In the present day’s Future 2 teaser for the Renegades enlargement confirmed off a slew of weapons and kit debuting subsequent month. The brand new Exotics stole the present—extra particularly, the upcoming Titan chest piece, which appears to work like a jetpack.
The brand new Praxic Vestment chest piece provides Titan an “superior tactical air transfer,” based on its official description within the trailer. In follow, this appears to translate to a restricted however respectable air lunge that permits gamers to cowl a good distance, each horizontally and vertically. It additionally counts as transferring for the needs of lunging melee assaults, corresponding to Protect Bash, Hammer Strike, and Seismic Bash.
The opposite two Exotics nearly really feel bland as compared. The Deimosuffusion Unique Warlock helmet causes your Rifts to droop enemies and makes this affliction deal harm over time, whereas the Fortune’s Favor leg armor for Hunters appears to solely let your protect replenish into an overshield.
Although it’s straightforward to think about the Titan because the stalwart, anchored protect that staves off the assault, Future‘s tackle the subclass additionally affords some mobility—with the Twilight Garrison Unique armor piece within the unique sport, plus the Thruster means added to the sequel with Arc 3.0 in 2022.
After all, the performance seen within the teaser could not at all times be precisely the way it performs out inside the sport, and there’s at all times the prospect of an interplay not proven within the description. However to date, Titans appear to be the massive winners from the teaser.
Barring any but unadvertised synergies with overshield for Hunters or an extra-strong layer of safety to stack with different sources of harm discount, the brand new leg piece appears nearly skippable at first look, extra possible showing in PvP modes than in PvE. Hunter mains have known as for buffs to the category, which can not really feel as highly effective as its counterparts utilizing sure builds, and this Unique could not shift the needle in that regard.
Warlocks may get a pair totally different choices for Droop with Deimosuffusion, particularly with Strand. It’ll be exhausting to interchange a well-rolled Solipsism for Prismatic builds, nonetheless, given a construct with the upcoming helmet can even require a powerful funding within the Class stat and giving up on Phoenix Dive.
The video additionally confirmed a set of weapons impressed by Star Wars, which is the theme of Renegades when it launches on Dec. 2. Among the many ranks, you’ll discover new hand cannons, sidearms, pulse rifles, and even a heavy sniper rifle—hopefully a Legendary one this time.
