5. Bladedancer
Bladedancer has a unique and varied skill set that gives it the edge over a Titan Striker when ranking the best Destiny classes. First, like the Striker, the Bladedancer is able to quickly take out groups of normal red health enemies while also being able to modify it to stay cloaked, giving it a better chance to survive. Also the Bladedancer is well suited to do some emergency cloaked revives when needed. Finally, a Hunter Bladedancer has the inherent speed needed to sprint around the map quickly and get to critical objectives before the timer runs out.
However, the reason why Bladedancer Hunters are number five on the list of best Destiny classes is because of its inability to deal with bosses and highly armored enemies as effectively as the other classes. Like any other class, it can equip powerful weapons and get the job done, but its abilities aren’t as helpful as some other classes in the Prison of Elders. Like the Titan Striker, Bladedancer certainly had its moment in the sun in The Dark Below, but will be taking more of a backseat this time around in House of Wolves.
