Destiny 2 Fan Club

[sublimevoide]

ooo d2!!!!!

1. I've been playing d2 for... two months I think!!

2. I mainly play on PlayStation, but my family shares it so sometimes I play on computer.

3 & 4. I main solar titan!! I legitimately could not live without my hammers-

5. I'm a sucker for SMGs, shotguns, and machine guns.

6. Unsurprisingly, Osteo Striga, Lord of Wolves, and Trespasser (it was my first masterworked exotic and I cherish it dearly <3)

7. I love all of them dearly, but especially Crow, Shaxx, and Drifter (and Starhorse!!!!).

8. Almost all three of my guardians & ghosts have names and lore,even if 2/3 don't technically exist in game yet. My titan is Cathaoir and his ghost is Aoifa, my hunter is Nianta and her ghost is Desmond, and my warlock is Simmons-2 but his ghost doesn't have a name yet. Cathaoir and Aoifa are affectionately referred to as melon and honeydew because they exclusively run the watermelon shader on every piece of gear they can.

Hello, welcome to the club!

Titan mains are fun. I bet you had a lot of fun with Solar 3.0 lol, especially if you were running a certain Loreley build :P

Your Guardians sound really cool and I love their names! Also, I love that your Titan and his ghost use matching shaders and have matching nicknames, it's super cute! Kind of reminds me of my Hunter Crash-5 and his ghost who I've finally decided to name Chrome, short for Chromium! Chrome always wears the Gambit Chrome shader, for obvious reasons I think lol.

Also, speaking of, I found Destiny 1 at my local library so I checked it out and I've been playing through the game for the first time! I made Crash so I'm also playing as a Hunter for the first time. I'm having a lot of fun so far! A lot of things are pretty different, especially the whole leveling system. But it's interesting getting to explore some places I've seen before in D2 and other places I haven't seen before, like the old Tower. It's also interesting to see NPCs there that are familiar to me, but also some that I haven't met before, like Cayde-6. I wasn't expecting to find Eris Morn in the Tower, and apparently she's already been using Hive magic so I guess she's always looked the way she does, at least as far as in-game timeline goes.

I've been really wanting to show off how my Guardians look so I've collected some screenshots to share with everyone! First, I'll start with Crash.

Here's his official appearance in D1. He actually has heterochromia, just pretend his left eye (his left, not ours) is green lol. My bf let me borrow his hunter so I made an outfit for Crash in D2 based on what was available to me. Crash plays electric guitar and sings metal and hard rock, so I tried to give him a look that best fits that aesthetic but also says "I kick butt on the battlefield". His cloak, which has a bit of an interesting backstory to it. It's two cloaks stitched together, with one being his and the other being that of one of his fallen fireteam members that he lost during the Red War. Finally, here's Chrome using his favorite shell and shader :)

Next up is Vinn and Google. Vinn loves dressing up and changes up her appearance A LOT (meaning I literally change it up with a new theme every month lol). There's been a lot of outfits since the transmog system dropped, but I'll just share a few of my favorites:
The first look I gave Vinn when the transmog system first dropped. I just thought the robes looked neat and built up a look around that pretty much.
My look for the first month of Solar 3.0 lol. Vinn's favorite colors are pink and purple, and one of her favorite shaders is Sunrise Warrior
snek
Inspector Vinn. One of the few times I didn't use pink or purple for one of her looks. I was going for a sort of "undercover detective" look. Really like how it came out.
I have a picture of Google using his favorite shell somewhere, but I can't find it. I'll have to post it some other time

Would love to see some screenshots of everyone else's Guardians and Ghosts, so feel free to share!

[Panne]

Ooh, So happy to see a Destiny fanclub! It's by far my favorite and most played game!



How long have you been playing Destiny/Destiny 2?


I've been playing since Forsaken! I have somewhere in the ballpark of 3.5k hours in the game ;o;



What platform do you play on?


I started on the PC back in forsaken, switch over to PS4 because my PC is... not good. Was lucky enough to snag a ps5 and thats what I use now until I can afford to build a nice PC of my own!



Which class do you main?


I'm a 100% certified warlock main! Love everything about em, especially how many insane grenade builds there are for us!



Favorite subclass?


Hmmm. Despite Solar being really overpowered right now on all classes, I really like void in pve for its versatility. And throwing nonstop sucky nades while annihilating everything around me (:<

For pvp, I really like bottom tree stormcaller, but I've been using solar this season because unfortunately, the long cooldown on stormtrance means I rarely get my super :/



What (non-Exotic) weapons/weapon types do you like? Dislike?


For pve, I love using smgs. Effective, fast, and can rip enemies to shreds in seconds. I like fusions too, though.

in pvp, Im a sniper through and through. I like a more precision based playstyle so anything like bows, hand cannons, linears is very rewarding for me.
Put a shotty in my hands and I'll fumble pretty hard lol (unless its a slug).



What's your favorite Exotic weapon(s)?


W i t h e r h o a r d. It's just the perfect weapon.

For pvp? Hmm, thats tough. I was a filthy lorentz user for a while in trials, but I didn't really enjoy it too much. It just helped me get easier wins lol.



Favorite character(s)?


Caitl! I love the depth of her character and how she puts on a tough girl facade, but through the seasonal stories you get to see her softer side and how she really cares about doing the right thing for her people and her allies.



Does your Guardian and Ghost have a name, and if so what are they?


I've honestly never considered giving my guardians a name, as I kind of just consider them an extensionof myself. So I guess all three are just Panne?

So excited to talk to all my fellow guardians! If I may, I'd like to add a question in myself!

What's your favorite activity/thing to do in the game?

For me, I think the thing that excites me most is doing day 1 raids with my clan. We haven't gotten one yet, but I hope to oneday be able to rock that sweet sweet Day 1 emblem! Otherwise, I enjoy doing GMs and testing my buildcrafting, as well as getting a little sweaty in trials (:<

[Restful Dead]

I'd say my favorite activity is probably the story missions if those count? I'm really invested in the story and lore and Bungie's been doing a really good job with their writing these past few seasons. Hopping on to experience the continuation of the season's story is the best part of the week tbh lol

If that doesn't count though, then I guess I'd say Gambit? Drifter may not be my favorite character ever, but he does do a good job of making me feel awesome when I'm doing awesome lol. Even though it's got a pvp aspect to it, I much prefer it over Crucible. That said, I do like Team Scorched as well since everyone's on a more level playing field there.

Raids and dungeons can be fun too, but that largely depends on the raid/dungeon. At least for me. It also depends on who you're running with too, I suppose. With raids especially it's better to run with a group where at least most of the people in the group know what they're doing lol

[Restful Dead]

Bump!

Who's having fun with Arc 3.0 so far?

[Restful Dead]

bump

[The wild one]

Almost kinda shocked to see a Destiny fan club here! I've rarely seen anyone with it in their profiles! Very cool :D

1. How long have you been playing Destiny/Destiny 2?

Uhhh, since the D1 Beta LOL. So that means 8 years now. I played Halo like a fiend before, so when Bungie announced they were moving on to a new project after Halo Reach, I was devastated. And then info started to trickle in about the new IP, and it looked cool, so I signed up for the Beta as soon as it was available. I played with some of my friends as well, and we had a blast running around the early Cosmodrome.

Vanilla Destiny wasn't really all that fascinating story-wise, but the characters kept me engaged. And the lore from the Grimoire cards was interesting to me too. Though now, I'm so glad they have the lore in the game, and not on a separate website. That was just so inconvenient.

2. What platform do you play on?

Started on Xbox 360, and then moved to PS4 when the majority of the people I played with were there. I then split my time between PS4 and Xbox One, because my now-fiancée played on the Xbone lol. Then everyone moved to PC when D2 came out, and I was left in the dust for a couple of years. Now I have a PC, and that's my primary platform! I haven't touched D2 on either since lol.

3. Which class do you main?

Warlock 4 life. I do play the other classes from time to time, but Warlock is my main. She has the best gear, has the highest level, and my other two just kinda... exist for me to raid on from time to time. But rarely bc lord, I hate the Hunter jump.

4. Favorite subclass?

Solar for sure. I like the Arc subclass second, and Void third. I really only bring out Arc or Void when the burn on the 3 strikes of pinnacle matches to them. Otherwise, I default to Solar. Often have to anyway, because as a Warlock main, I'm the support in raids or dungeons.

5. What (non-Exotic) weapons/weapon types do you like? Dislike?

Pulse rifles are my go-to. I don't remember the one I have as my current equipment, but I always just change around my primary to a pulse lol. I like machine guns, and my current one is the one from the King's Fall raid. Handcanons and sometimes shotguns are the others I use the most. I do not like fusion rifles. I find them unwieldy, and I prefer to shoot from a distance. I'll use one if I have to, but I'll moan about it.

6. What's your favorite Exotic weapon(s)?

Xenophage, Lament, Leviathan's Breath, Arbalest. Currently trying to get Touch of Malice bc I loved it in D1.

7. Favorite character(s)?

Mara Sov, hands down, is my favourite character lol. Petra, and Eris are close seconds. Oh, and Sjur Eido, but she's a lore-only character for now, so does she count? I'll say she counts lol.

8. Does your Guardian and Ghost have a name, and if so what are they?

My Warlock's name is Mara Keita, but she goes by her last name for... obvious reasons lol. She's Reefborn Awoken originally, but died over Mars on a routine mission (shot down by Cabal). She was rezzed a long time ago (she's not "The Guardian" in her canon), and has been around for a couple hundred years or so. Her Ghost is named Aliyah.

I have about a dozen OCs, though, mostly non-Guardian Reefborn Awoken. Don't ask about them unless you want a massive infodump on them, though, bc I can talk abt them forever. My main OC is Ronja Sov; She's Mara's only daughter, and Crown Princess of the Reef. I think she's in her early 20s for the current timeline, so pretty young for an Awoken overall.

My other Guardians are technically OCs, but they don't appear as much. My Earthborn Awoken Hunter is Ari, and my Exo Titan is Sagira-4. Their Ghosts don't have names though,

[cynicalstella]

1. How long have you been playing Destiny/Destiny 2?
Since D1! I was in 9th grade and now I've graduated college. I used to play religiously but you get busier in college, and now I almost don't play at all because I don't have my own PC, I use my brother's. I’m much more familiar with D1 than D2, which sucks because there have been an infinite amt of changes and I just do not keep up lol
2. What platform do you play on?
Started on Xbox 360, then had the xbone for a bit but we hardly used that unfortunately. Now I exclusively use PC.
3. Which class do you main?
HUNTER
4. Favorite subclass?
I am not super familiar with the changes, but nightstalker was always my favorite. Maybe it was the purple, maybe it was how OP it used to be.
5. What (non-Exotic) weapons/weapon types do you like? Dislike?
Like: BOWS!!!, hand cannons, scout rifles, some pulse and autos. shotguns are fine. swords are cool. the new not sword thing is cool. I dislike snipers honestly! Grenade launchers are also weird. Oh I absolutely hate fusion rifles. boooo
6. What's your favorite Exotic weapon(s)?
It's telling that the only thing I can remember is the gjallerhorn (sp). I believe the gjallerhorn was brought back but it's not as cool as it was in D1?
7. Favorite character(s)?
I like the gambit guy and some female characters whose names I conveniently can't remember. Like I said, I don't keep up! I am very much not a lore person. I do not care and I will look away. ERIN MORN!
8. Does your Guardian and Ghost have a name, and if so what are they?
naur

Honestly, I love destiny and it's one of my favorite games. It's super fun to play and I love the pve aspect of it, where you don't necessarily have to be doing A Thing to play, you can just go to a site a go after some rando enemies.

[Darkanra]

How long have you been playing Destiny/Destiny 2?

Just passed my first year anniversary! Okay, that's a lie, it was like,, the 14th of October or something. Destiny was literally the first game I got on my first ever PC for my birthday. It was also my second year at uni so perhaps not the best way to avoid distraction haha. I've sadly never touched D1 :<

What platform do you play on?

PC only ^^

Which class do you main?

I main Warlock! Have done since I joined :D

Favorite subclass?

Oooo, if you'd asked me a few months ago I would have said solar. But with the 3,0 changes that have happened, I have better builds for Void and Arc, because I still find it way harder to proc incandescent incinerations? Well is still good but it's not that fun to run over chaos reach and nova bomb, so I tend to avoid it now (Unless I'm messing around with eager edge ofc). I have always found the Warlock stasis melee the most annoying thing ever, and there's literally no way of us shattering our stasis walls like on hunter and titan so I have used stasis once for the beyond light campaign and that was it.

What (non-Exotic) weapons/weapon types do you like? Dislike?

Calus mini-tool with incandescent has a special place in my heart, as does Ammit Ar2 since the latter was what I finally completed the crafting quest from witch queen for. I tend to build around my exotics which usually occupy my energy slot, so I use a lot of shotguns. I used to be big on rocket launchers, but have recently crafted myself a Taipan, so I'm working on making that better.
I have an inherent dislike for sidearms and grenade launchers.

What's your favorite Exotic weapon(s)?

With the 3.0 changes and my new interest in building around stuff, I use mostly Trinity Ghoul and Graviton lance now, but Huckleberry will always have a special place in my heart. I have so many kills on that thing. Ace of Spades as well haha

Favorite character(s)?

I really like Shaxx, I just find him incredibly funny. I'm kind of neutral towards most of the other NPCs, but I also love Saint a lot, simply because of that disastrous Dawning scene from last year. Also very interested in Felwinter? I just think he sounds very cool ngl

Does your Guardian and Ghost have a name, and if so what are they?

They do! He even has a toyhouse profile~
My exo Warlock's name is DDoS-4 and his ghost is called Castor
My exo Hunter's name is Breach* and his ghost is called Break
My exo Titan's name is Clickbait* and his ghost is called Brick

*Still thinking about their numbers (and names tbh) bc I don't pay as much attention to them hahaha

Uuuu yeah, I think that's all.
I'm usually on Destiny for min of 2-ish hours per day, so if anyone wants to be bungie friends pls lmk <3

[receptions]

hi! pvp player and hunter main here. i celebrated my few thousand hours of playing hunter with a hunter tattoo on my chest . ask me about weapon perks, builds, or for a pve carry and there’s a very high chance i’ve got you covered. my favorite subclass has always been arc with liars handshake and i enjoy funky weapon combos like bow/trace. recently i’ve honed my sniping skills to where i can drag scope/quick scope pretty reliably. anyways, fashionframe is endgame as per usual.
my bungie name is something like uldren sov’s emo fringe

my characters:
xarix: awoken hunter (ghost is named azure)
sinister-13: exo titan
dropout-4: exo warlock

current protip: since gryfalcon's was reenabled, use it with void hunter + rat king + all of your invisibility perks. it's hilarious in pvp
