My fellow Titans:

Let me set the scene for you; You're just wondering around, capturing some points in control, when you decide that popping your Ward of Dawn is a good idea. Good? Great. Now you have a viable way to defend the objective for a short period of time until it goes away. ..and by 'goes away' I mean that some cocky Hunter or a snotty Warlock has come along, used their respective Super Charge and now, 3 seconds after you popped it up to relax under with a spot of Titan Tea, you are sat naked, alone, and wondering where your dead teammates are. Can any of my brothers relate? Can anyone offer a suitable explination as to why [i]our[/i] super is the weakest? When it is currently the only subclass that really promotes strategy. Rise with me, fellow Titans! Take back the Dawn! Fight for a buff! [spoiler]..or don't, I'm not your mother.[/spoiler] Edit: This thread was made with a fun little theme to it to try and avoid all the usually negativity on these forums, so thanks for everyone for keeping it civil. Edit 2: I have the saint-14 helm, and usually do very well within my precious bubble. It just makes me a sad little Titan when the super gets taken down by another super. Edit 3: Im not saying that it shouldn't be taken down when a super is used against it. What I am saying is that it shouldn't kill everything inside. The warlock and hunter supers currently just fly through it as if it wasn't there.

  • The Ward of Dawn is a truly excellent super, under certain conditions. In PvE, this can dominate/save you and your team, especially when used in tandem with another Titan using Fist of Havoc (looking at this week's Nightfall). In PvP, if you use the super early on, or AFTER everyone pops their supers, it's a great way to shotty it up a notch and generate some mad orbs for your teammates. However, if you're trying to run-and-gun, go lone-wolf, or generally do anything BUT play a pillar-support role, it's uses are severely limited. That's the thing about it being so strategic, though, is that it's GREAT for support, but if you want to do any offense, you gotta change it up. This applies to the classes themselves, I think. From what I've seen, hunters are excellent in PvP, but can struggle (especially blade-dancer) in PvE. Titans are PvP/PvE balanced, for the most part. Warlocks seems to just utterly rock PvE, while sometimes struggling in PvP against Titans or hunters. It's all about strategy, though, and really knowing the tools at your disposal.
