Monarch is extremely basic compared to other titan's. However Monarch is a three way support. Gunner, Artillery, Medic. You can out fit her class for one of these 3 playstlyes. However she doesn't replace other playstyles of other titans. She is extremely viable on harder difficulties for giving shields. On lower difficulties she viable for her extreme damage output and ability to kill. She directly counters enemy Ronins, Scorchs, and Arc titans. She can rip through enemy defenses, attack nuke titans with relentless assault, give extreme endurance to the team, and easily defend against the most aggressive titan AI. She is far from useless.
Played master level 20 still pee pee poo poo. Healing is stupidly useless unless you planning for everyone to hug you all day so you can smoke. The AI shoots from afar and it's dammm hard to maintain more than 1 titan shield constantly due to how much you give and the size and 3 lanes of the map. Damage..... You mainly just good at taking out sheilds which it's good cause in master everything has sheilds but you need arc rounds from Apex but that is unreliable as if you lose your Titan your next upgrade is rockets so ya have fun. Her smoke rush well unless their nuke titans then ya it's out of the window cause the AI easily just dodges out of the smoke. She ain't completely trash I don't mind having 1 monarch in the team (if their actually playing support) but if it's a dream team no way monarch makes the list
Oat Lerttanasarn This. If she kept the upgrades after a round loss it would be fine. But if you are playing with a team that suck and lose a round you are so under powered.
I kept coming top of the four in frontier defense, with a high and equal balance of support and assault, it's a pretty good titan for it, in my opinion at least
I mean out of the description in frontier defense stating monarch as a support Titan and her aegis upgrades being more based around her being played as a support Titan I'd feel like she isn't meant to be played as a offensive Titan but instead a support Titan who keeps her friendly Titans shield up this making them survive longer and do more DPS
Zimanator209 the thing is I really don't see much problems in keeping your Titan alive the only titan I say need support is Ronin and ion. Everyone else can ethier protect them self or Northstar case just do damage far away without taking any damage so support Titan doesn't seem that useful if he gave hp then maybe
Game Hunter well I mean I see your point and I'm not saying that's it's not disappointing that monarch ain't the best for frontier defense but I can see her being a very valuable asset on hard and above since shell be able to give her teammates Shields and I mean imagine plopping a smoke on a ronin who's in the face of a scorch you'd be doing damage on the scorch but also giving your ally ronin shield idk it is a little disappointing to see monarch not as useful as the other Titans but I do feel she will have a good place on the harder difficulties also maybe if you get her maxed out on her aegis rank she'll be better? She seemed to have some good upgrades along the way
I've been using Monarch all morning and I use nuke eject & shield amplifier with energy transfer, maelstrom and XO-16 accelerator...never top leaderboard in damage but I keep the ronins and scorches shielded pretty well when they push. If played right monarch will never die especially if ranked up in AEGIS
Kyle Siddell well if you pick over core you end up dealing more damage overall and not just that one instance. Ronin probably the only titan that should use nuke cause of his play style the rest should go over core so they can just pump out more damage constantly
you're supposed to SUPPORT your team not just you. you use the energy transfer to keep your team's Titans alive thus you all do good. also equip the energy theif to keep your energy up while your team's too. that's why monarch is labeled SUPPORT
the name of the game in Frontier Defense is to kill the enemy forces before they are a threat. Monarch does have decent damage but she lacks crowd control and her single target pales to other titans. Because Monarch lacks crowd control or large single target damage, she pales to the other options.
Eh, you'd be surprised how many people still try to run her on master difficulty these days, she isn't bad, but she just pales in comparison to other picks due to how her core becomes useless compared to every other titan and how bad her aegis upgrades are, that being said she is fun, I just wish she was better really myself and the title of "support" is really forced to her and shoots her more than anything else.
Monarch is a very powerful titan in my opinion. With maelstrom and extra smoke she can destroy nuke titans and shred throught health with her xo-16 chaingun(3rd upgrade). Also she can give friendly titans sheilds. Northstar is also beast.
Has anyone else max out their Titan yet cuz my scorch is max out and I'm gonna rank up monarch, legion, tone, and ion before moving on to hard/master mode
Every single Titan needs to gain Aegis rank and be properly kitted out to maximize their absolute potential in order to truly shine in this mode. Monarch with counter ready, Energized smoke and max Aegis has better area denial than almost any Titan. Let alone the fact the she becomes a healer, regardless of your core abilities.
To each their own tbh. I like Legion and Monarch the best. I saw this one vid about northstar being a titan slaying god in frontrier defense. I tried one game, died 4 times as northstar. But when I use legion or Monarch I can complete the entire defense of 5 waves, without dying once while still being quitte a bit offensive. People said that Scorch would be great in this mode with his AOE, tried that too, didnt like it either. Legion and Monarch are the only Titan I use actively in frontier defense.
BattlePro3 it just depends on play style. It's funny cause Scorch and NorthStar are amazing for me. Nearly every game I've played I've been MVP. They have very very good burst damage and you should play to that strength. To my understanding, you need to be more exposed as Legion and Monarch.
Hanzo, true you need to be more exposed as either of them, but at the same time they have the potential to do that. I havent been on hard or higher yet, wanna get some more upgrades first for either of them, but I imagine the Dreadnought upgrade for Legion where he has all his kits, will fuck shit up big time. But on easy and regular I can be offensive, especially with Monarch with Superior chassis. I just use energy thief to get back full shields and health whenever i can. legion can deal a large amount of damage in a short amount of time with hidden compartment, the kit I use. It all boils down to playstyle tbh. I've always been quite offensive and rarely rely on AOE or long rang engagement. Hell even with Tone I'll be fighting on the front lines.
Only thing I got to ask is how the hells name you lose Northstar 4 times lol I easily go 5 waves on hard without losing my sheilds. It's like seeing a guy with AWP lose to a guy with a shotgun from far range lol
Just to be clear not saying Monarch is completely bad but in comparison to the others she is quite lackluster ya maybe her support ability will pull her up but don't see a point when it's quite easy to stay alive on your own. And I know she can smoke sucide run but you only get limited amount of smoke so ya
Game Hunter you might have been using the wrong loadout for Monarch(?) I for one haven't used Monarch in Frontier Defense but the class that sounds most optimal(in my opinion) is: Overcore Energy Theif Arc Rounds Maelstrom(perhaps Rearm and Reload) And any Core Three would work
Roscoe Breitmeier ya I know that was the best loadout and I was just testing the new buff on the tracking rockets ( still sucks btw) but I think rocket racks, smoke, and chaingun will be the only way to go
Apolobananajoe I don't find tone the best when there scorch and Northstar around lol. So far find titans with the ability to hit multiple targets or just kill quickly extremely good. Tone is probably 5th on my list, cause he doesn't really do much special his sonar upgraded sounds good but I think ion will do much better job, with with splitter rifle and his laser core.
Game Hunter You are using the wrong kind of Monarch (IMO). To make her an absolute beast equip Arc Rounds, Speed Reloader (or smoke) and the last XO-16 based choice (the one that makes it a devotion lol). I've been running that and coming out too of the score board in frontier defence literally 19/23 (I've only played 23 games). If Im not first I'm second, but seriously monarch is really good.
My play style with monarch is an aggressive play style! I use Arc Rounds, Rearm & Reload & XO-16 Accelerator Mod. And I also use nuclear eject with Energy thief. Monarch is a very strong & reliable Titan as long as you use it correctly! Be aggressive but at the same time know when to back down.
RoadRunnrGaming lol that is not a aggressive monarch build it's just the legion snipe build and nuke? Monarch is the last Titan that needs it when it's core can keep it alive and stack smoke. Monarch is only good at support and tank, if you want aggressive use smoke and core that way it's faster to spam your core and reload the smoke charge. Monarch dps builds is just a crossover of other titans and a weaker version
Game Hunter I didn't mean to say that the monarch load out I choose is aggressive, I meant to say that, it's the way you use it plus that load out, I am saying this because in multiplayer sessions like attrition and bounty hunt I can easily take down 1 to 4 titans by myself, & by that time I already have my 3 upgrade core!
RoadRunnrGaming but still nuke is meaningless when monarch is all about survival and upgrading, also the loadout you present is almost a default for most but it's still similar to a legion but unable to beat a legion lol
I mean ya I'm using the rocket upgrade which sucks but even with the chain upgrade I don't find her that powerful in comparison and her core just keeps her alive and doesn't pull any damage
I've had more success with monarch than any other titan.
because you're bad
@@milkman1649 monarch is not op
@@milkman1649 u scrub
NorthStar and Scorch. Two words. Titan slayers. Best burst damage in the game.
Legion tho, it's pretty powerful in maps such as rise

right, and i use it as hard tanker with gathered smoke and XO16 upgrades & core shield restore. really risky, but it was useful still.
@@GameHunterDeathhunter What's the name of your Titan
agree, especially worst when losing the round and all her core progress have to start again from the beginning.

Northstar is pretty good in frontier defense, it can fit many roles, Offense (cluster missile) defense (Tether) and can quickly rotate around.
I used Monarch More than the other Titans, and I always made it in the top 3.
Nuke eject is really strong in this mode since you can get titans back pretty quick
Yep with the SMR you can get a titan in a few mags and a bit faster with the titan hunter kit
I've been using Monarch all morning and I use nuke eject & shield amplifier with energy transfer, maelstrom and XO-16 accelerator...never top leaderboard in damage but I keep the ronins and scorches shielded pretty well when they push. If played right monarch will never die especially if ranked up in AEGIS
Wait your main perk in monarch is ability to survive (which is true she usually the last Titan standing lol) having nuke is meaningless lol
i use nuke on every titan for FD cuz i can always take atleast a couple enemies with me if need be
Kyle Siddell well if you pick over core you end up dealing more damage overall and not just that one instance. Ronin probably the only titan that should use nuke cause of his play style the rest should go over core so they can just pump out more damage constantly

Yeah, no. The tiny amount of shield monarch can give to her team is nothing.
I just like to kill. I play Monarch, and forget supporting other Titans. I just am here to KILL. It's what I do.

legion: DOCTOR
manorch: ya voy
