For Hunters (Warlocks and Titans also!) who don't know how to counter this tank of a mobile Super, here's some ways!
Feel free to leave your tips for other Hunters in the comments, along with ways Warlocks and Titans can counter it! Instead of complaining, let's look for a way to compete with it!
[b][u]Gunslinger:[/u][/b] Just because you can't 1-shot with Golden Gun, doesn't mean Golden Gun is useless!
[b]Option 1:[/b] Use Celestial Nighthawk if you're really concerned about countering. Make sure not to rush while using it, you want to make sure you hit your shot, and not die while using it. I suggest activating it when you here the HoS, and waiting around the cornee to shut them down.
[b]Option 2:[/b] Fire 2 shots. If 1 shot doesn't kill them, shoot another one! It's 1 less kill you can get, but it takes out the HoS, and saves your teammates!
[b][u]Nightstalker:[/u][/b] Remember, this Super is meant to supress their Super [i]NOT[/i] to kill them!
[b]Option 1:[/b] Make sure to shoot your Shadowshot in front of them, not at them. Directly hitting them will most likely nit result in them staying there long enough to get tethered. Use corners to your advantage, and make sure to fire your Shadowshot near their pathway.
[b]Option 2:[/b] QUIVER! For people who really want to try to kill them, Quiver can do the job. If you spread your shots out, your most likely going to get hammered, so try to concentrate your shots within a short time period. Even firing all 3 arrows with quick succession can get you killed fast.
[b][u]Bladedancer:[/u][/b] This is similar to HoS, but Arc Blade lacks Range, unlike HoS.
[b]Option 1:[/b] Blink! Using Blink and Arc Blade can result in a fast counter! Using Blink to get closer can dodge these hammers if timed correctly. Using Blink can also cause the Sunbreaker's attention to waver, since you're everywhere!
[b]Option 2:[/b] Razor's Edge can do some work! Arc Blade lacks the Range that HoS has, but Razor's Edge can add some range. Timing these attacks can cause the Sunbreaker to die very fast, but you might need some assistance.
Remember, if you have any tips, comment! Let's help the community welcome this new Titan subclass...by countering it :D.
Edit 1: Also, if you can't compete, RUUUUUUUUNNNNNNN!!!

jump the tracking is so bad that if you jump you will most likely avoid the hammers

Use that helmet that gives you four golden gun shots. That way you get two more after killin the Titan and bada-bing! There you go a three shot GG and a dead HoS!

Edited by Shadow Mario 8: 10/5/2015 3:02:32 AMFor Strikers, just make sure you get the upper hand and slam them before they hammer you, remember you can tank a hammer while your in the slam mode For Voidwalkers I'd recommend using either Vortex or Shatter, and directly hit them, they won't be able to get out of the vortex in time and three mini nova bombs is likely enough to take out a Sunbreaker. Also, blink Stormcallers try and get a direct hit with Landfall, then if you can try and hit them with a little lighting, you might take them out, if not they'll be very close. Also Ionic Blink!

For defender Titans, give your hammer bro to suppression grenade.

And there is also the you can't option

Fourth horseman. Solves my Titan problem just fine

Edited by Swarthy_Grandeur: 10/5/2015 3:47:42 AMWoD can survive 2 hammers. Putting that out there. Y'all know what i meant
-
Nighthawk is a complete waste. Just use 2 shots or maybe someone else could've put the extra 3 damage on the Titan for the first shot to kill them. Even if you use 2 shots you have a third unlike nighthawk which is one and done miss or not.

I hate Potatoes.
-
Jolder's Hammer. There's only room for one hammer. Sorry Titans
-
Nightstalkers: Wait until hammer is thown then use your super to tank the hammer and suppress them.
-
If you actually want to survive? Run.

Wow it's nice to finally have all these posts about Titans for a change. It's nice to have the most feared (and likely OP) super in the game currently. We're in the spotlight this time.
