Are Striker titans overpowered?
As we wrap up iron banner I've been wanting to see what people think when it comes to striker titans. Personally I think that class is pretty overpowered for their super and melee abilities. Now I have two hunters because I deleted my titan for now, but I've played a bunch with the titan class all the way from the beta. Whats most frustrating is they are nearly impossible to kill when they use fist of panic. I get that they have the unstoppable perk but I didn't realize that would be literal. At least warlocks can be killed while they nova bomb even if it's a slight chance. I've hit titans with shotgun blasts, arc blade hits, even a truth rocket to the face after they had half health, but no matter what they do not die when that animation begins. It's so annoying because I'm clearly winning a gun fight only for a titan becoming invincible and kill me in the process. Also it can hit you while your in the air above the ground lol! Then the shoulder charge, the only 1 shot kill melee in the game has no cooldown? That's crazy to me. It also locks on if you try to go under or above the titan. So what do you guys think are they op? Need a nerf?

4 Replieswell... wasting your super to panic kill 1 guy... i dont call that op. hunters can just pop up their super and roflstomp 4 guys with golden gun or bladedancer, unless they get killed by another super. bladedancers cant get killed neither with a rocket or shotgun to the face, same goes to nova panic. thats simply how the game rolls and titans get a bit extra defence since they are the "tank" class. the shoulder charge is a 50/50. noobs get killed, skilled players kill you while you try to use it. i dont rly see its point since everyone walks arround with autos, shotguns and fusions so... easy kill unless ofc you sprint arround a corner. but normal people learn and stay away from the corners. axion bolts, throwing knife, scorched melee, flaming shield and the hunters blink 1hit "when using backstab perk but still one hit kills when it hits in the face" is just as "op" or unbalanced. [quote]Also it can hit you while your in the air above the ground lol![/quote] nova panic does the same, just with a bigger radius. blade dancers can fly and pick you up even though youre way higher^^ and they have the shockwave that travels arround the ground with a pretty big hit radius too. [quote]That's crazy to me. It also locks on if you try to go under or above the titan.[/quote] because its a melee. the normal melee doesnt even lock on, or just barely, if someone is near you. the warlocks melee locks on on every occasion. same to bladedacner ofc, but there its at least a super. every class has cheap tricks and skills, thats how this game works. when i play titan i barely use my super because theres rarely a good opportunity to use it. so mostly im saving it for radiance warlocks or bladedancers. i play since day 1 and barely got 36 cry havocs (3kills with fist of panic) xD ask the hunters how many way of the gun and gutted medals they have^^ (taking you as an example; even though you barely have 1.00kd you still got 55 gutted and 18 way of the gun on only half as much pvp matches as i do.) and if you want to do your own research check the people who respond to this thread. i see people with 22, 12, 9, 26, 38, 13, 15, 21 cry havocs... and there were some real good pvp players with 2,6kd and 3,12. none of them can reach up to your average way of the gun and gutted medals. it may be a panic super, but it doesnt grant many kills.
