Void Titan, better AND worse than you remember Destiny 2

Here we gooooooooo!

[@lancebaggaley9433]

To be frank I think they could fix the melee part by having some sort of melee bonus with melee weapons. It wouldn’t be the first time they did a weapon sync for Titans and it would be cool to see it come back in some way.

[@lancebaggaley9433]

Also I think that a titan with high strength should just hit harder than the other classes. It’s just logic

[@PocketTuna]

I agree

[@Chef740]

I think adding the option to place sentinel shield down (similar to the barricade animation)could improve the super a lot. You would have the option to make it a one off that everyone can shoot through and would now be a viable option for dps since it would be a higher damage buff then well. It would give the super the option of having the mobility while blocking or committing to a single spot for dps

[@PocketTuna]

Been hearing this a lot I think Bungie should implement somehting like this.

[@optumis1433]

One thing I wish they add to the Sentinel was a 3rd super, and I have an idea for it. It would be a burst super where the titan shoots a projectile out of the shield, similar to the Aegis from VoG. Not only would that give titans another ranged super, but it would match the number of supers that void hunters and warlocks have

[@PocketTuna]

Dear God, I like the way you think lol So good

[@MaddixCuhming]

So throw bigger shield

[@somebody7205]

I thought about a one and done void titan super: drop the commander sentinel shield to the ground and make it a stationery oversized barricade and keep the dmg buff (or lower it a bit to minimum 30%) and so well still has the benefit of the healing but sentinel will again be the better buffer now just with a risk because the shield only blocks dmg from one way and if adds swarm you it's distracting. This will give titans a start for a variety in raids because of some raids plate mechanics you can't leave the dps area unless you want to do 10 times less dmg or no dmg at all For pvp sure a big buff is strong but it is only to one direction if you shoot through it unlike well so even if you see a void titan in pvp they will probably still rock bubble or roaming

[@PocketTuna]

If this was an exotic I would use it lmao

[@somebody7205]

@Pocket Tuna yeah an exotic is probably the better balancing option. I was day dreaming way to much about this super with Ursa

[@PocketTuna]

@@somebody7205 You and me both brother

[@sheepshank808]

Literally been dreaming of something like this for a while. Would be a game changer for Sentinal and give titan’s more support viability

[@cowboyoism]

titan isn't the only one who lost a significant amount of things with the 3.0 subclasses for no reason other than design choice. specifically with void hunter combat provisions AND heart of the pack were both removed leaving the classes main ability to weaken things with a melee and spam Invis which is not good in Pve when you could simply destroy every enemy with a grenade spam build on titan and warlock. titan has arguably one of the strongest neutral games among all subclasses and classes, they have access to the most unique ability kits. Roaming jolt grenades, knockout, volitille abilities (that heal you) very very high uptime on overshields, bonus damage to abilities, sunspots, roaring flames. Things may feel samey with arc, stasis and now strand but you can't ignore how strong the neutral game abilities are. I agree that they shouldn't copy/paste the same subclass kit 3 times in a row but void and solar at both insane respectively. stasis as a whole isn't needed when you can kill everything outright and strand more than likely will only be used by hunters.

[@painlessplate58]

The arc titan is probably the worst in the power fantasy compared to the solar and void, its just punch punch and the occasional thundercrash

[@PocketTuna]

Yeah I have some thoughts on that. For example there’s no reason to really run ballistic slam anymore unless you’re going for the cheese one hit in PVP with synthoceps or dunemarchers

[@painlessplate58]

​@@PocketTuna the arc titan should be like a fast wild berserker

[@Vinn0]

To be fair towards Bungie having ability Regen on volatile explosions would have broken the game even more considering how available volatile rounds was in season 16 due to volatile flow + the infinite volatile bug that happened with very high DPS void weapons was already a thing in season of the hounted.

[@PocketTuna]

Oh yeah 100% lmao

[@nycto5335]

I think the Titan melee should scale or scale better if it already does. Like you mentioned, melee builds tend suck in high end content. Making the melee scale with the amount of HP or damage resistance an enemy has would let the melee damage do high numbers in high end content and lower numbers in low end content so it isn't broken. If this is how it already works then they should make it scale better in high end content specifically. Then they should probably add a damage resistance buff on melee combatant kills so whenever you kill you can keep going without much fear of dying. Key word "combatant". If this buff was allowed in PvP Titans would just become super annoying. So keep these changes for PvE by making them apply to combatants only. Bungie has to understand that in high end content focusing on melee puts you at risk of dying way to often. If they really want Titan to be melee then they have to make sure Titans have ways to not die when doing their thing. By tweaking damage scaling and adding the on kill res buff Titans should be able to melee more in high end content. But a problem still stays. A lot of encounters dont let you get up close anyways due to the set up of the arena or the mechanics. This means melee builds will always still be somwwhat niche since some bosses cannot be meleed and stuff like that.

[@PocketTuna]

Yep I agree. I wish we knew the limitations under the hood

[@ek9750]

This is why I don't main titan anymore I am so tired of melee builds not being viable in endgame or simply not working because of the map designs

[@ratking1038]

8 Days and either happiness or disappointment

[@PocketTuna]

Either way I will let you guys know, very loudly whilst standing on top of a soap box, I cannot wait lol

[@Sargatas]

I have an entire GM-oriented build focused on tanking all the damage and supporting to my fellas with a ton of shields, healing and disabling enemies with suppression and blinding. I use an exotic glave with saint's helmet for this purpose. Glaives have no damage at all, but as a tool it's perfect. And I can capture any point-plates with ease while drinking my tea (like those yellow ones in birthplace). And being in the middle of a battle allows me to mark targets and literally command my friends to make everything fast and easy. Damn, I can even take fire of the glassway hydra boss while others just having free damage without any resistance. If this is not the "titan thing", I don't know what is)

[@HayateTsuki]

well apparently hammer of souls also dose not exists in these peoples mind saying that there's no far range supers for titans o-o when.... hammer of souls is a thing so I don't even know if they know a titan melee build if they seen it there's loads of melee base and other based builds for titan

[@Sargatas]

[@carlthejar7018]

My question is why didn’t bungee just make the strand, super for titans a giant barricade that gave you damage boost that you could shoot through

Everyone is alrerady crying about citan's they aren't ready for that lmao

For the soldier or commander question it’s probably because of halo

[@PocketTuna]

We need more of it since MAster chief is ruined in modern day Halo lol

[@Chef740]

I agree that the class needs more but I do wish people would give void titan more credit. Even if it's not as strong as it could be, having on command access to overshields and having all abilities apply volatile is still really strong. Seen way to many people call void Titan straight up bad when that just kinda feels dishonest.

[@PocketTuna]

It’s my favorite Titan subclass and definitely the best that’s why I gave it an 8/10 probably should’ve been more clear on that lol but I just don’t want to make a habit of only praising Bungie and not mentioning their shortcomings. That goes for any video game developer or company I may talk about in the future.

[@angelousmortis8041]

I honestly think Bastion should have two Fragment Slots. There's no point in it having One as, at this point, I'm pretty sure it's the only Aspect with ONE Fragment Slot.

[@PocketTuna]

Yeah I agree

[@deranemira7230]

I hate the part in 3.0 for void where now we only charge punch or shield throw we no longer have the punch kill without restrictions to get a over shield with melee sad thing that 3.0 was good but at the same time bad for deleting some aspect of each class another I think of and people speak about is arca loosing the passive to eat nade to throw healing nade now you eat it but just a burst around you for solar

[@PocketTuna]

I do miss the punch and get overshield also. But since you can throw up a barricade and get it I kinda understand

[@Drummerdinomic23]

Why did bungie nerf worm god yet not assassin’s cowl

[@PocketTuna]

We all know why brother lol

[@lambdadelta5743]

People dog on Behemoth sometimes, but I feel like it has a pretty good power fantasy to it as well. You are always in the frontline as a Behemoth in pve, achieving this by being able to generate crystals up the wazoo, allowing you to be offensive against enemies, or defensive and protect your teammates. Glacial quake is one of the only roaming supers in the game that feels genuinely powerful due to its kill potential and survivability, it makes you feel like an unstoppable force. Behemoth really succeeds, it has some problems (not super viable in pvp) but in my opinion its a very solid class that can work in endgame content, and I wish more people gave it a chance.

[@PocketTuna]

Despite how it plays after the nerfs I do like the concept of behemoth a lot. I can’t wait to dive into that one more, a few tweaks and I feel like it could be the best Titan class to date

[@andreymavian3400]

Dude, I feel that you take this Strand Titan situation too seriously. Titan has always been more than a punching class. Look at Behemoth, the Duskfield build involves zero punching, can literally male cover out of thin air and has add control of a Shadebinder with a turret. Every subclass class got a ranged melee now, even Striker whose identity is literally being a brawler. I don't know why you can't see any identity in Sunbreakers, but to me the way they use the light is very versatile and fits the subclass whose fantasy revolves around being a dragonborn. I agree that the way they present Titans sometimes is a bit lame, but the ideas are actually really cool. Admit that the only reason you say Titans don't have an identity is simply because they managed to make Hunter look a bit cooler, that's it.

[@PocketTuna]

Funny you should mention that. Sun breaker is my favorite subclass period. When I get to that subclass you’ll see but TLDR Sunbreaker is proof that Titan doesn’t have to be a punching brawler. It’s the most unique and in my opinion the most fun. Can’t wait to dive into that subclass

[@guardian-b3124]

Titan had a few ridiculus builds with the mini hammer. That`s why the melle damage is where it is at today. Like not out fault they dont properly go through what they put in their game.

[@PocketTuna]

Yeah I miss those nutty hammer builds lol it might not even be possible for them to fine tune each melee for each subclass like that idk seems like their engine can be pretty limiting at times

[@nycto5335]

I guess they could make Titan melee scale with the amount of HP or damage recistance an enemy has. Would allow Titan melee to do great damage in high end content but more toned down damage against lower end content so it's not broken and let's you just sweep the game with zero effort. If it already does scale then improve the scaling on hugher end content. My biggest issue is that the melee focus on Titan cannot be used in high end content so to fix that just make the damage scale. That way melee should do decent damage and with stuff like hammer you wouldn't insta die since you also get the heal.

[@HayateTsuki]

well I guess we should just let bubble take over pvp and pve then welp broken game play is the best apparently to this dude I don't even want to know his option on hunters cause it mite be hella bias or just nothing but trashing on it or saying its to op o-o guess well see. also I find it funny that you want people to just play melee in end game content when end game content is suppose to be challangeing ? and using your brain and skills to outplay said end game content so what I'm hearing is you want to just have everything easy life style ? and lets go with pvp for example next right ? so your telling me in pvp word of dawn should just be a win button ? cause that's what I think I'm hearing unless u got a another titan to fight that titan with paragon Greeves witch one shot inside the bubble cause that's not broken right ? yet your not happy with a super taking out another super ? how the fuck can a ability be ok to 1 shot and kill the person inside the bubble yet when someone using there super like golden gun its not ok for them ? that's some backswords logic there chief. P.S just kinda found out that apparently titans who are in bubble can live a heavy golden gun shot it takes 2 to kill one out of the three shooter that's insane

[@PocketTuna]

Idk what you’re saying really. Never said a super isn’t allowed to defeat ward of dawn. Never said ward of dawn should be a win a button either lol

[@jacobruiter592]

What are you on about? There are already counters to Ward of Dawn(golden gun and blade barrage pops it[barrage can sometimes nab a kill too], Thundercrash and Nova bomb kill anyone inside, Burning Maul can absolutely deal with it, I think even Chaos Reach can pop and possibly kill the people inside). Bungie is just changing it so EVERY SUPER can counter it now and kill anyone inside. Hell now you'll be able to "braindead" waltz in with a shotgun and just win. It'll be a slightly better super than Fists of Havoc, the worst super in the game for PvP. Bungie just needed to nerf the cooldown times for Well and Bubble to be 1 minute faster than roaming supers.

[@angelousmortis8041]

Seems like someone didn't play Fortress at all because as other people stated, there are 100% ways to pop bubbles and they absolutely GUTTED them in PvP whilst not touching WELL OF RADIANCE, which is just as bad as Bubble and is even a method of POPPING one via Scorch and Ignition.

[@TargetSniper365]

With the ability uptime nerfs coming and the insane amount of titan nerfs coming it’s pretty obvious titan’s time in the spotlight is coming to an end. Warlock is looking prime to take the throne. Unnerfed Starfire, new fragments that synergize with that build and not to mention warlock strand is insane looking and has a burst one and done super. Time to swap to the dress bud
