It’s about time we labored out which Destiny 2 class is the great one. Next week, Bungie’s space-wizards, stellar warriors and, uh, moon hunters are participating within the Guardian Games, a limited-time occasion that has every class battling out for brand new gear, snazzy weapons, and the prospect to win bragging rights over their Guardian compatriots. Don’t fear, although. The greatest Destiny class continues to be the one you (sure, you) play.
Unless your aspect loses. Them’s the breaks.
The Guardian Games (official site) kick-off on April 21st. As far as I can, it’s principally immortal astronaut Olympics – proper all the way down to the colored rings on all of the iconography. Well, if we are able to’t have the actual factor…
Every day in the course of the occasion, you’ll be capable to choose up challenges from Zavala and Eva, incomes factors and day by day rewards to bump your respective class up the leaderboards. New Sparrows, a shocking new Exotic Machine Gun named “Heir Apparent, some snazzy get-up in your Ghosts.
There’s even a brand new set of “metallic” class objects too, that shift between gold, silver and bronze relying in your present class standing. At the tip of the occasion, these colors lock – get the gold, and it’s yours ’til subsequent yr. But hey, perhaps gold’s a bit garish in your present ‘fit. What if I’d moderately be a runner-up with a slick silver go well with? Well, you’d nonetheless be lacking out on a “permanent reminder” within the Tower, letting the opposite 2/3rds of the game know that your lot means enterprise.
Granted, not all Destiny courses are evenly distributed. Hunters (objectively the very best class, on account of the capes) outnumber Warlocks a good bit, proper? Well, Bungie have confirmed (via Forbes’ Paul Tassi) that beginning inhabitants is taken into consideration when calculating scores. If your class isn’t fairly as widespread, you’ll discover your contributions swing issues a little bit bit greater than the blokes in cloaks.
It’s an attention-grabbing twist on earlier Faction Rallies, lending some mechanical weight behind your group alternative. The Guardian Games start on Tuesday the 21st and runs ’til May 12th.
