Bungie needs to add a ranged titan super to Destiny, why?? because every class in Destiny has a ranged super besides for Titans. Warlocks can get midrange kills with the nova bomb, or get buffs with sun-singer, and Hunters can use Golden Gun. This lack of a projectile super becomes especially apparent during boss-fights.
The reason this came up was because I was playing the weekly heroic strike with three defender titans when the Summoning pits was the weekly heroic strike, so I decided to switch to Striker codex. However Fist of Havoc's attack just seemed to just roll off Phogoth instead of damaging him, and he would immediately counter by insta-killing me. So when I ask for a ranged super, I don't mean "long-range" or even "medium range", I just mean a projectable offensive super which can be used to damage a boss, while the player can still be far enough away from the boss not to get blasted by the bosses proximity attack (Some examples of proximity attacks would be; Phogoth and Archon priest both doing an insta-kill stomp, and Fallen Walkers releasing Arc grenades).
Also this 3rd subclass should be a solar damage subclass, because Titans only have Void and Arc subclasses for now. Also warlocks and hunters would be getting subclasses for their respective missing elemental type as well.

Titian's don't need a ranged super. First off when you look at the titian description it says something along the lines of settling everything with their fists. But the main point in your argument was that you could not safely damage the boss with your super. That is probably the worst point I have heard for super buff/nerf topics. Bosses are bullet sponges and usually slow moving and easy to dodge. The things that really kill you in strikes and raids are the adds, or mobs w/e you call them. Your supper should never be used on the boss. PERIOD. That's why we have heavy amo. Supers should be used to clear out mobs and generate orbs of light to feed more supers, radiance and the titian buble are prime examples because those can benefit the rest of the team. If your using the super on the boss you were doing it wrong in the first place.
