The Volatile Commander - Best Sentinel Titan Build - Destiny 2
This build will cover what I believe to be the best Sentinel Titan build that currently exists in Destiny 2. It provides an impressive combination of unparalleled survivability and raw destructive power. I will not be detailing Seasonal perk options to keep this build evergreen.
Subclass
Abilities
Ability Icon |
Ability Name |
Explanation |
---|---|---|
Towering Barricade | Due to our aspects' nature, the barricade's recharge speed doesn't matter, so we're taking Towering Barricade for the increased area covered. | |
Strafe Lift | This is purely preference, I prefer Strafe but you can use High Lift or Catapult Lift if you want. | |
Shield Throw | We're taking Shield throw because it is an instant-use Melee that we can utilize from range. | |
Vortex Grenade | Vortex Grenade has fantastic synergy with our Aspects and fragments Controlled Demolition and Echo of Provision. | |
Ward of Dawn | Easily the second-best super in the game. provides amazing survivability, and a damage boost, and it recharges your grenade on casting. |
Aspects

Aspect Name |
Explanation |
---|---|---|
Bastion | Bastion provides Void Overshields on demand. It is easily one of the best survivability tools in the game. This makes our barricade have a fixed cooldown which is why we take Towering Barricade. | |
Controlled Demolition | This applies Volatile to any enemy we hit with either an ability or a Volatile explosion, which allows for some insane explosion chaining for impressive mob clearing. It also grants our Volatile explosions health regen for us and our allies. |
Fragments

Explanation |

Echo of Undermining | This makes our grenades weaken any enemies which let us do 15% more damage to them. | |
Echo of Remnants | This makes our Vortex grenade last longer. | |
Echo of Provision | This gives us melee energy whenever our grenade damages an enemy. |
Gear
Equipment

Gear Name |
Explanation |
---|---|---|
Witherhoard | Witherhoard is a straightforward great special weapon, it has good area damage, and can provide extra damage when using a Heavy weapon. It's amazing, use it. | |
Funnelweb | This is my preferred primary, get a roll you like and mow through some Hive with this bullet hose. Or any other primary you prefer. | |
Fire and Forget | My go-to Heavy atm is the Fire and Forget, it's solid damage and is extremely easy to use, point at their heads and fire. | |
Heart of Inmost Light | This is the single best Titan Exotic, it allows incredible ability uptime. Try and get a good stat roll and use it. |

Tactics
- So the goal of this build is simple, it's to cycle abilities to become an unstoppable gestalt of Void light.
- Try to start fights with your Barricade to get yourself a Void Overshield which also buffs your melee and grenade damage due to Heart of Inmost Light.
- Try to use your grenade on clumps of enemies to do big Volatile chains, and also use it on bosses to debuff them.
- Throw in some Shield Throws whenever you need them to make an enemy volatile or to gain some more Void Overshield.
- If you need to secure a revive, save yourself from death, or want to deal some big damage on a boss, then pop your Ward of Dawn, it is versatile and will save you from death.
In Conclusion
Thank you for reading this build. If you play Destiny then I know you know Lightfall will be dropping in less than two weeks and as a result of that you're wondering why I posted this. The simple answer is I am working on getting some practice with Article writing cause I'm going to be going hard on build-making when Lightfall drops. So look forward to more builds from me and as I already said, thanks for reading.
