Make Titan be damagable only by basic attacks

[JohnnySince]

As title says, this is what bothers me with smite most is how titan is just a piece of cake in the late game, few abilities and he is gone. Its just not fun or not challenging to kill Titan. Some gods can kill him solo even without minions. In my opinion they should change it so he is only damagable by basic attacks.

God no, that would make the game lasts much longer. The Titan has more health if more structures are up, so you already have to destroy a fair number of them to make the Titan easy to kill. Even then, YOU are there to defend the Titan and towers. This would just make it near pointless to even defend.

Also makes some characters next to useless once the ADCs are dead.
All you would have to do is kill the Hunter, and your chances of surviving drastically increase. Other characters would struggle to kill it with basics only with the enemy team there.

Even if you get a deicide you'd likely struggle to kill the Titan in time if the enemy didn't all die together.

The whole point of taking someone like Anubis (for example) is to burst down objectives - Titans included.

Sure, let's make ADC's even more important. Hell, we'll end up with triple hunter comps which would be oh so incredibly fun.

Yeah but what is the point of defending titan when it goes down in like 3-4 seconds, or how do people defend titan when Ah Puch or Vulcan ults. It would feel more rewarding to win games when there would be sense of defending or fighting the titan and not just spamming ults + abilities to get it down asap

i say make towers do more damage so its harder to get to the titan

And go back to the annoying tank meta we had before?
Making towers do too much damage means you can just sit there doing nothing all game because no one can dive you easily, forcing teams to have more tanks to make up for that.

As for Ah Puch etc ults, get your Assassin, or Warrior to go in and distract/kill them where possible.
The game has to end at some point, and those kinds of abilities are the way to do it. Otherwise you just kill the Hunters and the enemy can't win in time.

anubis ulti kill instant the titan his ulti do 6000k damage on him

i really don't understand why everyone comes to the forums to talk about something that is bothering them and why it should be changed without even thinking what that change could mean for the game. have you even thought of what you are asking?

lets say for example 2-3 members of your team are dead and the only ones left is lets say an ah puch and a geb. how are they gonna kill the titan with basic attacks? it would take such a long time that even with the titan at half health already wouldn't be enough to kill it before someone respawns to defend. that would in turn make hunters and assassins unplayable because they would get so heavily targeted that it would make it impossible for the players to play the game which in turn make people either get multiple hunters/assassins or grab like 3-4 heavy burst mages every time to kill enemies fast and start autoattacking the titan. not even gonna talk about the ragequits skyrocketing among other consequences that would come with such a change.

don't get me wrong, i've lost many times with 1 second left before respawn where i could easily defend and it feels bad but you know what? that was my teams fault for allowing the enemy to get to that point. if we had played beter we would be the ones at the enemy titan.

now if you had suggested more hp, more defence or something like that i would be okay with that, in fact i strongly believe it needs at least more damage and the towers/phoenixes need to be stronger. I almost never call someone out (attack) for something he suggested, but dude.... what you suggested... that was some stupid sh!t right there.

pls do not suggest a change without thinking of the consequences first. of course something like this would never be a thing and if the devs where ever to mention something like this even as a joke social media would catch on fire but still...
