Why are Strikers awful in PvP? The Super is quite effective and the Lightning Grenades reap in the right hands. My K/D was very close to my Bladedancer and above my Voidwalker..
I look at the classes as a whole and how good they are in all match types. Personally I like to use characters that either have high agility (aka blink
) or a super that has a lot of kill potential because I like to play aggressive. Titans feel like a slow moving tank when trying to play aggressive, especially against a bunch of blink shotgunners. And as for their super, it's very situational... it's a one shot to get as many enemies grouped up as you can and you have to be in close proximity (unless you use death from above, but that's also situational). So yes, it can be very good in certain situations, but in match types where either everyone is spread all over the place (rumble, clash) or people play safe and a lot of battles are at a distance (skirmish, elimination) fist of havoc feels very limited to me.
If you look at the top Destiny PVP players, there aren't many Titans. And everyone that I play crucible with like their titan the least for PVP. Sunbreaker may change some minds though.
Well I like to complain about other classes...TBH between Arc Blade, Hammer, and Stormtrance they seem fairly similar in kill potential. Hammer is just maybe 20%-30% (just to pull a number out of my ass) more powerful/better.
Evidently arc blade/stormtrance have 50% damage reduction, Hammer is 55% (though it seems like more). I am not sure but dont Hammer Titans regen health also?
Damage reduction seemed higher to me, too. But I do know that they have health regen also, so that might explain it.
Just did another Spindle attempt, that time got the boss down to like 10%. A lot better than my first attempt. Anyways it seems possible. However I'm at the least going to wait and see if Bungie nerfs it down to a 290 drop with their 10AM PDT patch before trying any more.
Damn I didn't know there was gonna be a patch so soon... probably will nerf it. I should go infuse my second one before the nerf.
In case you didn't know, you have to clear all of the ads after you take down the boss. We stayed in the first little room killing only the ads that would be bothersome to us when DPSing the boss. Use as much heavy as possible on him and snipers as well. Use a synth early so you have one ready for the boss battle and only use your heavy in the first few rooms if you have to. If you have hunters or titans, obviously use weapons of light and/or tether him with the bow. If you have a stormcaller, use it to clear ads nearby and to generate orbs.
For the rooms leading up to the boss, kill the blights first and use your supers on the ads, generating as many orbs for each other as possible. I would recommend a shotgun or maybe a fusion rifle for these rooms until you get to the boss.
And it looks like none of the armsday DIS-43 rolls have full auto
. I had ordered 3 in hopes of getting full auto...disappointing. Come to think of it I guess ordering multiples doesn't give you more rolls anyway. Dumb me...
I'm pretty sure the rolls on the weapons are the same for everyone for the week. But yeah, disappointing. At least this week he has the DIS-47 for order. Hopefully with full auto.
