it brain dead, that's what cerberus+1 is, it's unique..not everything needs to be precision to do damage. Hazardous Propulsion is prolly the only saving grace for Titans but there is not a weapon to pair with it that is on the same field as Celestial Nighthawk is for Still Hunters. It's also for very specific situations and if it were then folks like Datto wouldn't have needed to switch off Titan during Contest mode. Add more...don't take away from the experience.

[@fieryflame6676]

@@josh60088 I agree with the sentiment and using wild hunt in damage rotations on the witness is the most fun i've had gameplay wise in ages. But overall wild hunt is probably too effective at what it does, and for the sake of power creep and the health of the game I can see why they would change it. It's easier to nerf one thing than bring everything up to that standard, so it is logical. The reason there is nothing on the level of wild hunt dps is because there shouldn't be, one celestial shot of it deals 2.5x times more than the damage of an izi shot, this is insane power creep. Titans are much better than hunters at dealing with targets with no crits due to their exotic chest, class item and rockets, and so also having a precision damage option on around the same level as hunter's will be (after nerf hopefully) is justified imo. Also the reason you didn't see as many warlocks go hunter in day one, is probably because of how broken their healing nades are (especially with the helmet).

[@trainershade1937]

Titan has non-melee builds, good ones at that (at least when it comes to what you can get done with aspects+fragments). I'd say the biggest thing holding Titan back is exotics, as they admittedly don't have much that lets them directly play into their good non-melee capabilities. I'd also say that Prismatic Titan could do with a better all-round aspect. I personally think Roaring Flames could easily fit into the kit and be super desirable (as it would likely lose its solar only restriction). Frankly, the only Prismatic subclass that I think doesn't need anything, is Warlock.

Very fun freeze everything and i use my super just for my gun. Tons of shield from the stuff i pick up and the gernade void shield for those sticky situations.

[@EatsUsedTP]

The skullfort build is balls to the walls fun, it also served well in contest mode with all the orange psions

[@DjentyB]

I recommend Skullfort with triple Heavy Handed and Still Hunt, infinite Golden Gun shots with how many orbs you generate

[@batwing5808]

Hell yea Datto, looking forward to the lock and hunter builds king.

[@patman3514]

"For me I am really picky when to use my Consecration".....consencrates a box 2 minutes later :D

[@vindeta360]

These builds are good. But super situational. And require team mates cordination. Trying to LFG with Blueberries on an aggressive consecration build in a GM is utterly impossible :(

[@Leadbraw]

just use aeons or hazardous propulsion or hoil or etc.

[@ItsInigma]

At least the arc melee one was unique. Consecration is strong but so one dimensional. I really think Titans could be crazy good with Fusion Grenades. That with the fusion nade exotic, or even frenzied blade aspect with HOIL class item could be really nice. They just gave a bad combination of stuff

[@cluosion]

I know prismatic Titan is strugglin when my first thought of a build on day 1 (skullfort thunderclap) is one of the two builds datto makes. Also after using it a while it’s a pretty shit build since skullfort is still bugged where some conditions negate the refund melee. For example if you hit a stasis crystal and the explosion of it kills something, sometimes it doesn’t count, if you melee the weirdo enemies in each race, exploder shanks, fanatics, cursed thrall, etc it won’t refund melee most of the time. Sometimes if you melee a big group and kill like 10, if one of those 10 was a cursed thrall or other race equivalent it negates the melee refund altogether. If you melee charge and any knock up/back ability hits you it instantly forces you to release the melee. There are also some enemies that just don’t give melee refunds intermittently, like red bar shanks sometimes just don’t count and now ur down a melee charge. Also if he didn’t mention it, there is an armor mod that gives you armor charge upon pickin up an orb, and then another mod that gives you melee energy on finisher with 2 armor charges which imo makes it a lot better since you can lose ur melee charge to bullshit all the time

[@Shikidiky]

Imo for the thunderclap build glacier grenade is significantly better for dmg and utility over shackle

[@subzeroquasar1384]

Personally I’ve been loving a void weakness titan build using the shield throw exotic arms, weakening grenades, and deterministic chaos.

[@sundays35]

Can you add some commentary on what exotic class items would go good with these builds?

[@asystematec]

3:32 for some reason, I always enjoy hearing people in videos mispronounce words, in this case “hedge-moany” 😄

[@MrJZ367]

Has Datto forgotten that Monte Carlo exists? That makes it a lot easier to use Point Contact as your Exotic since your Monte Carlo is helping you keep your melee energy up, plus it's already good Exotic weapon damage is increased by your melee kills anyway.

[@life-destiny1196]

One you missed is the Drengr's Lash/Diamond Lance/Hazardous Propulsion build that I've seen a few players solo GMs on (if you're looking for VODs, I know there are Glassway clears on youtube by Tommy, Keer Plays, Redizah, and Suutekk at the very least, and maybe others I'm not aware of, all using that basic setup). I wouldn't take it into a raid or casual content as-is, but it offers control and champion deletion that's going to be a lot safer than trying to Consecrate your way through a GM--not that that also hasn't been done (by some of the same people, even), but I don't want to recommend something that'll get you kicked from LFGs haha

[@DarthGrimace69]

I run TC with knock out, and diamond lance, pair that with red death and the call work pretty good for me most activities. Still feel the difference from the other classes though

[@AaronFrance]

I love seeing new Datto content and I'm definitely on the side of "perennially optimistic" Destiny players but when even Datto can't build something interesting or unique with Prismatic, what hope do the rest of us have?

[@drfeelgood321]

How come no one is talking about two tail fox FINALLY gives titans a good distance load out

[@Michael-ne2bl]

That fragment got nerfed so the build doesn't work anymore and even before the nerf it was a mid damage rotation compared to EuphonyLock or HuntHawk

[@ZPUTSAM]

Also the surges are bugged on it

[@flopre9213]

two tailed is mid

[@holopaste]

Next elitist Datto’s very specific exotic class item and raid exotic build

[@justachad6494]

Syntho+Knockout+Consecration...or the build I ran throughout the campaign. Yay.

[@mohbius2]

Is synthoceps still not just better than point contact? More damage and makes your super usable

[@Savage-Destiny]

Everyone is sleeping on Hoarfrost and Glacier Grenade for Dark Transcendence Energy. A bit less CC than Suspend, but it can get you up to your entire Darkness bar in just 1 grenade shattering in a group of enemies. See my build video for a demo of it if you doubt.

[@FettuccineAllaGay]

people waaaaay over value majority of the Exotic Class Item rolls

[@patrickarraes4422]

I find it hilarious that bungie saw that hunters needed a range super instead of just solar and void, then gave a new super for arc as well. For titans, its just melee super and horrible synergies. Titans need a rework asap, new super and good range melee options

[@trilligy1807]

WAITER WAITER, ANOTHER TRIPLE CONSECRATION BUILD PLEASE😁😁😁😁😁😁🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

[@johnys.f.3751]

Titans have peregrine greaves Hunters have combination blow x3 + liars handshake What do warlocks have thats op for champion clearing?(No hate just curious)

[@mjHushpuppy]

How long do you think they'll tie exotic class items to the mission? At some point I assume they'll have to move it

[@eartharrow6772]

Got Baldurs Gate 3 on sale i will buy prismatic when its a tenner

[@The_Gravemind]

😎

[@fallguy6196]

All they have to do to make titan better and more usable than just a melee class is give titans the ability to buff weapons types. Easy make them have a huge buff when using machine guns or auto rifles. Give something for using weapons that would help the team

[@crithon]

very helpful

[@dj_mcfuggernugs507]

Facet of Blessing and Knockout allows you to punch Screebs

[@justaguybeingadude9314]

God I just want a prismatic build that doesn’t involve consecration but it’s the only powerful thing on Titan rn 😞

[@Kizzster]

Peregrine greaves or Consecration in GM smacks

[@gothiclb]

It's not that Titan is bad or weak, because in a vacuum it's very good. Titan just severely lacks interesting build options. Every Titan build is Melee Exotic + Monte Carlo and it feels the exact same to play regardless of subclass. Hunters and Warlocks have tons of strong builds that feel so different to play. Sunbracers plays different from Contraverse. Nighthawk plays different from Lucky Pants. Every single titan build is just spam melee, spam melee, spam more melees.

[@Menace7837-c4j]

wow datto. these 2 builds are definitely very UNIQUE. no one would EVER run this if it wasn't for you. it's quite a MIRACLE that no other youtuber has made these EXACT BUILDS. titans suck man

[@danteish3re]

Was actually thinking about a skullfort build earlier

[@christwalken12]

Thank you, I’m not going through that grind 🙏🏻
