Are Titans the weakest in the Crucible, or am I just worse than I think?

I've tried Crucible over and over. My friends tell me it's fun, and that you have to get use to it, but they're playing as Warlocks and Hunters. I'm constantly being wrecked by players, that are mostly Hunters and Warlocks. Even thinking about it, I don't really see that many Titans in the Crucible. The Titan abilities seem to only really work in defense, even the Striker Subclass. Is any other Titan just getting destroyed out there? I'm good at games like Halo and Battlefield, and I'll admit, I'm not great at Crucible, but this is out of control! Does anyone feel the same? Are Titans a weaker PvP class?

    • I don't know how good or bad you are, but as a Titan I do feel it is the weakest. He is a soldier rather than a titan, people say titan is the strongest because of the super but its not true warlocks super beats titans super on range, blast radius, and duration. Hunters super beats it on range, speed, and duration. Also both the warlock and the hunter are harder to kill while active so is titan but again its beaten by the duration while active, titans is over in a second. The lack of proper aiming is also a downside since if you are aiming diagonally or on lift you can be aiming beside them or at them and you will be launched forward completely missing them most of the time. I don't mean for it to launch me across the map but it should at least launch you in the direction you are aiming rather than the direction your body is facing. Grenades for the striker sub class are also the weakest as none of them kill on explosion. Flash bang cannot kill even on a perfectly landed throw the flash only last 2 seconds at the most and unless you are in front of them (not a good idea if you plan to survive) it is useless to have them flashed. Pulse also does not kill on a perfect throw and even if they are at the centre of where it lands they have time to run away before the next pulse. Can't remember the last one but was not good it the beta either. Honestly I wish Bungie would balance it out but I don't know if they will. People say the defence is the titans strong suit but it is also not true since gear all has the same defence points for the iron banner and the statics on your subclass are useless since it would take the same amount of head shots for you to die as the other two classes. It makes me feel mad and useless when I get killed by others supper or grenades only because if anybody would make a post about they would be bombarded with hate and if Bungie balanced it out people would complain forgetting that Titans are pretty much close range and their defence on most pvp play list is ignored. Also I noticed that one of the abilities on the beta was that using lift increased the leap of your super and was changed to sprinting increases leap distance which is like running forward with a shotgun because it will ultimately get you killed. (if you need to gain distance it means you are far away so running forward gets you killed most times, you would not need the extra distance if you were close thats why I compare it to running forward with a shotgun)

    • Titans are bar-none the best class for crucible. You can survive fusion rifle hits and one shot people with shoulder charge.

    • Titan Defenders are like Death Magnets. I want desperately to like the defender but here is the problem. You are essentially a sitting duck. Nothing comes in nothing goes out, its just a stalemate. The mechanics of this class need to change. Other Supers break the bubble with no repercussion and you are dead. The only thing defender seems to work for is control and even that is debatable. Perhaps outgoing damage is reduced? Or at least don't let the damn hunters arc blade right through it. They should cancel each other out. From what I can see the ladder is as such: Hunter Warlock Titant

        Sorry to say you must just be worse than you think, no offense meant. I see Titans owning all the time and it seems to be the most popular class I find myself up against. I noticed a large majority of them use shotguns, but then again a lot of non-titans use them too. I play a Bladedancer Hunter, and the thing that seems to counter me the most is a Titan with absurd defense in his bubble, a Warlock with Radiance active, or a shotgun to the face. I've hit a Titan 3 times in a row with Arc Blade while he was in his bubble just to end up dead without a kill. I've had the same result with a Warlock with Radiance active. And anyone who can get a good shot on me up close with a shotgun will insta-kill me even when using Arc Blade (which admittedly can be very difficult to do when an Arc Blade hunter is lunging all over the place). In other words, I'd say the pvp game is for the most part well balanced and each class has their advantages and disadvantages in certain situations. There are some things that could us a little tweaking, but nothing really major (besides the loot drops imo). Golden Gun can be a little underwhelming in terms of it's killing potential compared to other supers, but it can be used at pretty long range and OHKs vehicles so it has its uses too. Edit: My brother often does pvp with me on his Titan and he almost always places in the top 2 along with me. He doesn't do as well as I do, but I think that's more of a skill thing than class thing. He enjoys the class quite a bit.

      • No class is overpowered or underpowered, it's just finding one that suits you, look at their stats and decide which is best for your play style. The only thing that I have noticed is that the titans health but lack of recovery and speed makes it lower risk and lower reward whereas the warlock and the hunter are higher risk but can lend themselves better to skilled players.

      • I play a Hunter. 90% of the time the class that ends one of my killing sprees is a raging Titan. That flashbang grenade is deadly, and at higher levels the Ward of Dawn ability is a game changer. What level are you?

      • I have learned that the class you choose should directly be affected by your play style. I role a titan just fine and love it. I just cant seem to understand the people who say titans are useless in RAID yet they complain about them being OP

        I disagree, it's so hard for me to kill Titans. They just absorb so much damage. And their punch kills my warlock in one hit.

      • Hell no. If you're not good as a Titan then you're trash. Anyone who thinks titans suck should come see me first. Titans take skill, hunters and warlock require no skill whatsoever those are the noob classes

        • As a hunter, I actually find titans to be the hardest to kill in PvP. Hunters are the easiest if you can catch them unprepared. Warlocks are just a bunch of space nerds.

          • They're not weakest. You just don't see them because they need better PR. Hunters are the title characters. Everyone want to play the title character. Warlocks can fling space magic nukes around so people want to play them. The only thing Titans have going for them is the armor but even then that's not widely publicized. Titans just lack popularity because they aren't showcased as much. So people don't play them as much as the other two. As for my Striker Titan? I'm not the greatest Crucible player ether. I have my good days and I have my bad days. I don't feel weaker or stronger then ether of the other classes.

              • Everyone thinks their class is the weakest but the truth is that the kill times are just too quick in Destiny. It's a skillless game where every single thing kills you 1 hit.

                • Seriously I feel like Titans are the strongest. They soak up bullets and I find myself having to Melee them up to three times to get the kill! Meanwhile they just melee me once and I'm dead as a hunter using blink strike. smh. Oh, and lets not forget Fists Of Havoc. These guys are clearly descendants of Bruce Banner...

                • I agree with others in that Titans are favored in close quarters and many of the maps are close quarters, especially Rumble. As a Hunter it's frustrating when playing those maps.
