Looking for a breakdown of all the Destiny 2 classes? The class system behind Bungie’s hit looter shooter has changed a lot in the many years since Destiny 2 players first took on the Red Legion in the fight for the Light. Though Destiny 2 still includes its Warlock, Titan, and Hunter classes – the same ones that first appeared in the original Destiny game – the once-simple Arc, Solar, and Void elemental subclasses have grown to include Aspects, and Fragments, and there’s also Stasis, a Darkness subclass.
Each of the Destiny 2 classes has a unique kit that leverages one of the game’s four elements to allow players to develop builds that suit their specific style of play. The team at Bungie is constantly iterating to keep the game fun and fresh in what many say is one of the best free PC games out there. While this is great for Destiny 2’s most active players, casual players and newcomers may struggle to keep up with the game’s evolving subclass systems and how they differ from other FPS games, especially with the introduction of the forthcoming Destiny 2 Strand subclass.
In this Destiny 2 class guide, you’ll find a character overview designed to help new players choose a class and begin turning it into a powerful Destiny 2 build. It will also be helpful for long-term players who are considering creating a new character and need a little guidance on what to try next. We’ll explore how each character class uses the game’s subclasses and abilities for maximum impact. Each subclass also has unique melee, grenade, and movement options, which players can customise according to their playstyles.
