11. Gunslinger
Best Gambit Subclasses in Destiny 2 (2022)
Even after a nerf to Blade Barrage, Gunslinger is still a force to be reckoned with in Gambit. For one, yes Blade Barrage is still pretty good, it’s just not as broken as it used to be.
Pop it on a primeval for some instant, safe and heavy damage; or use it on an envoy to melt it, and anything else around it, pretty much instantly.
Blade Barrage can also make quick work of guardians as an invader, and because of how quick it is, it can save you from getting sent back home early if someone gets the jump on you.
Of course, you can use the new buffed Golden Gun instead if you feel comfortable roaming, allowing you to get even more invader kills from a safer distance.
Gunslinger’s only draw back is that, outside of your super, the utility drops off a bit compared to other subclasses that have some more versatility to it. The next subclass is a prime example of this.
