Destiny 2 Titan BuildUnbreakable Titan

The whole point of this build is to give people a reason to use something other than Consecration, but trying to get you to use Unbreakable is a hard sell. So why would you use it? Two part answer for a simple question: 1. It functionally counts as a grenade, but can also be used defensively. 2. Fast Supers and Explosions. What more could a Titan want?

However, this does mean we are reliant on one of two exotic items and without one of them, I would absolutely not bother using this Aspect. You can, but half the reason to use this thing is because of just how absurdly quickly you get your super. And the super is useful in more ways than one, which will be discussed a bit later on.

That being said, is this really worth an Aspect AND your exotic slot?

When you use your Unbreakable Shield, if you get a kill, you will:

• Gain Super Energy (Due to Aspect of the Bear)
• Proc Ashes to Assets (gain super energy)
• Proc Firepower (Generate an orb; gain super energy) This is 3 different instances of Super generation that will all add up to nearly 25% of your super from one grenade if you absorb enough damage [there is an audio blip when you absorb max damage which is also a good time to drop the shield, blow stuff up, and get out of dodge]
• Proc Facet of Bravery (Gain Volatile Rounds) Because Explosions
• Proc Facet of Dominance (Weaken your Target)
• Give you an overshield ( Intrinsic to Aspect; negate some damage and increase barricade regen)
• Give you more Overshield (Artifact Mod Void Hegemony)
• Give you HP, and Grenade Energy back (because at this point the only empty ability you have is your grenade so Orbs of Restoration will feed into it giving 10%+10%, which is more than just 13% if you stack 2 Innervation mods)
• Give you Radiant (Artifact Mod Radiant Orbs)
• Increase the damage you deal with Ros Arago (Artifact Mod Expanding Abyss)
• Increase Melee Damage (Artifact Mod Shieldcrush)
• Increase Grenade regen (Artifact Mod Shiledcrush)

If you also pop the shield of an enemy during this, you also gain the effects of Press the Advantage from the Artifact Mod, which just serves to make the build feel even smoother.

In addition to all of that, the shield lasts long enough to revive a downed guardian, which doesn't really matter if you're using Towering Barricade, except that: 1. We aren't using Towering Barricade 2. Absorbing damage while we res gives us our super back faster

• This is true for PvE as well as PvP which makes an interesting situation in something like Trials where someone tries to rush you to stop the res and you just pull up an invulnerable shield, get the res and secure the kill (I probably use Knockout there for once the blast takes out their shield, but that's a different guide and I historically don't like PvP that much so what do I know...)

You gain all of these benefits in the first 5 seconds of combat from pressing one button. If that isn't worth your time, nothing past this will matter to you, but feel free to continue reading as it just gets better from here.

Consuming your grenade for all those previously mentioned benefits is nice, but sometimes you just need to throw a good exploding orb. We're taking Pulse Grenade here, and using it instead of consuming it for Unbreakable does the following for us:

• Jolts Targets (this also stuns Overload champs)
• Grants Volatile Rounds (Facet of Bravery)
• Procs Ashes to Assets (Increased Super energy)
• Procs Firepower (Generates an Orb) I'm not going to relist all the benefits of picking up an orb because I just did that, just remember, it's a lot.
• Increases Grenade Recharge rate and Damage (Artifact Mod Shieldcrush)

Basically, the most important reason to throw your grenade instead of using it for Unbreakable, is if there are: 1. A lot of enemies in front of you the jolt will clear out trash, though arguably still using Unbreakable here and starting the loop is probably more fun, if not riskier and less efficient 2. Stun Overload Champs

Combining the other ability into one section here, we're taking Shiver Strike with this build. I know, it's hard to believe we're taking anything other than Frenzied Blade, especially once you get the reasons, but let me cook.

Although it isn't listed anywhere in the ability description for some reason, Shiver Strike does actually slow targets on hit, and shatters enemies killed by the ability, resulting in a very small radius slow burst. Why is this important? Using Shiver Strike does the following for us:

• Slow stuns Overload Champs
• Kills grant Unraveling Rounds (Stuns Barrier Champs)
• Hits grant Radiant (Increased Damage, Stuns Barrier Champs)
• Procs Facet of Devotion (Bonus Light Transcendence)
• Procs Facet of Hope (causes Barricade to charge faster)
• Deals more Damage if used with a void Overshield active (not intrinsic to this melee, but does help it feel better [This happens because of Artifact Mod Shieldcrash])

We can also use this melee to get us out of a sticky situation, much the same as Frenzied Blade, however on a significantly shorter cooldown, and with just a bit more utility in my opinion, although Frenzied Blade does sever targets hit with it, so you can achieve pretty much all the same results here if you want to swap it out, but you won't be able to stun overload champs with your melee (not that you probably really want to be doing that but it can be nice to have a solid "oh sh**" button sometimes).

Finally we'll cap off the section with the class ability. All things considered, this one can be completely left up to you. Towering Barricade can provide good coverage if you leave yourself in a bad spot, and Thruster can get you out of a bad spot and turn your Drengr's Lash into an AoE Burst, rather than a Line effect. I opted for Rally Barricade because I like the extra stats it gives, I like that it can (although admittedly probably shouldn't) be used as cover, and because it stays out of the way so that you can immediately fire down on suspended targets. I also have a hidden agenda in that I plan to use a Stoicism with Spirit of the Bear and Spirit of Alpha Lupi on it once I get one, since Lupi doesn't proc off of Thruster (bungo plz).

Casting your Barricade doesn't do anything out of the ordinary.

• Generates an Orb (Reaper) You get all the Orb benefits obviously
• Generates Grenade Energy
• Generates Melee Energy
• Suspends Targets

I will say that the other reason to use Rally Barricade is because of Facet of Solitude. It just makes it that much easier to land precision hits, thus triggering the severing blast, which will then trigger Facet of Devotion and so on and so on. Basically I get just enough synergy out of it to justify using it over the other two options.

Weapons are one of those things that are pretty subjective, so I'll just explain why I'm using what I'm using, but feel free to swap these out to anything. As long as you can get good synergies here you're fine, and I will attempt to provide at least one or two alternate weapons to use in each slot. My weapons of choice are by no means highly competitive, but I like using them, and they get the job done, and that's what counts. Don't forget to have fun.

Kinetic Slot Ager's Scepter (Exotic Stasis Trace Rifle)

• Slow burst on kill offers huge synergy
• Never have to reload when mowing down trash mobs
• Can consume Super to Slow on hit and cause shatters, rather than kill, also amps damage Ager's is great here because it is a special weapon so it has good damage already, it's exotic so it absolutely plows through red bars, and it offers an extra level of utility. Sometimes jumping in the air and throwing axes isn't such a good idea, or sometimes you have an angry Champion running you down and no abilities ready to throw but you don't want to "waste" your super. Consume your super with Agers to amp its damage and counter 2/3 champs and watch the rest of the room freeze over around you. Alternates
• Riptide with Chill Clip fulfills the same function
• Quicksilver Storm is a good option if you'd prefer an Energy Special weapon and also still synergizes well with the build since it is Strand, but I do prefer the stasis utility here over the raw damage that Strand offers.

Energy Slot Ros Arago IV (Void Auto Rifle) My Roll: Corkscrew Rifling, Appended Mag, Enhanced Rewind Rounds, Enhanced Onslaught, Backup Mag weapon mod

• Absolutely shreds through red bars
• Excellent at bursting down yellow bars once the build engine gets spun up
• Excellent at popping Barrier Champ bubbles This thing absolutely shreds and if you get a Rewind Rounds Onslaught roll, please try it. Once you get the Volatile Rounds active on this thing, it absolutely pumps out damage and mows down enemies. Such a fun gun to shoot, and the fact that we're constantly getting so many buffs to our stability/handling/reload means this thing is accurate, buttery smooth, and rarely stops sending bullets down lane. Enhanced Rewind Rounds really helps here because Onslaught absolutely chews through ammo. Without it, you'll be reloading constantly. If you don't mind that though, Repulsor Brace would work in that slot, since your Volatile Rounds will constantly proc that and give you more overshield. Alternates
• Graviton Lance is never a bad option
• Your favorite void SMG
• Void Ergo Sum if you're feeling spicy I chose all void here to synergize with Void Super, but obviously feel free to use anything else you like.

Power Slot Marcato-45 (Strand Machine Gun) My Roll: Arrowhead Break, Appended Mag, Triple Tap, Onslaught

• Feels good to shoot
• Does its job as a Machine Gun reliably I'll be honest with you, I am 100% using this thing just because I think it feels nice, and I wanted a Strand weapon to be able to make use of Unraveling Rounds since we'll basically always have it. If I want to use it, then I can. I don't actually suggest anyone use this because if you're doing anything high end you will probably get flamed for using this type of thing. That being said, Triple Tap is nice for extended DPS phases, the thing is steady as hell, and Todd Howard would be proud (It just works). Alternates
• Literally anything.
• Apex Predator
• Thunderlord
• Microcosm

Is this build the best? Probably not. But this thing is like a work horse. It's solid, it's reliable, and it'll get the job done. Best of all, you can take it for a spin and have some fun with it every once in a while. I enjoy a build that I don't have to think very much to use (Obviously, I main Titan), so this one is very nice. You feel strong, literally everything works together, you get all your abilities and super back fast as hell, and you don't have to know theoretical astro-calculus to make the Traveler proud. Even if you use abilities "out of order" the thing is still gonna work just fine and you're gonna be cookin. Try it out, give Unbreakable a chance, and have some fun.

Or you know... just do another consecration build.

Good luck out there guardians!
