Check Out Titan on Destiny 2 Wiki

General Information

The Titan is the "tank" class of Destiny. Titans have 3 subclasses, Striker (Arc), Defender (Void) and Sunbreaker (Solar). Striker is the offensive and solo-oriented subclass while Defender is the defensive and group-oriented subclass. Titans have more armor and defensive capabilities than both Hunter and Warlock.

• You start off as a Striker and unlock Defender at level 15. Note: once you unlock Defender for one character, it will be unlocked for any new Titan characters you make in the future. Sunbreaker was released in The Taken King expansion. It is unlocked after completing the Titan quest: The Sunbreakers' Challenge.

Play Style

Strikers can turn their body into a living artillery shell with Fist of Havoc super. Strikers can disorient their enemies with Flashbang Grenades and go toe to toe with them in close-quarters with Storm Fist.

Defenders can create a defensive barrier called Ward of Dawn that protects themselves and their allies from enemy fire. Defenders are able to disable enemy abilities with Suppressor Grenades and create another, personal shield through Disintegrate.

Titan's jump ability is lift, a jetpack-like skill that boosts the player upward.
