Hunter: Nightstalker
Destiny 2: Forsaken New Subclass Supers
All of the Hunter subclasses are getting something neat. Arcstriders will get some defensive utility with their altered super and new attunements. And though I personally think it’s a bit counterintuitive, Gunslingers now have some crowd clearing options if for whatever reason their team is lacking it with their new super. It’s the Nightstalker though that is getting the flashiest changes out of all of them though.
The Nightstalker’s new super pretty much brings back the Bladedancer from Destiny 1, but in a crazy, souped-up form. The Nightstalker can go invisible, gain true sight (aka see where enemies are) smash enemies in the face with katanas, and then return to stealth. While yes, giving up the bow is going to be hard to do, especially in PvE, I can see this being incredibly powerful in PvP and Trials of the Nine. The Nightstalker also gets a new altered smoke grenade that can slow enemies that get caught in its path down, and through the use of a new attunement will go invisible after every precision kill.
I’d be interested to see how raiders make use of the heavy focus on invisibility, but even if the bow still is the most popular option in PvE, PvP is definitely going to be shaken up by this new path.
