help with survival build for Titan and Hunter

[Doforcash]

so i usually main Warlock with Karnstein Armlet, didn't think it's much of a problem since im having so much fun with it.

Then it hit me, changing to from Warlock to either Hunter or Titan equal to no continuous healing from Rift ability and the exotic itself (i die alot cuz i keep acting as a vanguard of the group).

so he's the noob question, any tip/trick and exotic that may help both class in survival like Warlock ?

Recovery mods, OEM (please don't use OEM in PvP tho) wormhusk crown, those are the best options

For hunter - Wormhusk crown, arcstrider bottom tree work really good for me. You have that neat dodge that also heals you up and makes you harder to kill, perfect for gunning around corners.

Sentinal gets health regen/overshield for punching things.

[Lusus Symphonia]

Crest of alpha lupi gives healing pulse barricades, it's a pretty ♥♥♥♥ exotic but itll make you survive.

Can also use crimson for safe PvE.

[Celestant]

Dont listen to anyone about OEM. Its fantastic for PvP. It really makes all of your opponent go for you only.

Apologies in advance for the incoming essay.

So as a main hunter I have a few builds across all the sub-classes that have been working fairly well for me. I mostly use middle tree gunslinger so I'll start from there. Typically (and this goes for arcstrider too) you want to play kind of aggressive and keep engagements in mid-short range so you can take full advantage of your throwing knives. Since you'll be fairly close to the action all the time it's important to stack up resilience or resistance mods on your armor. To get health back I run a recuperation mod (gain health on picking up light orbs) on a solar attribute cloak and use masterworked weapons like breakneck/recluse/21% delerium to generate all the orbs I need. Riskrunner is also a pretty good alternative to run just for the extra little bit of damage resistance when arc conductor is up or if you're feeling spicy you can run a sword like worldline zero to block some incoming damage or teleport out of an engagement. It's not ideal or optimal obviously since swords are kind of lackluster compared to nearly every other power weapon, but as someone who ran with a worldline for a while I can tell you it is incredibly fun. Exotic armor on this tree is kind of a toss up for me. Shards of galanor is very good as you can have barrage up often, so you can spam it to get out of many situations, but I personally like using the ophidia spathe just a bit more since the extra knife charge guarantees that you have infinite throwing knives up all the time. Now my other most used subclass is Arcstrider. All the trees have something useful for survivability like health regen on melee kill, blocking with arc staff or damage reduction on dodge so it all depends on how you want to play. Personally I think bottom tree with the Liar's Handshake exotic is the way to go. Damage reduction on dodge and health regain for counterattacking has proven to be a very reliable combo. Pair it with weapons that can synergize with the constant punching like a monte carlo and ikelos shotty and you're good to go. As for Nightstalker I generally focus solely on getting high mobility stats and using several paragon mods on my armor. For this class you want to keep engagements mid-long range. I typically use top tree because invisibility on dodge works really well as you can engage/disengage as you see fit. It gives you time to reposition yourself and prioritize targets or if you need to, you can use it as a "panic button" if you get surrounded and need to pop invis to run away. It's also great for getting clutch revives if you're playing with a team. If you plan to go this route then I highly HIGHLY recommend stompees as your exotic armor piece. The boosted mobility and jump height work wonders for gaining distance while invis and getting to different vantage points to snipe from.

I love my stompees tho

Just play and get used to the new class. Every class feels different and there's an adjustment phase. Basically, with a Titan, use your barriers instead of rifts.
As an arc titan, you basically kill everything before it kills you. A void titan might be more your style, since you can easily get overshields.
I really like Actium of War for sustained fire PVE. Saves you a lot of reloads if you have a good auto-rifle and MG. It's not good pvp.

Once you go stompee, you never go back!
