Titan



The Titan strain are a variant of Chimera that highlight the limits of their evolution of the Human form.

The Titans are used as shock troops by Chimeran forces, and are often found leading the way in major attacks. Their size and strength enable them to wield extremely heavy weaponry normally found mounted on vehicles or strategic defenses.

Titans have no body armor as their thick and calloused hides provide ample protection against attack; this being said, headshots are known to speed the process of killing these beasts, but another (much more entertaining) method is to circle behind the Titan where possible and blaze away at the cooling apparatus embedded in it's back. Once a large amount of damage is dealt, the cooling aparratus on its back will catch fire and they will explode in a spectacular explosion of blood and gore.

They are speculated to be the limit of power a Chimera can possess before losing humanoid form, and require multiple human bodies to create.

The Titans in Resistance: Fall of Man usually carry the machine guns off Stalkers, and wear very little armour. In Resistance 2, the Titans come with a new cannon which fires massive firebolts, and seem to wear some sort variation of armguards.

Tactics
Titans are incredibly powerful and hard to kill. The Titans melee attacks can make quite a dent in your health, so staying as far away from a Titan as you can is suggested. The easiest, but more time consuming method of bringing one of these beasts down is to tag them in the head with a Bullseye and slowly take out their health. This will almost certainly waste a lot of ammo. A quicker method is to try and circle around the Titan and shoot it in the back, it's weakest spot. This strategy will take down the Titan faster. If you're playing Resistance 2, pull out the LAARK and take it out with a minimum of fuss.

Just remember to back far away from the Titan when flames erupt from it's back and a beeping noise is heard, because the Titan explodes with some force when it dies.

Resistance 2
Titans in Resistance have been completely revamped. They're taller, have more armor, have a stronger flamethrower, and have brutal melee attacks. See picture below.
