Aight boys, girls, mythical creatures, and everyone else. Lemme learn you some things about each sub class in this Rock Paper Lizard Spock game. Let's start with the arc classes.
ARC-
STRIKERS,
The hunters of the Titan class. You can easily spot them strictly by the fact that, THEY'RE, ALWAYS, RUNNING. From what? Dunno. To where? Probably a quick easy shoulder charge/shotgun kill. These guys, will always kill you in a 1V1, and I'm not entirely convinced that corners weren't put in this game just so these guys couldn't get a real quick easy kill.
STORMCALLER
MORE LIKE, "Mr. Imma snipe you from spawn with my Palpatine melee" this guys put the shock in shocking, and the shocking in "Oh my God, it's Y1 Bladedancers all over again"
BLADEDANCERS
You ever wish you could just always have your sword in crucible? Then this is the class for you!
While they aren't as scary as the OG ninja assassins they once were; they'll still make you feel like the unholy love child of Ezio and Superman.
VOID-
DEFENDERS
Every time you see a Defender in the wild, an angel gets its wings. These guys will be running "No Back Up Plans" no exceptions. In most cases these guys are fairly balanced, nothing too crazy; until you play any game type with an objective. Then they start screaming. "WELCOME TO THE THUNDER-DOME BITCHES!" As they put they're thought to be 'meh' bubble on top of you, your friends, immediate and extended family, and proceed to do to you, what Andrew Jackson did to the Indians.
VOIDWALKERS
You wanna feel like Harry Potter? You ever think about destroying entire villages of orphans with the snap of your wrist? Well, now you can! These bags of douche, will melt you faster than Jet fuel on steel beams. And you'll be powerless to stop them. They WILL have the ram on, and will probably be as tanky as a Titan, but with a Hunter level stupid super.
NIGHTSTALKER
IF YOU PLAY THIS CLASS, YOU ARE EITHER A BANE UPON HUMANITY, OR AN ANGEL. In Destiny you will meet one of two kinds of Nightstalkers, the first (and most prevalent) is the "Wombo, Combo" you ever play a class and think, "this class would be perfect, IF I had another grenade that also slowed and blinded people? Well guess what, if you wear the Silver plated bones of the giant space Geckos, and you can smoke, grenade, smoke the easiest kill of your life. The other type of Nightstalker is the kind you'll only find in Strikes or raids; you'll know they're on your fire team when the side of your screen is a scrolling feed of the amount of orbs they have generated.
SOLAR-
SUNBREAKER
You remember those giant turtle pricks from Super Mario? 'Corse you don't, you're twelve. Well, basically this class is them. They have hammers. That WILL explode as well as probably a team wipe. Basically imagine Thor, now replace the lighting with the fiery piss of everyone who ever fought pre nerf Sunbreaker. They will make the game look like the Hellish landscape of your standard college dorm, but on fire, as you so desperately pray to Vishnu that these lesser gods don't see you when you hear that "ting" that we all know.
SUNSINGER
You ever suck so bad at a shooter, that you didn't wanna play a shooter? Well now with Radiance you can play, Hot Potato with the souls of those lesser beings that thought that t-bagging your corpse was a good idea. As you rise back from whatever Hell you spawned from with a nice solar grenade for the entire enemy team as well as a win for your trials team. You bastard.
GUNSLINGER
Remember the golden gun from the old James Bond games? Course you don't you're twelve. (Wait? I already made that joke? Shoot.) Anyways, this class is basically "Try Hard" the class. With grenades that can scare the pants off Chuck Norris, and a melee that can light peasants on fire from a mile away. I bring you the giant flaming GG. When you pop Golden Gun, every single man, woman, and child becomes afraid of you. It doesn't matter if you are the almighty himself. YOU. WILL. DIE. As you pray to the Bungie gods that they don't make an exotic that gives the gunslinger more shots.
TL;DR find your favorite (or most hated) class, and tell me what you think.
Thinking of making another post like this, but about how to counter/play each class... stand by
Here's the new post about Hunters!!!

Scatter grenades with nothing manacles are what make void walkers awesome, not a big fan of ram. Before the duckwalker boots came out my nothing manacles never came off honestly. Great writeup though, looking forward to the next one

I think you're my favorite person on these forums
-
Lmao I will now yell "WELCOME TO THE THUNDERDOME BITCHES!" Whenever I pop a bubble in crucible.
-
[quote]You remember those giant turtle pricks from Super Mario? 'Corse you don't, you're twelve.[/quote] I literally laughed out loud.
-
I've now read (I think) all of your threads. I'm pretty sure you're now my favorite person on these forums. Please keep making these.

lol try hard the class
-
Achlyophage Symbiote gives that extra scrub-a-dub shot
-
I just use gauntlets on my warlock for the grenade boosts and hc loader for tlw... Hunter is always bladedancer with quickdraw for tlw and hc loader gauntlets plus tarantula. Titan is always striker or defender with armamentarium for suppressing or placing a conduit on the wall. No back ups are for scrubs, ram is for scrubs. Both are for shotgunning/pansy tactics.
-
Accurate except the voidwalker wearing the Ram... I mean it is a decent option, but I bet Nothing Manacles are more common
-
[quote]this Rock Paper Lizard Spock game.[/quote] [spoiler]nice Big Bang theory reference and I forgot how did that game go again was it Spock beats Lizard [/spoiler]

accurate aside for gunslingers. Gunslingers are "natural selection, the class". Ever wonder why you rarely see an unskilled gunslinger? Because either you suck at it and never try again, or you have sucked at it for so long you are finally able to use it well. Whenever I play gunslinger I tend to miss half my shots, and spend the whole time between supers wishing I was another class. Mad props to anyone who makes this class work.
-
About the warlock: oh my god it's y1 blade dancers all over again! Funny shit dude.
-
GS nades that make Chuck Norris cry? Lmao, a mentally retarded kitten wouldn't be afraid of them
-
That's fine if you don't like warlocks. I'll shit on you all the same.
-
Thunder dome!
-
striker class granados are ode. warlock meele is OP. hunter grenade and throwing knife were nerfed. striker & sunbreak are reducirlos. the titan is made op. and that stupid suppressor grenade is terrible in mayhem
-
Nice one :-)
-
Made my day
-
Lmao that defender part
-
This is honestly the greatest and funniest thing I've seen on the forums.

Edited by filwilliamson: 9/21/2016 2:43:40 PMJust saying, I main Voidwalker and I don't use ram. Other than that great post.
-
You know why people hate me in pvp? I always flash people when they invade my bubble.
-
Not a mention of regenerating shatter grenades (Void Walker)...suppose you don't know. For shame on you. You may as well say Santa Claus doesn't exist
-
Two words: Achlyophage Symbiote 4th golden gun shot
-
Cause you're 12. Lol.
-
Bravo my man, bravo.
