Titans are underpowered because their skill tree doesn't increase weapon benefits like a hunters (weapons ready, gunslingers trance, speed reload)
Or provide residual effects like a warlock (burns, grenades)
Hunters supers help rack up kills and they have blink
Warlocks have blink
Titans have shoulder charge which will get you killed a lot.
I main a defender and it's all about play style. I learned how to play well with a titan
People rely on hunters skill tree and super which is why they're are used more
That reason alone, I respect good players that are Titans. It's the hardest class to be competitive with. Fools cry about FoH and shoulder charge but if they hopped on a titan they would be terrible.
Don't get me started on how underpowered the ward of dawn is, yet I use it because when it's not getting pooped on by all the other supers, it's beautiful.
Own your titan and master it. It's a rare breed.
And I just realized how old this thread is but the fact still stands.

I agree. At one point I had all 3 classes. I now have 3 Titans. Not because they are op, but because I love them. The titan fits my playstyle very well. I'm not that great in crucible but I hold my own. Tactics are why I love Titans, area denial is how you do well with them imo. Force people into situations that benefit you with well placed grenades, bubbles, ect.

Underpowered? Think you mean overpowered. The shoulder charge thing is a -blam!-ing joke.

Everywhere!

Shoulder charge will kill you more than it helps you. It's not good. This is coming from someone who mains a titan and played countless pvp hours with it.
-
Ive been killed so many times by it lol.
-
Those are rare instances. Trust me when I say this, it is not good.

This was put beautifully. I main a titan, but also have the other two classes. My titan has always felt like an underdog in crucible, but I've played enough with it to be competitive. So when I have good matches and get sent hate mail about my abilities being op I think it's funny. If titans were op, there would be more than 2 or 3 a match. Titans usually seem more chill and respectful to each other than other classes. I enjoy trading punches with other skilled titans more than anything else. #Titanbros4lyfe

Surely you aren't talking about in the crucible
