In Destiny 2, players are Guardians, defenders of the Last City of humanity in a solar system under siege by dangerous forces. As a Guardian, explore the mysteries of the solar system, unlock powerful elemental abilities, and collect unique gear to customize your Guardian's look and playstyle. Enjoy Destiny 2's cinematic story, challenging co-op missions, and a variety of PvP modes alone or with friends.

Destiny 2's latest expansion, The Final Shape, launches on June 4. With The Final Shape, Guardians will finally enter The Pale Heart of the Traveler to chase after the Witness, wielding new powers to take on the ultimate enemy.

Alongside three new Light Supers, Guardians will wield Light and Darkness together for the first time to unleash the Prismatic subclass. This subclass introduces new options to enhance and customize each playstyle with the combination of multiple element types. Also, each class will get a unique grenade that combines multiple subclass elements: Warlocks will have Stasis/Void, Titans will have Strand/Arc, and Hunters will have Solar/Stasis.

Players will also be able to equip an Exotic class item, meaning Hunter's cloaks, Titan's marks, and Warlock's bonds will have Exotic-level perks for the first time. These perks will be randomized, taking two features from existing Exotic class items (even some belonging to other classes) to enhance the Guardian's ability to customize their gameplay.

The Witness is in full force in The Final Shape, introducing the Dread faction, a fierce group of combatants with new abilities to shake up the fight. In addition to the Tormentor introduced in the Lightfall expansion and the previously revealed Subjugators, the Witness will unleash the new Grim, Husk, Attendant, and Weaver units:
  • Grim: A highly mobile flying enemy that slows and suppresses a Guardian's abilities if they get too close.
  • Husk: An acrobatic melee bruiser that sends a deployable geist enemy toward you unless you hit their weak spot with a final blow.
  • Attendant and Weaver: By wielding Stasis and Strand, respectively, these units can instantly change the flow of the encounter and force Guardians to pay attention to their positioning on the battlefield.

I really doubt they'll be that much at retail. Steelseries is kind of like LG in that way. The MSRP usually don't reflect the price you'll eventually find them (in a good way).

FTFY. and...

Yeah...I'm going to buy that. I need some new KF, and while I usually don't care about packaging, that's my type of "I'd actually use/display that" that doesn't add enough to the cost to not spring for it imho.

Remember to use code...I'm not that guy...to make them the price of what most sets cost everywhere else. (Point is, if you're savvy you'll probably only pay a few bucks more than a regular set at pick-your-retailer).

That said, and I understand why the movement one isn't, I would prefer if both were the tall cap (or taller). That's usually how I roll, with the 11-12mm (or whatever their typical tall sets are) on both sides.

Maybe that's why I'm not the greatest in the crucible. Yeah, let's go with that.
