This Destiny 2 Hunter Shows Their Independence on 4th of July!
By Jeff Kotuby ·
When faced with a three-on-one situation in any game, most of us would concede defeat - but not this Hunter! Check out an amazing comeback, complete with one particularly amazing moment, in this Independence Day Power Play!
In Destiny 2, one of the most intense player-versus-player experiences takes place in the Trials of the Nine mode. Here, Guardians team up in groups of four and battle head-to-head for the chance to receive glorious prizes from the Nine themselves. Obviously, the higher the stakes, the higher the competition, and this awesome Hunter play deserves every bit of loot the Nine can provide.
Remember that one time, Hunter did good from r/destiny2
Here, we see the lone Hunter pop their Super as they seek to engage the enemy fireteam. The Arcstrider Hunter’s Super summons a lightning-infused staff that allows the Guardian to smite their foes like Thor himself. Then, the Hunter performs the read of all reads and dodges the enemy Warlock’s Nova Bomb. Nova Bomb is the Voidwalker Warlock Super, which summons a giant ball of death that is hurled towards the enemy. But here, it was no dice, and the Arcstrider makes their foes pay.
The Arcstrider subclass has been much-maligned since the beginning of Destiny 2, where it replaced the original Destiny's Bladedancer class. Hunters who enjoyed the original class have said the new class isn't as strong due to losing Blink, an ability that allowed the Bladedancer to teleport quickly in any given direction. Without that, Hunters say, the Super is difficult to use effectively, especially when everyone has a gun. But, at least in this instance, everything seems just fine.
A quick double kill is then followed up by the merciful killing of the last member of the opposing fireteam, clinching not only the victory for the Hunter’s team, but one of the fireteam’s all-time coolest moments in the party chat. When asked how they dodged the Nova Bomb, Reddit user and creator of the clip u/riddleinlondontown said, “The honest technical answer is tapping the dodge button when I think I’m going to get flattened. The sassy answer is if you can dodge a wrench you can dodge a nova bomb.”
