27 Titan here and I felt the need to voice my opinion on the state of the three classes. No this isn't a nerf bladedancer or sunsinger self rez op topic. Those abilities are called SUPERS and should be strong, personally i don't thing they need any tweaking good teamwork takes care of bladedancer and sunsinger is pretty balanced.
This topic is about how Titans got the short end of the stick in terms of their abilities compared to the other two classes. titans have only one form of aerial movement whereas Warlocks and Hunters have 2 (and they both get blink arguably the best movement ability)and the one interesting form of movement (catapult) is so underwhelming that it just feels like the extra momentum you get is from lightly farting.
when it comes to supers we get some cool abilities but there are some pressing issues. Defender's Ward of Dawn super is great....unless someone else has a super. The bubble breaks down to nova bomb, and fist of havoc which makes no sense considering the tooltip is "creates an indestructible shield". As a purely defensive ability it fails to even be a trump card to enemy supers. This doesn't mean the bubble is bad it just doesn't feel as good as the other classes abilities.
Striker titans have their own issues with Fist of Havoc. So for context when a warlock uses nova bomb they are semi unkillable while in the animation, titans are incredibly vulnerable to getting killed during their animation even with the talent that makes you take less damage during fist of havoc. If warlocks can be beefy during super and they get to THROW A PROJECTILE why don't we since we have to get into people's faces.
Overall the titan's kit seemed to be over-nerfed and their abilities are lacking. Hell the population of the game even shows that titans just aren't appealing enough with them being the least played class. there's other issues like not being invulnerable in shoulder charge or even damage resistant, no crazy talents at the bottom of the trees etc.
TL;DR Titans need some help in the ability department to make them on par with the other classes I don't want to just be a bubble vendor in raids I'd like to be as cool useful as the other classes.

Honestly the fact that they can panic super and control a point w/ grenades, bubbles, one shot melees, etc. seems like they got just as much love as the constantly bitched about blade dancers
