I'm building a jun, it's going to have redeemers, because titans are going to get QS i'm not going to use it for hunting titans.
I'm relying on my rocket kid, tazar lance and trident bully to fight the titans.
When you look around and see titans what are you all turning to?

flamethrower and punisher builds. Titan Quantum Radar is only 350 so you can still run viper jun.

First thing I look for is suppression or lockdown.
Hang 1 has Tempest Behemoth if Nodens can't hold it down
Hang 2 has Rayker and Nightingale if Arthur can't last
Hang 3 has Ming...but Calamity Bulwark and Punisher Ares can hold some ground too
Hang 4 has shredder pulsar Mender and a beefed Lance to hold it down, if Kid goes early...
Hang 5, if gekko Quin didn't make half red team drop, has Viper Weyland to dish out some DOT and support other Titans, as well as Kid..
Generally speaking though, I open hard, get the beacon advantage, and generally win anyway. If the game doesn't open well Titans are the least of my concern.
I use speed and agility, will more than likely have Titan available after 1st or 2nd bot, because I'm on top of beacons I often get the choice to drop first Titan. Sometimes I will, sometimes I won't, because that typically causes a response drop - if they have it. I don't want to be that guy, but my Titans are near stock, so whatever. At the same time, if I keep doing that, I don't get a chance to use my other bots as much, so I try not to. I win plenty of games without having to do so.

Loki - Cap them beacons!!
Even when the Titans get Quantum Radar Loki will still be viable. Ao Mings like to safely hover at 600m and zap bots. No way they're getting close enough.
Arthur and Titan are a problem but Kid already avoids them due to their AOE attacks. I'll just give them a slightly wider berth.

Rayker/ Dragoon or Ancile/ Stings Ao Guang/ Molots / lockdown ammo and skills for 15pc and extended duration Weyland / Avengers
It is really hard to get the weyand in the right place at the right time in domination games. Climbing would help a little.

I haven't run Ao Juns in a long time but Avenger Ao Juns and Glacier Ao Juns seem highly excellent. That's what comes after my Ao Ming anyway. 2.12 Avengers are cheap to level and do extremely good damage. Here are some of my better Titan Slayers: - Ao Ming with Vengeances and Cuirassiers, skilfully used
- 1.9 Ravana with 2.12 Storms @ close range
- 2.5 Fenrir with 2.12 Sharpshooter Avenger and Punisher Ts @ 500m
- A tiny little black 1.9 Ardent Blitz with Shredders @ 500m from around a corner
- 1.9 Behemoth with Quad Glaciers, Double Phase Shift and Last Stand (preferably splashing from a safe location, or @ under 300m so they can't flee in time, using Phase Shifts and Last Stand as needed) - this is the hardest to use, but fun
My Leadhose Fenrir (best at 500m) and Storm Ravana (best at short range) have slain many, many Titans and can kill multiple Titans per match. Ravana is the easiest to use and can grab / defend a beacon at close range in the process.
Shredder Blitz is a newcomer that seems able to use it's tinyness and stealth to it's advantage, as they can otherwise get shot down as quickly as a Leech. I can sometimes lock a Titan in order to grab it's beacon too (which can result in many reinforcements in Beacon Rush, and the ability to spawn something else too) Other mentions: - Pulsar Leech is good at annoying them with constant lockdowns from 600m.
- Flux Behemoth can zap them for 1100m when I have absolutely nothing better to play, or don't have time to close the gap before the match is over.
My Nightingale is good at suppressing Titans if I have it available, and fly into great positions to do damage and even land underneath Ao Mings so they can't easily fire back.

So far,my go-to against Titans:
Loki - Stealth + Adamant Road Hog Nightingale - Stealth + Brawling + Adamant Road Hog Ao Jun - Stealth + Avengers TFalc - Ember vs Arthur; better than you'd assume Phantom - Get beacons early and Titans can be moot Arthur - Fight fire with fire. I'm not an Arthur expert but this one is leveled enough to get attention. Leadhose build.

I drop either my Ao Jun or my AM. Predictable, I know.

TFalc - Ember vs Arthur; better than you'd assume Yup. I'm finding my Fenrir is excellent against Titans too. Titans might have Defence Mitigation but Fenrir/T-Falcon still have a stack-ton of Armor and Repairs to get through. Being able to splash adds a new dimension too...

If Arthurs are pushing our beacons, Avenger Ao Jun
If I can maneuver around enough without getting farted to death, Loki.

I've found my shredder/avenger or full leadhose Rayker and Hades very effectively against titans. Well not so much against maxed plasma or taser titans, but those will get hurt on occasions. Also my regular mag Blitz is very good vs non-arthurs. Cryo Hover does a good support vs titans. Leadhose Ao Guang is also good if not in direct line of fire from titans. Anyways, leadhose is a way to go.

I like corrosion and stun weapons for titans, they're so slow that they're extremely vulnerable to being frozen in place, and having their health be slowly drained is one sure fire way to tilt the pilot into doing some dumb maneuvers.

Plain and simple ,it takes ganging up with help from other Blues to knock out Titans. Without good Blues helping your scratching them and going down.

My main one is Shredder/Punisher-T Tyr. I tend to save that for end of game to gnaw on Titans and try healing the ones in my team.
Also running Rime-Glacier Strider against them a lot. Good for capping beacons while whittling them down. Better against Arthurs than Mings but works on both.
Having some luck with Scourge Haechi against AMs but I don't consider it as much of an anti-Titan build as the other two.

Loki - Run for the Bacon Cryo Nightingale - Support and Beacons + a bit of Arthur counter. Tyr - Mostly for support, weapons build is in flux atm. Blitz - suppress and dance with Sparks... like a mini EDM clubber on the drug of the evening. Still only using the Aegis one... but soon the other will be leveled for 2x the fun Glacier Blaze Strider - Speed and GoT build is good against Arthurs. Storm Ravana

Spectre with pulsar/scourge. Pop death mark, stand there and hold the button. Sometimes there guys with the 600m weapons though which spoils the fun.

If it's a Kid or AM, I use my Viper Carnage or Avenger Carnage. Both have 500m range, and can shoot from cover by poking their weapons over a building or something. Due to the Titan's massive size, I don't really have to get closer than 450m to deal effective damage. Viper's corrosion is really good against Titans, and the Avengers raw damage output isn't anything to laugh at imo.
Against Arthurs, my Ember Carnage comes out to play. Find a good spot from cover and cook them. And due to their slow speed and the Ember's small AOE, I can hit them round corners as well. If Ember Carnage is out of commission, I go back to good old reliable Avenger Carnage. Try to flank them and shoot around the Shields if possible, but if not, just smash through the Shields.
Haven't faced too many Nodens, but this trio works against them fairly well as well.

Collating the data so far and there's a clear preference for leadhose punishers/avengers/vengeances and then ice, fire and corrossion are equally preferred. Using supression and/or lock down is just as popular as using stealth to attack and run beacons. Storm and tazers were less popular, which is a suprise as I found my tazer lance to be very effective especially against plasma mings. I've seen storms take out mings and arthur shields alike. Flux and molot/tempests got a few mentions, I get it, the long range options can devastate but they are very situational, fun too though.
So I have decided to make sure I have a decent leadhose lancelot in my shield bot hanger. In my main hanger I'm going to work on a flame fenrir, ice rocket nightingale and storm ravana. In my baby hanger I'll be working on a viper jun, glacier falcon and a pulsar/halo nightingale. Also each hanger will have a beacon runner and a healer to support blue titans.

Going by my observations, shotguns seem to do very good damage to Titans up close. - My Storm Ravana has killed full health Arthurs and taken their beacons.
And weapons like Leadhose and Shredder seem to remain accurate at long distance vs Titans. - I tend to use them at around 500m as some Titan weapons can deal a lot less damage at that range. It's convenient being able to attack them at long range too.
And Splash weapons like Fire & Ice weapons splash right through Arthur's shield. - A Glacier Behemoth can outright kill some full health Arthurs in a single salvo, even when aimed directly at their shield.

Normally my pulsar/shredder Tyr. Find a blue Arthur to heal and a red Ao Ming to annoy.

Maybe someday the Carney will get some more modules. Hope dies last. The good thing about the aegis is it blocks the plasma mings shots. I peeaboo the ?dookie? out of them mings. Step out, death mark the ming all the blues seem to be targeting, 90,000 hp dmg per burst. Carney could do the same just with a lot more risk. Works on arthurs and kids too. I know people think tridents are crap but I have an obsession with them that goes back to when triple trident furys were meta. Edit: I'm thinking of taking a 3rd trident from 1.10 to 2.12 and putting them on a falcon but the extra damage would come at extra risk. I'd end up putting redeemers or glaciers on the bully.

Ag hangar: Thunder Punisher Natasha. Thunders are brutal to Titans. They have always had a ton of damage potential but could never hit anything due to the spread. Titans have giant hit boxes that catch all the pellets and thr shot grouping skill further reduces spread.
Meta counter legacy hangar: don't have one. I have a Tempest Fury for Ao Ming but you end up standing around in your base like a camper and I don't like that. I'd rather die trying to get under one with the Thunder Punisher Natasha. That's always a rush.
