Striker is the arc subclass of the Titan. Striker is the damage dealing specialization of Titan. It excels in solo-play and close quarters combat. The Striker's super ability is the Fist of Havoc. When Fist of Havoc is activated, the Striker leaps forward and smashes the ground beneath them, dealing massive AoE damage to all enemies around them. The ability can also be combo'd with player's jump to launch the Striker forward, creating a living artillery shell that deals colossal amount of AoE damage as they land. Striker has the Suppressor Grenade that can blind and disorient enemies.
