Destiny 2 - Clan Link 1st Post

Just joined the clan and downloading the game on PS4. Should be ready when I wake up. Anything new or stand out as good info to know before starting?

Take your time, enjoy the game. You will be maxed out in what feels like no time. People that rush through are now people that complain about a lack of content.

Also, play Hunter because the jumps for both other classes suck a bag of dicks.

hunters are the weakest class in PVE though, warlocks are probably on top although titans are pretty strong as well especially in nightfall but 4-5x warlocks in the raid is OP as fuck. not sure about trials though, invis for hunters is really nice but blink and speed/melee range on warlocks is pretty OP

Hunter abilities could use some fixing but I've never felt weak. Golden gun can drop 30-50% of boss health in a single shot, arc super can stunlock bosses, shadowshot can generate mass orbs. Dodges in general are whack (needs i-frames) but triple jump is life.

I main Hunter and I've cleared all content. I have Lock and Titan too and still prefer Hunter in everything. Just wish they still had blink.

Titans have the best jump for PvE, Hunter probably the best for PvP. Warlock jump is aids in all facets of the game
Warlocks have the best class ability with rifts, not even close.
Supers all have their place, but personally I like warlocks the best (except for solar which is trash). All classes have good ones though.

Blink is the fastest movement, at least there's that going for it. Kind of annoying when you need to swap it out to jump up onto something though, I'll give you that. I'd agree that titan is the best overall though, but I don't understand why so many people seem to prefer the max control jump to high jump; I never use anything but high jump myself.

I like hunter the best overall by a pretty large margin though. Arc super with Raiden Flux equipped can murder almost any heroic PE boss solo, and the damage+stunlock allows the rest of the group to go nuts on strike bosses too. I find it does anywhere from "a lot more" to "vastly more" damage than any other super in the game. Nightblade would be cool if I had Orpheus Rig, but that's one of the few exotics I still haven't had drop, and it sucks that tether doesn't do a damned thing to bosses that matter. I've always hated golden gun, and it's rather silly that people avoid unlocking the six-shot because it's an overall negative change to the super, but I guess it's fine for when the arc super will get you killed.

Celestial Nighthawk still exists, I use it when I play Gunslinger. Not sure what the multiplier on it is, but it takes about 1/3 of the life off of a D2 NF boss with solar burn. Actual max damage is probably much higher than that but D2 seems to place a cap on everything.

hunter arc super in pve is amazing. it does the most damage out of all of my character's specials.

Unfortunately, without that exotic grenade launcher, the six shot spec is the only way I can solo watcher rooms for raid chests. Fire one rocket, dodge, fire second, trigger GG and double tap the remaining two.

Heh, Prospector is the only exotic weapon I don't have either.

They really need that helmet back from D1 for 6x damage on golden gun for PvE. I remember that shit one shot nightfall bosses during solar burn.

Celestial Nighthawk? It's in D2, I have it. Does 500k on Calus.
