1. Choose The Class That Suits You Best
This will be your first act in Destiny. For some of you it will be the most difficult decision you will have ever made. Well, maybe not the most difficult…but it will be little hard if you don’t know the main differences. There are a few factors you may consider in making your decision.
The classes that comprise your options are Titan, Hunter, and Warlock. Each has its own unique aesthetic. The Titan lives up to its namesake as it is a rather bulky looking class with a heavy focus on armor. The hunter appears to be a bit more lithe, with a long flowing cloak and knife in hand. The Warlock is the most mysterious of the bunch with its glowing void energy and long embroidered robes. Of course, if you want to get to the nitty gritty, gameplay style is also important.
While all of the classes control relatively the same, there are subtle differences that may help you lock in your first choice. The Titan is raw brute force, boasting special abilities that put it front and center during large battles. With a high armor and toughness rating the Titan serves perfectly as any team’s tank. It is able to take massive amounts of punishment and the ability to deliver devastating physical blows to any enemy in close proximity.
The Hunter, on the other hand, is perfect for those who want to keep a distance. Fast and agile, this class will get you in and out of the fray with ease. With special abilities focused on lightning fast precision kills this is the perfect class to take out strategic enemies. It also has the ability to use its melee ability at a distance after some time, making for excellent one-on-one battles with tough enemies.
Rounding the group out is the Warlock who seems to be the most balanced of the bunch. With a slew of crowd-managing abilities, your Warlock can be a major asset to whomever you team up with. Grenades that spread over a large area and a Super that leaves a deadly pool of void light are great techniques to give an edge. The Warlock also has great resource management skills, keeping you armed with special abilities. If you’re not sure which play style suits you best, this class is great for beginners.
