What is Titan skating :|

Short Answer: Pressing the jump button constantly while running forward.

Long Answer: Using catapult for top speed, or control for longer bursts of top speed, you gain horizontal thrust by timing your jumps to propel you forward, rather than up.
By repeatedly turning boost on and off, you can force your jump to continue to thrust at its highest speed, which is at the very beginning of the jump.

Ice Breaker

Patience & Time

Out of all the weapons, why does P&T happen 3x? Hahaha

Also 3 Full VoG Hard netted me the following weapon:
Praedyth's Revenge (dupe)
CM

That's all!

I seem to have better results when skating with increased control on. I might be doing it wrong with catapult though.

Increased control actually is faster than catapult lol. The directional control actually factors much more in terms of your speed gains than catapult does.

Catapult sux. It should've been like blink for titans.

I have heard a lot of people say that.
Catapult is hard to get 3 bursts out of, but I am able to do it pretty regularly.
It is a hell of a lot easier with control though, and a lot more consistent.

I would suggest using control for learning, and if you feel comfortable doing it, try to use catapult to see how fast you can get going.

Maybe I am mistaken?
I tested it out a few times and it's felt slightly faster with catapult.
Maybe it's the fact that control lasts longer.

Anyone want to? I have GK Normal.
Iron Banner made me super broke and I want to buy more stuff! Goldspiral, Helm just because, and 2 more Etheric Lights. Oh and the Spear.

I'll have to try it out some more. I don't play Titan much but even half ass skating makes it much more enjoyable.

Titans have such bad ass jumps you can glide and jump to gain momentum some people use it expertly to hover over doorways and such.

Nice one stabie! Hopefully you get a good viewer boost as well from it.

I think I have finally gotten used to the messenger. What middle run of perks do people use? Even with lag last night I was finishing in the top 2 most the time. Rank 4.5 currently and only done casual IB this week. The grind to 5 is so easy. May even get my Titan to 3 tonight once I hit 5.

Also, DestinyTrialsReport any and all LFG people before you join them. I haven't found a K/D over 1 yet.

I am better in trials than I am in regular crucible. Gives me more time to snipe and do things without resorting to blink shotgun which I don't care to do.
