I tried the exact same build recently, but experimented with other grenadier weapons since the epg just wasn't workin for me that day. smr and cold war are solid too, softball is hard as hell to use for anything but anti-titan and a-wall
@@knightbewion I personally find the soft Ball the easiest to use after the epg. Try it, it is really fun, especially on maps like glitch where it is easy to gain the height advantages
@@knightbewion With the softball you always want to come from above, when on equal footing, you are on a disadvantage. Personally I love the softball (my main gun), but it indeed is a gun which requires a very specific playstyle that no other gun has, and therefore it can be tricky to get the hang of it.
I've never tried making a something-specific build, but goddamn, thunderbolt is so good for the titan-build meter. If there's even just two titans next to each other, the hit markers the lightning can get you is ridiculous. Firestar is something I use alot as well, mostly on pilots, but sticking a titan, especially in the face, is so good
I'm glad you made a video about this. I get a lot of crap for running cloak but I never camp (which it seems a lot of cloak runners do) and it is very effective against titans.
@@bayetelee6210 It's against every natural inclination for me. I'm a rusher by nature in fps' and this game is all about motion and angles. It's counterintuitive and I imagine it would be super boring to camp.
I’ve always thought that stim was way stronger than all of the other options, including grapple. You struggle to gain vertical height as quickly but the easy/ unpredictable movement and increased health regeneration makes you really hard to kill if you know what you’re doing
I always swap out between SMR and Softball. An amped Softball can do nutty damage on titans and it has enough utility to efficiently clean up AI in attrition. Thunderbolt is good for grouped up titans in a corridor/corner but I always just find myself going back to Charge Rifle for that single target damage (and pilot sniping).
Thunderbolt is my favorite AT weapon. When you're leading the enemy enough you can fire it, then Cloak before they get hit, sneak up and rodeo them. It also seems to "steal" Titan kills quite often.
I've loved using holo pilot since day one. Nothing is more satisfying than watching someone chase your decoy trying to execute it only to execute them yourself.
Most of the time I play Titanfall I have people using boring guns. People don't have variety. Spitfire or g2. Cloak or a wall. I came back to the game a few days ago and it's still the same. This game deserved better
I use different guns. I like the L-Star, Alternator, Cold War, Mastiff and Volt the most. I do use the G2 for more ranged maps. Also like to use the Car as well.
I usually run: Car or R-97 with mag extension and the mod that makes it able to sprint while shooting. (can't remember the name of it) or instead of using that I use the mag extension and quick reload. Any grenades Stim or phase shift Ronin or Scorch Ticks or amped weapons Fast regen Neck breaker or the phase shift execution I usually use the R-97 more because for me it's fun to use.
So good, I haven’t even thought about this build, but it makes so much sense now that you point it out. Still hesitant to drop my grapple, but I guess now it’s inevitable to try it out at some point. 😄
It's fun to be an A-wall with extra boost wall. It's good if there's a lot of enemies shooting at you. And it's especially good when you're being chases and shot at. Drop the wall and shoot away with CAR or epg. People get pissed off because they couldn't kill me properly whenever I suddenly drop it in whilst they're shooting at me. It's also good for annoying titans like tone.
Pulse Blade with Satchels and Ordnance Expert can create for some good japes. Plus, Satchels are really overlooked for dealing with Titans and Reapers.
My anti Titan pilot build is A-wall Sidewinder SMR with extended mags and speed loader RE-45 with gunrunner and extended mags Charge rifle with charge hack and extended mags Titan-hunter Power cell Satchel It’s technically my frontier defence load out but it works and I use it
Stim is by far the most OP tactical in the game, not inly is it a "get out of jail free card" like phase, it also alws you to abuse the physics engine with your gun out (While grappling you cant shoot). Grapple might allow for fast vertical (and horizontal if you slingshot) movement but its trumped by stims unpredictability.
This sounds like a good build for Frontier Defense as well, since there aren't enemy pilots, loads of enemy titans, and you want to be in a titan as much as possible. I don't know if tactical on guns does anything in FD though...
Just wanna share my high kill in your face build : phase shift mastiff wingman charge rifle and firestar or satchel with fast ability recharge and tactikill
Paper: I know you grapple mains have like, your couple favorites with like stim and phase...and grapple probably higher than the other two... My favorites lists: 1) Grapple 2) 3) 4) 5) 6) 7) 8) 9) 10) 11) 12) 13) 14) 15) 16) 17) 18) 19) 20) Maybe..like...pulse?
It's hard to listen when the whole time the only thing I can think about is when your gonna stop switching between grapple and cloak. Seriously, it's mind-numbing.
Well no sir imo it's phase shift,just cuz you can go full on aggro and get out if shits steaming,cook your frag or reload while phasing.....and if you know when to change course your opponent is at least a little off track when trying to follow your route......imo. But whatever suits you dude!
I feel you, i didn''t even unlock the execution that requires you to get cloak executions. But something about using it to sneak up on a giant robot and demolitioning with high explosive weapons and ordnance make it a different experience.
LMAO, I've been using this set up forever at this point. I mean come on guys, the game is 4 years old do the majority of players actually not test builds like this out? (Note: An enemy team with 2+ Cloak Pilots who are competent with their anti-titan via pilot combat just destroys teams.) Also you can't run an anti-titan centered load out like this without an Archer... The feeling you get when in Cloak locked on to an enemy titan not* shooting your Archer, but just watching them freak the F out since you've been locking on to them for the last 10ish seconds... (happy sigh*) It's the best feeling you can get in this game. Try and tell me different.
@@juliuszgodek6514 tbh, the DPS of the Thunderbolt isn't anywhere near the Charge Rifle or Archer. It gives off the impression that it's doing a lot since you see so many damage ticks on the screen, but you have to remember that each tick of damage is relatively small. It's also super easy to counter and prevent the majority of the damage.
The archer is the worst AT weapon. On paper, it looks good. However, considering how easy it is to dodge with a dash/sprint/walk right in practice, it doesn't look so good anymore.
Saying ZPT + turbo engine is the definitive kit for ion is a huge generalization. It's definitely the worst kit for energy management since it removes the ability to do the zero point laser shot which will save you more energy than zero point trips ever could. Many a competitive ion players prefer overcore + entangled energy (meta) over any other kit. Occasionally they'll sub in turbo engine, but with the way you can stall with vortex/completely deny punishes up to 10s, having another dash for repositioning becomes less important.
I’ve been having fun with my holo, Honestly holo is so fun in sweat lobbys just because all of the enemy team is thirsty and so aggressive for kills
Holo becomes scary effective and INSANELY fun when you learn how to properly use it
Yeah it’s been fun learning holo.
I use halo alot too
lol i always fall to holo
How do you capitalize on holo? I've been trying to get into it for a while but never really learned how to take advantage of tricking someone
My go to anti-titan kit for years has been: Cloak, arc grenade, epg, ree, thunderbolt, phase embark, and low profile
I use the epg regularly, so it isn't an antititan weapon for me.
I tried the exact same build recently, but experimented with other grenadier weapons since the epg just wasn't workin for me that day. smr and cold war are solid too, softball is hard as hell to use for anything but anti-titan and a-wall

I use the Cold War, ree, archer, a wall, electric smoke, power cell, and titan hunter
The fact that there isn’t a higher tf2 player count or another titan fall out is criminal.
The fanbase at large has been saying it for years.
Y'all too daym good at the game. So hard to get good with robot ninjas flying around at 100mph with autistic precision. That said, much respect.
Benjim
I'm flattered, but my aim is kinda meh. The only things I'm good at is movement and not dying.
hey it released on steam there like 12k players now
Benjim th-cam.com/video/f8YzEu54NR0/w-d-xo.html this guy helped me a lot I think this could really help you learn to slide hop at 300 mph
I’m not gonna drop the grapple but I’m still gonna watch
Same , I can’t change what I’ve been all along hahaha , swinging like spider man and running while I spartan kick someone’s from the back 😂
Same
I dont like grapple, I dont like planning ahead, I just use EPG and stim, quick dumb fun.
What is a grapple build that Ivan use because I’m bad
I've never tried making a something-specific build, but goddamn, thunderbolt is so good for the titan-build meter. If there's even just two titans next to each other, the hit markers the lightning can get you is ridiculous. Firestar is something I use alot as well, mostly on pilots, but sticking a titan, especially in the face, is so good
SMR with amped
Weapons does a lot of damage against titans. You can always get batteries from
Your enemy titans to use in your own titan.
I'm glad you made a video about this. I get a lot of crap for running cloak but I never camp (which it seems a lot of cloak runners do) and it is very effective against titans.
Thank you for not camping
@@bayetelee6210 It's against every natural inclination for me. I'm a rusher by nature in fps' and this game is all about motion and angles. It's counterintuitive and I imagine it would be super boring to camp.
Very true
Also this game you cannot camp either. once you kill someone, that guy gonna come after you as fast as possible.
I’ve always thought that stim was way stronger than all of the other options, including grapple. You struggle to gain vertical height as quickly but the easy/ unpredictable movement and increased health regeneration makes you really hard to kill if you know what you’re doing
It is. Stim's the most consistent ability, grapple just let's you abuse the game's physics.
I only use stim and phase. Mostly phase though lmao
also trying to track someone on stim, holy jesus.
You’re the number 1 when it comes to teaching new people
I always swap out between SMR and Softball. An amped Softball can do nutty damage on titans and it has enough utility to efficiently clean up AI in attrition. Thunderbolt is good for grouped up titans in a corridor/corner but I always just find myself going back to Charge Rifle for that single target damage (and pilot sniping).
Its super satisfying to hit a good snipe with charge rifle
@@aaz1010 you can say that again
Thunderbolt is my favorite AT weapon. When you're leading the enemy enough you can fire it, then Cloak before they get hit, sneak up and rodeo them. It also seems to "steal" Titan kills quite often.
I've been using the smr for ages in my Titan build, this looks really fun I'll have to try it out
I've loved using holo pilot since day one. Nothing is more satisfying than watching someone chase your decoy trying to execute it only to execute them yourself.

Keep up the Titanfall content! Not much quality Titanfall content creators left!
Finally bought this game and now I can rewatch all your videos with a new eye :D
It's awesome to see some more unique playstyles, I might try out these builds.
Cloak for Lyfe brotha
Cloak, win a gun fight because they can't see you, not because you outplayed them.
Michael Donnelly that’s outplaying them tho
I usually run:
Car or R-97 with mag extension and the mod that makes it able to sprint while shooting. (can't remember the name of it) or instead of using that I use the mag extension and quick reload.
Any grenades
Stim or phase shift
Ronin or Scorch
Ticks or amped weapons
Fast regen
Neck breaker or the phase shift execution
I usually use the R-97 more because for me it's fun to use.
So good, I haven’t even thought about this build, but it makes so much sense now that you point it out.
Still hesitant to drop my grapple, but I guess now it’s inevitable to try it out at some point. 😄

do you think a pulse blade would destroy a satchel? I never thought about that.
@@TheHawkman2132 Neither have I, I'll try that when I get the chance.
My anti Titan pilot build is
A-wall
Sidewinder SMR with extended mags and speed loader
RE-45 with gunrunner and extended mags
Charge rifle with charge hack and extended mags
Titan-hunter
Power cell
Satchel
It’s technically my frontier defence load out but it works and I use it
I once shot a satchel charge out of the air while in my Northstar. Coolest moment ever.
Stim is by far the most OP tactical in the game, not inly is it a "get out of jail free card" like phase, it also alws you to abuse the physics engine with your gun out (While grappling you cant shoot). Grapple might allow for fast vertical (and horizontal if you slingshot) movement but its trumped by stims unpredictability.
I’ve been playing with a similar load out for a few months now... I can vouch for the enjoyment.
WHAAAAAAAT Paper finally using that SMR??? Dude about time
This sounds like a good build for Frontier Defense as well, since there aren't enemy pilots, loads of enemy titans, and you want to be in a titan as much as possible. I don't know if tactical on guns does anything in FD though...
I use cloak. Along with the other abilities. I like to have each ability in different classes. Unlike most people I don’t use cloak to camp.
I was so confused at the start when you ejected but then I saw the evac ship
Just wanna share my high kill in your face build : phase shift mastiff wingman charge rifle and firestar or satchel with fast ability recharge and tactikill
Maybe add ronin for flava
The best tactical is using pulse blade for pilot kills
or a lucky phase shift into a pilot
getting the pulse blade execution was the most annoying thing in titianfall for me but so worth
It's so uncanny how this is just like mine.I use cloak with a sidewinder, wingman,electric smoke, thunderbolt,hover,and faster Regen
Kit I run with no problems typically averaging 10-20 kills a game is
Pulse
r101
p2016
MGL
low profile
fast regen
frag
When you realize that the grapple pilot and phase shift pilot are swapped and phase shift is next to the grapple icon and vis versa
Just thought I’d list my load-out:
Pilot: Holopilot
Grenade: Electric Smoke
Primary: Kraber
Secondary Weapon: RE-45
Meta in Europe at the moment:
Stim, CAR/Spitfie with gun runner (idk why), fire stars, and low profile
I actually used a set up similar to this to max out my pilot executions. Waaaaaaaaaay too fun
I really like Titanfall 2 but sadly there are only like 3000 people online when I play
phase embark and low profile are the only 2 kits worth getting
Lol, I play LTS and Titan Brawl only, and this is my build with EPG and fire star.
i like using pulse blade because it's like being a *normal* super soldier
also throwing knives are badass
Paper: I know you grapple mains have like, your couple favorites with like stim and phase...and grapple probably higher than the other two...
My favorites lists:
1) Grapple
2)
3)
4)
5)

SMR+AMPERED WEAPONS=TITAN KILLER
Is it just me or did Any one else notice that phase and grapple were swapped in the thumb nail?
Holo in small maps in fun because of how much it pings the radar
Yooo why are grapple and phase inverted in the cover pic
wow, I usually use this exact build with the e wall pilot (usually in frontier defense). using it with the clock in pvp seems very funny
Perfectly crafted with care?
Lol thats literaly my LTS loud out .
Interesting build. I Will try it but i Will change the REEEE to the P202016 because i cant use it.
:)))
The reason I only use a Grapple and Stim (w/shotgun) is because they can be used anywhere.
It's hard to listen when the whole time the only thing I can think about is when your gonna stop switching between grapple and cloak. Seriously, it's mind-numbing.
You said a little less than a month ago that you were just starting the campaign, I was wondering if you finished it yet?
I saw a video where a guy destroyed a titan with a devotion and amp wall. Be something to look into if you want to give it a try
I use stim and grapple mainly stim is ok and I occasionally use pulse blade
This was literally my first TF2 build before I used Grapple lol
This is great, I wanna try it!!!
Hover so you can attack the titan from suprising locations
Holo-pilot, r-99, re-45, arc launcher, health regen, phase embark= profit
Personally I prefer the EPG against titans, but I might have to give the SMR another go before I can confidently say the EPG is better.
Laved the video but why are the grapple and phase shift pilots switched in the thumbnail
Spider man who
Tf2 just went on sale on steam... 30gb qn hour n half later n i was finding games easily!!! Hope it stays alive for a few months at least
I would love more build videos.
Do you use advanced look controls? If you do how would you recommend setting them up?
God why did they give the smr such a bad hip fire cross hair
This or Grapple + Firestar on larger maps. 👌
Can you show us your grapple loadout
Tell me why he hasss 27,831 c but I only have 50 and is happy with it
Ion works with grand cannon and overcore
Holo pilot main here!!!
mix in sum amped weapons with all that and you got yourself some titan bone hurting juice.
>cloak and satchel
but thats what i always use for everything
How would you feel if grapples were a core mechanic with other abilities being allowed alongside it.
That would be straight up CANCER
Holo pilot is still the most fun
Stim is the best ability and nobody can prove me otherwise.
(Grapple has never been a thing for me , I dunno why)
I run low profile on all my builds so that isn't a problem
yooooo i have the same excact loadout for anti titan except my thunderbolt has faster reload and fast ads
no way we have the same excact things 😂
So you're saying that there's something else other than cloak?
How ya doin Paper?
NOOOOO! Don't give up the free battery loadout!!!
Well no sir imo it's phase shift,just cuz you can go full on aggro and get out if shits steaming,cook your frag or reload while phasing.....and if you know when to change course your opponent is at least a little off track when trying to follow your route......imo.
But whatever suits you dude!
Titans can pretty easily track you through phase, and you can't really position with it well
@@gagetheweasel2443 well for me it worked great till something like G30,then i thought i needed a second go with grapple
Cloak is literally the only tactical i dont use. its just not really a fun tactical for me.
I feel you, i didn''t even unlock the execution that requires you to get cloak executions. But something about using it to sneak up on a giant robot and demolitioning with high explosive weapons and ordnance make it a different experience.
@@PaperCut2UGaming yeah for sure, i have a loadout pretty similar except i use amp wall instead and the p2.
Use it with nuke northstar
Is someone willing to buy a poor ass gamer this perfection of a game
You can stop swapping between cloak and invis, We get the point.
I think cloak would be top tier if it lasted like 5 seconds longer and shooting didnt reveal you
I have the same kit as you lol
LMAO, I've been using this set up forever at this point. I mean come on guys, the game is 4 years old do the majority of players actually not test builds like this out? (Note: An enemy team with 2+ Cloak Pilots who are competent with their anti-titan via pilot combat just destroys teams.)

Interesting, but thunderbolt is objectively THE meta anti Titan
I enjoy using the archer when I want to challenge myself by differentiating my playstyle
@@juliuszgodek6514 tbh, the DPS of the Thunderbolt isn't anywhere near the Charge Rifle or Archer.

That is the exact same build I use
I use grapple cuz i like the look
Phase is the best change my mind
tbh i tried this but it kinda sucks
I like to kill Titans without cloak its challegin not effective but huge fun
And yeah okay i'll try it🦄
Best Anti-Titan is Warpfall
Saying ZPT + turbo engine is the definitive kit for ion is a huge generalization. It's definitely the worst kit for energy management since it removes the ability to do the zero point laser shot which will save you more energy than zero point trips ever could.

where my kraber homies at? 😔
with the stim of course
