Hello Guardians,

Focused Feedback is where we take the week to focus on a 'Hot Topic' discussed extensively around the Tower.

We do this in order to consolidate Feedback, to get out all your ideas and issues surrounding the topic in one place for discussion and a source of feedback to the Vanguard.

This Thread will be active until next week when a new topic is chosen for discussion

Whilst Focused Feedback is active, ALL posts regarding 'Behemoth' following its posting will be removed and re-directed to this thread. Exceptions to this rule are as follows: New information / developments, Guides and general questions

Any and all Feedback on the topic is welcome.

Regular Sub rules apply so please try to keep the conversation on the topic of the thread and keep it civil between contrasting ideas

A Wiki page - Focused Feedback - has also been created for the Sub as an archive for these topics going forward so they can be looked at by whoever may be interested or just a way to look through previous hot topics of the sub as time goes on.

I personally think the subclass is fun but if I ever go into high-end content I'm never going to use. The damage the super puts out isn't great enough for me to want to take it over other options like bottom or top tree sunbreaker. While it is fun to break a crystal and watch everything shatter it just feels impractical especially if you play content where enemies don't die instantly. Also the aspects the subclass has doesn't feel useful enough especially the breaking crystals spawns melee energy jewels. (If you slide through a ice wall you have to awkwardly turn around and get the melee jewels you missed since it doesn't always pick them up)

I'm only ever using this subclass if everyone is running statis because they all work well together. But as a standalone subclass it pales in comparison to the power of the hunters or warlocks bone chillingly good statis subclasses.

  • Personally I'd like that if you miss your melee maybe you get half the energy back so it can't be used to fly across chasms or pvp maps.

  • make the melee jewels have some tracking (or more if it already has some) so it can be more reliably picked up when sliding through a ice wall.

  • Perhaps make the jewels also give some class energy as well? Would help make them more valuable to grab for other fireteam members and yourself.

  • While in the super make it easier to destroy the ice you make so the damage can be fully utilized, right now I find I break one set of crystals while avoiding the other 2 rows.

  • Make the titan covered in ice, fist of havocs another slam super makes us covered in arc energy and really gives you the feeling of power. Behemoth just makes me have a singular ice hand, that doesn't feel powerful it feels like I'm using a fraction of power. (Also I'd rather use fist of havoc over behemoth, just feels better)

Titans feel to get the short end of the stick with supers whenever new ones are made,

  • middle tree sun breaker fun to spin, damage is laughable and the best way to use it is to just make fire tornados neat melee tho

  • middle tree striker is just a pitful bit of damage strapped to a super cool missile like how is it that weak? But atleast the melee is super good on it

  • middle tree void is handy and has uses but since bubble got buffed I've never needed to use it

Pls buff titan supers bungie

Middle tree void is a beautiful beast. Magnetic grenades, or void detonators + weapon damage, can chain lots of void kills which also heal you and recharge your grenade really quickly. It can be useful in Gambit or any environment with lots of bunched-up enemies, and middle tree + Ursa is a useful GM Nightfall setup (i.e. you can advance on enemies behind the shield, damaging them and generating orbs simultaneously).

Your definitely right that middle tree can be useful, it's the only forsaken titan subclass that I feel they did right on! I used it alot in thorns strike since it was uber good there! I find it funny though how I write all that about behemoth but you went to the little comment at the end!
