When I first starting playing Destiny, the obvious choice for me was out of a Warlock and a Hunter. I figured that people who liked Warlock were a sophisticated people. We were those who enjoyed asking questions, knowledge, mystery, art and enlightenment.
Hunters were people who liked adventure and discovery, stealth and challenge.
But Titan players? Titan players were clearly uneducated and uncouth. A people to avoid. They were those who always took the easy way out.
Afterall, why else would somebody pick a Titan and go into PvP with a Shotgun? Who else could enjoy running around the map punching people in the mouth, barging them and kneeing them mid air? Panic Fist of Havoc and dancing in their bubble on a flag then tea-bagging anyone who enters after certain death? These people must be the dregs of society.
Or so I thought...
Outside of PvP, the Titans are very useful! I am always in awe of the tools that they have to protect other guardians. Most of all in the Raid. I am actually dismayed if we have less than two Titans on the team.
But there is more to Titans than their part in the game. The people who pick Titans - the real life person - the players behind the Titans; are the nicest people that you can find!
I'm dead serious! I was just looking at my friend list and I came to realise that the people who have made the best conversation, been the most helpful, made me laugh the most, encouraged me when I have struggled; have all been Titan players.
Titan players are not only very useful in the game, but they are very intelligent people who know how to have fun and they are simply a joy to be around!
Take a moment to look at your own Destiny friends. Let's see if its just me or not. I have a feeling that it won't only be me who sees this. Titan players can troll you hard in PvP but they are really nice guys!
Beneath all of that argy-bargy bravado, beneath the heavy armour and testosterone lies a real heart of gold. Without Titan players, the community would be at a huge loss. They are to our credit and they are the needle that sews together the very fabric of our community.
They built the wall around the Last City. And I can assure you that when the Darkness returns, we will be in need of every Titan that we can find.
I used to hate Titans like you...
But now I have come to love them and they are my best friends. If you haven't got a Titan buddy yet, I implore you to find a few. You won't regret it!
Perhaps, just like the [url=http://destiny.wikia.com/wiki/Unfriendly_Giant]Unfriendly Giant[/url], Titan players are simply misunderstood. Or perhaps a little shy (although more often than not a little overconfident).
But who could blame them? They make everything look easy, but they are really working hard to protect and look after us all.
Titans, you have my thanks and my respect. I celebrate you. I salute you.
[spoiler]And I really... [i]really[/i]... [b][u]REALLY[/u][/b]... enjoy your Disco Bubble Dance Parties![/spoiler]
This, coming from a Warlock and Hunter player, and a [url=http://www.bungie.net/en/Clan/Forum/511412/0/1/0]Thorny Guardian[/url].
See you all Starside.

Edited by sn3rif: 11/6/2014 12:04:20 AMMy brother came out as a Titan. We've come to accept that. He's family after all.

In fairness, I love all three classes (and actually restarted my Warlock and Hunter who were both mid 20's so I can play them alongside my wife). Yet my main is a Titan for the same reason I play a Paladin whenever I can - I will be the shield, I will be the wall. I will provide healing, revives, defense, buffs, and support. The enemies will break upon me as I take as much of their fire as I can stand - and then a little more. I will thin the herd of foes where possible, divert the attention of the heavy hitters so my allies can eliminate them, and run into the mouth of hell to bring back a downed teammate. I like being strong and able to dish out punishment - but I love being able to stand as an anchor point for my fellow Guardians. Thank you for your kind words, and I hope to see you out there on the frontlines. May the Light of the Traveler guide and protect you!

That is surprisingly nice to hear. I like being a Titan so that I can give my fire team an over shield.

Titian friendship to op Plz ban

You slogan/quote I do not like at all. Titans have been designed to have the upper hand in the game. They can easily destroy either with the fist of havoc or defender that others use. Titans are there to squash those like you.

Im lvln a titan now and its my third of the three. I love my bubble of awesomness. Just need the saint helm for it.
-
Thank you for giving us a chance good sir, you get a cookie
-
Titans are OP, Nerf them. The bubble should only last one second and the fists should have a radius of 1 inch. Their guns should be replaced with bubblegum. Please DeeJ, hurry. I need to get a kill in PVP, and this seems like the best way.

I love being a titan cause i can shoulder Charge people on the balls.

Love this post. Have played a Titan since the day destiny came out and only rarely play my other classes. I would rather take the bullet so my buddy doesn't.

I'm a Guardian of Many faces. Titan: Many people forget that Titans are not just Knuckle dragging brutes that throw down their super like a Running Back in the Superbowl. I myself regularly play a Titan in Crucible, and I enjoy running up Juuuusssttt as you have 2-3 buddies trying to capture a point, and I personally yell "Touchdown Titan!" before I smash down and wipe out half the enemy team. Is it bro? Hell yea. It feels great to wipe out multiple players with such a manly super. Yes.... You can slice and dice people like Jack the Ripper on cocaine, or feel like Zeus when firing that Nova Bomb, but the Titan is one of the more hands on Characters. Especially with the Shoulder charge. Warlock: Those Titans are too big man. They just come around the corner and BLAM! I'm dead. At least I can fly..... Hunter: Thank God I have a gun that can shoot them from a distance.
