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 agree, melee kills are by far the most types of kills I can get. On the Moon, Firebase...yeah, I get slaughtered. Matter-of-fact, anywhere that it's not close-quarters combat, I get slaughtered. Titan's are slow. Very slow and considering they're supposed to be front line defense, they aren't. Hunters, beat me down with that Blade dance stuff!!! It's ok though because I will punch your face off if you get too close. Now, I am not the best PvP however, pretty good. What I see, it's just as evened out as anyone else. Sure, you don't get massive amounts of kills but technically, that's not the point when you're a Titan. As odd as that sounds, it's true. You're a tank and tanks get hit. You're slow. Now, my opinion, if you're going to make a Titan Frontline Assault which is what Striker is supposed to be, then they are the weakest in PvP because of the extremely limited short-range combat. Defender class is kind of cool, I mean, I make it pretty high up in the leaderboards on anything other than Rumble and Deathmatch (pardon the term, everyone knows Deathmatch). That is because that shield is worthless when Warlocks have their super. I believe it's the Nova? A rocket will take it down also. What's the point of having a point defense if it can be destroyed immediately along with the unlucky souls who thought that shield would protect them? Seems stupid to me. If it's going to be that vulnerable, make it where kinetic weapons can be shot through when you're INSIDE the bubble. All that being said, patience and the Titan can be played with success. Patience and skill and experience will place you in 1st place. Titan is tough and personally, makes a HORRIBLE PvP character however, it can be done. I will most likely level a Hunter because those guys have wicked agility. Pretty odd considering a Hunter should be long-medium range killers however they are ridiculously fast up close. I mean fast. It's ridiculous. And that whole disappearing thing...Way to go is Huntard if you ask me. Titan's are bad ass in PvE though. I mean, bad ass!
