What type of destiny PVPer are you? To find out, I've broken down what I think are the most common PVP playstyles at the moment. This is just so the community can see what best to expect in the crucible! Here are my descriptions of each playstyle: [u]The Noob[/u] You are quite new and unfamiliar to the crucible, you use the weapons you scavenged from your travels and decided to check out the PvP side of destiny. You don't usually win games, but every match is a learning experience, preparing yourself for the journey ahead. [i]Also affiliated with the "casul" players, they tend to get a lot of hate from the rest of the community. Frequently crying in the corner after being told to "git gud scrub" they fall victim to the arseholes of the community. [/i] [u]The Camper[/u] Packing a Patience and Time and a scout rifle, you sit at the back of the map, awaiting your prey to line themselves into your sights. Unsure of how to use the left thumbstick, you net the lowest kills but highest K/D, feeling pleasure as your victims enact their rage through hate-mail. [u]The Handcannon[/u] He who aims shall prevail, you have taken an affinity to the Handcannon, gracing the battlefield with your finese and slight of hand. Making every shot count and watching heads role you frequent the battlefield with the Thorn, Last Word or Hawkmoon, pummelling your enemies with an onslaught of unfair advantages. [u]The Shotgun[/u] Having discovered the high-calibre power of the Shotgun, you have cast aside any notion of a primary weapon. You sprint the battlefield, boomstick in hand looking for unsuspecting targets to obliterate with a single shot. [i]Master of the close quarters, the shotgun is sometimes hung up and replaced with a fusion rifle, extending the one-shot party across range.[/i] [u]The Rambo[/u] Machine gun in hand, you scream "Prevail or DIE!" as you sprint into unyielding groups of enemies to eradicate them seconds later. You rush without thought for anything but the mission and typically use Auto or Pulse Rifles paired with Heavy Machineguns to eliminate any trace of your adversaries. [u]The Ninja[/u] Using stealth as an art form, you take down foes with an unyielding finese. Striking without being seen you don invisibility and a tool of your choice to eradicate an unsuspecting guardian. You move when you see a chance, attack seen yet unseen and destroy the enemy forces before they have time to react. [i]Using your unholy amount of map knowledge, you can lock down areas and turn the tide of spawns at your will. Causing the enemies to move where you want them to, funneling them into their demise.[/i] [u]The "Pro"[/u] You use tactical thinking and battle strategy to completely destroy your foes without them even standing a chance. You choose the best weapon for the situation, adapting where necessary and following the plan to the letter. You are the person who goes flawless without exploiting the game, and are best suited to championships. [i]Also affiliated with lesser players wishing to feel good about themselves, the pro is often a guise of the skillless and a cloak to hide their shame.[/i] So which type of PvPer are you? If you feel you are a mix, post the one you have the most affinity to and reply with your combination! If I had to say what type of PvPer I was, I'd say I was a Handcannon/Pro combination. But I'd lean more towards handcannon! Edit: seems like I should have added a Jack of all Trades choice! Post down below if you feel this way! Edit: done some more tweaking to some of the descriptions! All in [i]Italics[/i] Edit: its nice to see that there aren't that many people who would consider themselves a "camper" :D either the community is lying or we have finally moved on from the CoD dark ages :P Edit: well we made it to 200 replies, I've officially won the Internet and beaten my previous best for amount of replies by about 198, so thanks alot guys! :D Edit: I've finally finished my second poll, so tell me; what type of raider are you?! https://www.bungie.net/en/Forum/Post/114000152/0/0

  • Handcannon I guess, I haven't used a thorn since it had 300 attack max. I favor a few scouts as well,

          • Def Hawkmoon and if I'm bored of that I run around with felwinters pissing everyone off. Or Swordbeeaker. And I just got an awesome new monarchy shotgun roll which will be the death of all of you!

          • The 'Slow Learner': You prefer to learn the ropes of the crucible in your time, not anyone else's. Your kills are a mixture of panic supers and blind luck, and your k/d couldnt be lower if you buried it in the Mariana Trench. But you intend to have fun and learn the mechanics as you go, knowing you will one day reach the lofty heights of a 1.0 k/d. For now you suck, but eventually the world will be yours. Somewhere in there is a description of me :p

            • The noob right here. New to console shooters and I haven't played an arena shooter since UT99 so it's taking some getting used to. Last PvP shooter I played was Planetside 2 with a bit of Tribes Ascend thrown in, both completely different and on PC so wasn't exactly good preparation. I don't cry in a corner though. People talking verbal excrement doesn't bother me in the slightest. I just enjoy the times I kill them and they have to live with the fact that they died to a complete and utter nublet. My best moment was when I got my Titan to 17 and joined a clash match. 19 kills with shoulder charge and my team won. The noob cheesed his way to victory and irritated a team of 30 - 32's.

                    • Pro because I get 30+ kills and 2.0+ k/d quite often and change subclass, weapons, and armor depending on the map. Plus I don't hack to make myself feel better at the expense of others unfairly.

                    • Change "camper" to "sniper". What we do takes more skill and patience than anyone. Shotgun/ blink combo is just straight up dishonorable/noobish.

                    • Don't have the highest kd, but i don't care. I'm here to win. Plus I'm usually first place anyways.

                    • I am not that great in the crucible but I don't really stick to a specific type of play style and I adapt and constantly am switching weapon around to best suit me in each match so by your definition I would fit in the Pro category but with an overall KD of about 1.45 I would not consider myself an actually pro at crucible.

                    • The only reason I went for "pro" because there wasnt a haggard veteran option. Maybe I should have gone rambo my k/d shows I am a run n gun style player. What ever is said playstyles should change for your opponents and map/gametype.

                    • Blend of hand cannon and pro. The hand cannon style describes me, but I'm usually packing Bad Juju

                    • I don't really play PVP but when I did, I was doing it for an exotic bounty. it required me to use void damage and my fusion rifle was the only thing that I had to use at the time. Once I started using it though, I fell in love. 1-2 warm up rounds and then I was leading the scoreboard match after match after match. I probably played 20 matches of control and lost maybe 2-3

                    • A pro sniper category needs to be added. I run around tactically with my rare snipe that has snapshot and shortgaze SLH-10 scope and quick scope anyone when the situation calls for it. The situation would be anyone at a range not comfortable for my TLW. I usually have highest k/d and at top of leader board and half my kills will always be from a snipe. And Yes TLW is OP, I used to use Suros, but nothing is gayer and takes less skill than blink shotty. TLW and throwing knife best counter
