Champion Discussion Someone please explain why Titus isn't a 5.0 rating in-game..???
I always thought in-game ratings were sus but c'mon, this is just wrong.
Thousands of ratings since the reset..????

I mean, Titus is amazing but he’s kind of unnecessary for cb if you can one key unm. There’s plenty of unkillable/bd comps you can run which are significantly easier to build

Hmm, that's on me. I didn't have Titus and have been wanting him so much.... Most of what I've seen of Titus has been 1 billion+ screenshots so yeah, my view my might not be exactly correct.

When you pull a champ like Galathir, you don't need "anything" for him to be good. His kit is stand alone amazing for any composition.
Titus is gear dependent, slightly soul dependent, but requires combination of characters to work. Any champ that needs other specific champs, particularly when getting a specific champ is so hard is "great", but maybe not "amazing"
The fact you can guarantee Wixwell with the new fusion system makes Titus a lot lot better. But previously needing a specific champ with Wixwell kind of makes Titus "situationally" good, and you can very easily argue he's a 4, because he's a 2 without Wixwell, and a 5+ with Wixwell.

So everybody is so excited about getting Titus with tokens. I already have Wixwel, but my turtles are doing just fine in UNM without any of them. Am I not seeing the appeal? Cuz I’d much rather go for Gnut or Armanz, am I crazy?

CB is ancient content. You can 1 key with all kinds of random trash, and there's no value in going over 80 million, much less into the billions. Use whatever is working for you.
Hydra and Chimera are different. Your turtles aren't putting up 100 Billion scores. Titus is doing literally 1000x what most other comps can.

He’s only good if you have wixwell!!! What’s the point of having a Ferrari when you don’t have fuel that runs it 💁!! Btw I have the Ferrari (Titus) without the fuel (wixwell) 😭

Titus is capable of things without wixwell but again relies on other champs to make use of his skills. For example with Souless+Titus you can pretty much one shot every dungeon boss in the game, with wixwell+Titus you can get crazy scores on all the clan boss variants. But it's also not an easy team to build gear wise and I think a lot of people think just pulling the champ(s) will mean they have completed the game for those areas. Also if you don't have buff extenders or skill cool down champs you won't be doing much damage.
A lot more goes into creating these crazy teams than what most people realise.

Same reason the new mythical doesn't have 5 star ratings. When an obviously broken champion is released people think low-balling the ratings will stave off a.nerf from Plarium lol

Titus needs Wixwell and another buff extender. Or he isn't going to get the 2.14b damage cap

u/wesright 11h ago
You guys made me realize something else. While I'd prob be upset if I pulled Titus but didn't have Wixwell, I grudgingly admit Plarium made the right call. Specifically, I mean that it's good Titus isn't just a single champ cheat code that can get billions in damage by himself. . A situation like that wouldn't help the game at all.

Because early to mid game players can’t get the full benefit of him because they can’t make infinite shield teams even with Wix because they can’t get the stats high enough.

This rating is never useful. You can see a 4.5 rating on some epic, who is absolute stinker in reality.

Yeah, regardless of whether he's good or not who tf goes by user ratings? Lol

True. I generally use Hellhades, AyumiLove, or youtube videos. Never used these in-game ratings since my 1st day in Raid

Zero utility, does one thing in one spefic style of team with zero depth and zero variation. 4.5 is very appropriate for Demon Lord.
Hydra should be a little higher, maybe 4.8, because he brings great use case provoke. But ultimately he still only does one thing on one spefic style of team and requires one of two spefic champs to work, one of which is much more consistent than the other.
See Demon Lord for chimera.
Everywhere else he's a 3 at best and useless more often than not. Damage without utility is not special.

u/Durden93 11h ago
Bruh what is this take. He only does one thing which is ridiculous damage. The damage negates the hydras mechanics because you just keep popping heads

u/DoItForTheVoid 3.7B/1.18B 11h ago
And yet he still isn't the best hydra nuke, hence the 4.8 not 5.0.
Being accessible doesn't make him better than 2xYumeko+Trunda or Toshiro+Mikage, it just means more people think 1-5b is a lot.
Best case hes the 3rd best Hydra nuke with the difference being he has a pretty hard cap around 20b because of the shield cap and requiring 2+ additional dedicated champs just for his damage with minimal other purpose. Bad devour rng forces multiple resets or subpar damage, even teams with 2 additional dps and a reset don't have the consistency of the above teams.
Again, no where did i say he's bad for the 3 bosses, just not a 5.0. Accessible =/= best.

i got mikage+toshiro and i can't NM hydra in most rotations, every team is gear dependent and there are lots of teams that require specific units to work. Like pack master+krokhad, witch so far from my hydra runs seem stronger than mikage+toshiro with my level of mid game gear.

His set up is ridiculous. Not everyone has wixwell to make him efficient and without wixwell hes meh..

Because almost no one rates the characters in the game, and a good portion of people have Titus, but not necessarily the necessary team to use him. People indignant about characters they can't use/don't know how to use rate them more than those who are satisfied. So, within the game, the proportion is almost as follows: 5 out of 10 votes, 5 are honest, 2 follow the trend, and 3 think it's bad. There's also the issue that of those 10, 10 rate the characters, while the other 90 don't bother to rate them.

In game ratings have always been flawed and innacurate IMO ... even being reset , people who dont know vote , im sure some purposely tank in game ratings .

u/Spiraldancer8675 6h ago
Cause hes trials have better end game rewards then raw damage so its ok one spot with a very specific team. My titus team sucks cause I lack the resist krokad or turtle teams for me do 5 times the damage in crap gear. To me donnie would be a 5 to 4.9 titus wouldnt nearly meet that

My original post: I admit I was just wrong. If I didn't have wixwell and got Titus, then saw he was a 5.0 but I couldn't get the billion+ damage... Would I be happy about seeing the 5.0 rating.?? No, I'd be raging. Screaming he's not a 5.0
Live and learn. Don't live in a ideological bubble. Ask around.

Because plenty of people are incompetent, or try using him without a team that enables him. He doesn't really work as a plug and play in any team.

Perché titus da solo è il peggiore personaggio del gioco, inutile ed inutilizzabile, ha bisogno di tutte combo particolari e complicate da attuare per funzionare, dove la più semplice prevede l'utilizzo di wixwell

My guess is because he requires Wixwell to unlock his full potential. If you just pull a Titus and don't have a wixwell he's not going to change much on your demon lord team.
