Shinobu’s Vow (Hunter)
“No supplies. Armor in tatters. But the refugees had asked for help. And she had giver her word.” – Tale of the Six Coyotes
This one is for all of you Destiny: Rise of Iron Blade Dancers out there. With the Wrath of the Machine’s focus on close quarters combat, and the entire expansion allowing more freedom between range and melee, Blade Dancers are extraordinarily useful. Of course, with every other class getting some solid boosts through exotic armors, it’s only fair that Hunters do as well. Enter the Shinobu’s Vow gauntlets.
These gauntlets provide not only a more powerful Skip Grenade, but you also get two charges thanks to the New Tricks intrinsic perk. Players also have access to either the Momentum Transfer or Impact Induction perks, which grant bonus melee energy on grenade hits and bonus grenade energy on melee hits respectively. I will admit that these aren’t the most attractive gauntlets in Destiny, but you can choose worse exotic armors for your Blade Dancer. These also happen to be quite useful in both the Crucible and PvE side of things.
