Why play titan?

[Moist Potato]

Genuine question. The other two expensive maps give the house like layout which is different and fun. But titan to me just seems like a large expense to run further for your loot and play in the same map as all the free maps?

Insight would be appreciated!

primarily, it's the easiest map to get loot out of due to the entrance's and fire exit's placement relative to the ship - hence why you'll often find people bringing an extension ladder there

you can just pile as much as you can get out the front door, then angle the extension ladder off the main entrance's edge and drop things down - landing said things essentially directly in front of the ship

one of the risks of lc is getting greedy and going deeper for more loot, since with more loot comes more travel time to secure all of it - which titan cuts out

you can get as much as you can find, pile it all outside the door, then dump it down in front of the ship for the terminal guy to bring in. there's less time securing which means more time looting, and said time is worth it because one doesn't have to worry as much about the trips from main to ship and back

Id also argue it could be because its the same layout as all the other maps, thats exactly why. Its the only tier 3 moon that is like all the other moons youv played. And like any tier 3 moon, it has superior loot. Its pretty much just tier 3 generic map, but thats the point

Keep in mind theres negatives to Dine and Rend, a big one being the lack of blast doors to use to your advantage, and travel adversities between entrances and the ship

Dine has a sweet fire escape location as well, but you 100% need the ladder for that

big money

You don't need it, but the jump takes time and stamina.

People also underrate how valuable it is to have fire and Main right by each other in the outdoors.

Best loot pool of any of the moons, fire and main are not far from the ship and are also very close to each other, the outside being so vertical makes it very easy to transport scrap the full distance down rapidly, and the outside spawns heavily favor dogs, which are the easiest night time enemy to manage.

Rend and Dine are a little more attractive now that things have been rebalanced last patch (Titan used to have no traps, and the masked are a fairly dangerous T3 threat), but for the most part you can simply play better to get more out of Titan than either of the other T3 options.

The only real downside at least from my experience is Titan tends to have a lot more Bracken encounters. But iv never once seen Giants outside, and Dogs on stairs are real easy to avoid, just jump and break your legs :D

Iv never personally encountered Giants on Rend/Dine either, but iv seen Leviathans. They do seem to have much more Coil-Heads and Jesters though, and iv personally seen the Ghost Girl far more on those two maps than any other, noticeably disproportionately so

yeah this is normal, the moons all have different spawn rates - titan for example, bracken's have the third (technically 2nd) highest chance, behind jesters and nutcrackers which both are tied for highest chance

the paid moons also have the highest chance of ghost girl, compared to free moons where she's either immensely rare or doesn't spawn at all depending on which moon

the wiki has charts for everything for each moon [lethal.miraheze.org], it's a fun read

[Rahro]

titan also has a chance of getting you the mansion map. I got the mansion on titan once

[Kivit]

Its where all the fun monsters spawn more frequently

Because it's funny

[Razaah !!!!]

Do keep in mind that falling to great a height will kill you now though !

[persistentPerfection]

+easier to carry the loot back to the ship

+entrances are close, more mobility options

+more loot-ish

-a little harder?
