<br><br><br><br>The Destiny series has featured a vast amount of uniquely designed characters over its multiple games and expansions. From instantly recognisable and iconic characters to more obscure ones often found in the background, Destiny offers a plethora of interesting characters with awesome designs.<br><br><br>But which characters have the best designs? While there is a lengthy laundry list of characters to choose from, there are a few definitively fantastic character designs across the Destiny series. The characters with the best designs don't have to be the best characters in the series , just the most visually impressive ones. From Exos, Hive, and Fallen to Awoken and good old fashioned humans, these character designs are by far the most unique, iconic, and visually striking. <br><br><br>10  Arcite 99-40 <br><br><br><br><br><br>Arcite 99-40 may not be the most recognisable name on this list, but they are by far one of the most visually interesting. Arcite 99-40 is the Crucible Quartermaster in the Tower. They were designed and built by Lord Shaxx, which is evident as they share similarities in design. Arcite 99-40 may be a simple vendor to most players, but their design is the most unique of all the Frames. <br><br><br>What makes them stand out the most is not only the two horns jutting out of their head but their colour scheme and the fur trim. The white and orange colour scheme makes them instantly stand out from the blues and greens found in other Frames. Additionally, the tuft of fur around their neck makes them feel far more unique as the more organic nature of the fur clashes with their robotic frame. <br><br><br>9  Cayde-6 <br><br><br><br><br><br>Cayde-6 may seem like an obvious choice to some, but it's thanks to his incredible design that he has become so iconic . Generally considered the comic relief character thanks to Nathan Fillion's amazing performance, Cayde-6 is one of the most important characters in both of the Destiny games. His role in Destiny 2 is even considered one of the biggest changes to have happened since the game launched . <br><br><br>While his design is quite simple, there are a few stand out features that have made him so iconic. For starters, the metallic horn sticking out of his head sets him apart quite a lot from his fellow teammates. While the rest of his figure looks mostly human, it's his overtly robotic face in conjunction with the blue hue emitting from within his robotic shell that makes him so unique. Additionally, his perpetually still hood that covers the top of his head adds a little flair to his otherwise average outfit. <br><br><br>8  Taniks <br><br><br><br><br><br>Taniks is a fairly badass Fallen Mercenary with one of the most intricately detailed designs in Destiny . He can be pretty tough to beat, so having a good guide on how to defeat him will help . Despite being a Fallen, Taniks is mostly built up of various technological parts. This can be best seen in his four arms, which have been switched out for robotic ones. His insectoid helmet designed coupled with the patchwork nature of his armour perfectly conveys his history of pilfering legendary treasures. <br><br><br>What solidifies Taniks' design as being one of the best in the series is his overly extravagant cape that flows around him as he marches into battle. It adds a level of prestige to an intimidating foe and feels like the kind of flair you'd find on a Bond villain. <br><br><br>7  Oryx <br><br><br><br><br><br>Oryx is a towering and monolithic villain responsible for causing incredible amounts of chaos in the Destiny series. He is singlehandedly responsible for the creation of The Taken, who proved themselves to be a formidable foe against the guardians. Oryx's design feels almost mythological and combines the most frightening elements of both dragons and insects . <br><br><br>The two standout features of Oryx's design are his enormous dragon-like wings and insectoid head. His ornate spider-like face instils terror in his foes while his wings help accentuate his terrifyingly large frame. He is a force of nature and his impressively designed appearance conveys that perfectly. <br><br><br>6  Zavala <br><br><br><br><br><br>Zavala is one of the most important characters in the Destiny series, and his character design reflects this. While he isn't as intricately or ornately designed as the other characters, like Cayde-6 his iconic status comes from a few clever and [https://www.destiny2Hub.com/ https://Www.destiny2Hub.com/] notable details. The most important details of his overall design are his red and white colour scheme and his imposing spaulders. <br><br><br>While they resemble pieces of armour found in Halo quite a lot, Zavala's spaulders or shoulder armour offer him a far greater sense of commanding gravitas. However, despite this, Zavala still has a sense of kindness within him. His soft features and the red padding beneath his armour make him appear lighter and more serene. He is a ferocious leader with a kind heart and his design reflects that . <br><br><br>5  Variks <br><br><br><br><br><br>Variks is a character with a deep background full of anguish and strife and so his design should, in theory, perfectly reflect that. Fortunately, Variks' character design matches his story and personal struggle in a succinct and clever way . <br><br><br>His robot arms, which are not too dissimilar to Taniks', showcase all that he has sacrificed in the name of corrupt leaders. His hunched appearance and the tall staff he relies upon offer players insight into his exhaustion and old age. Additionally, his more tribal appearance and face-covering make him unique from his Fallen brethren. <br><br><br>4  Saint-14 <br><br><br><br><br><br>Saint-14's design is both simultaneously intimidating and noble, which matches his personality perfectly. The metallic plume sprouting from the top of his helmet affords him a sense of rank and prominence, while the spikes that jut out from his spaulders and gauntlets make him appear gladiatorial. <br><br><br>What makes Saint-14 such a creatively designed character is the stark contrast between the medieval and almost antique nature of his armour with the purple beam of light emitting from within his helmet. While much of Destiny's character designs combine fantasy and sci-fi excellently, Saint-14 does so to a much higher degree of perfection . <br><br><br>3  Osiris <br><br><br><br><br><br>Osiris' design is such an incredibly unique one within the Destiny universe. While most characters will have some form of technological enhancement or armour plating equipped, Osiris is almost entirely clad in cloth save for his metallic eagle headdress . <br><br><br>Making a conscious decision to have Osiris dressed in light clothing as opposed to lumbering about in fullscale armour ensures that his agility and swiftness is captured in both his actions and appearance. Additionally, the use of a face covering and a deep hood help create a sense of mystery and awe surrounding him. <br><br><br>2  Lord Shaxx <br><br><br><br><br><br>Lord Shaxx is a fantastic character within the Destiny universe. His design somehow manages to capture both his bold and proud attitude as well as his more lighthearted side . The vibrant colour scheme of his armour exudes warmth while the fur lining around his neck and the singular horn on his helmet offers him a more distinguished look. <br><br><br>His unique and iconic design makes him one of the best characters and vendors to spot while dashing around the tower. With some of the funniest lore entries centred around him , Lord Shaxx is both incredibly endearing in both personality and looks. <br><br><br>1  The Speaker <br><br><br><br><br><br>The Speaker is by far one of the more conservatively designed characters in the Destiny franchise. While he lacks the more ornate and intricate designs of other characters mentioned, his design is no less successful in conveying his personality and character traits.<br><br><br>His mask and cloak help accentuate the mysterious aura he exudes while his white cloak makes him appear scientific and authoritative.

PLUG ONE.1 is a Legendary Fusion Rifle with a Precision Frame archetype introduced in Destiny 2 's Season of the Splicer . While this archetype didn't receive the same attention that Rapid-Fire Fusion Rifles did, this Legendary Fusion Rifle has the same 740ms charge time and damage as the Telesto Exotic Fusion Rifle - in addition to having double the magazine size. PLUG ONE.1 can only be earned through Nightfall strikes when it is available as a reward. Additionally, it can be earned with various perks beneficial to both PvE and PvP like Bottomless Grief, Heating Up, Kickstart, and Thresh. Like Null Composure, PLUG ONE.1 makes full use of the Particle Deconstruction mod and navigate here can be paired with Sleeper Stimulant or One Thousand Voices. While Null Composure may be unavailable, PLUG ONE.1 is a great alternative to set up the massive damage combinat


The Consecrated Mind encounter in Destiny 2 is overwhelming at first, but there are designated roles that can be applied to make the process a bit easier to follow. There are many weapons, including Season of the Lost weapons , to choose from for this encounter. The build-up to the damage phase is precise and requires a lot of enemies to be defeated first, so be sure to bring weapons that can easily accomplish this. Everyone on the team should have a Sniper Rifle or powerful distance rifle, an SMG or Auto Rifle , and a Fusion Rifle , Linear Fusion Rifle , or Rocket Launch


Two members of the Conflux Team will head towards the Conflux, while the third looks for a Vex Minotaur that will drop motes once defeated. Grab the motes, and return to the Conflux. Deposit them to temporarily earn the Enlightened buff. This will allow that teammate to defeat the enemies with immune shields. There are only a few of them, they cannot be allowed to reach the Conflux. These Vex Goblins will sacrifice at the Conflux, causing a wipe. As the Enlightened teammate deals with the immune enemies, another is looking for the next Minotaur to grab motes from. Additionally, all teammates should destroy the Succulents as soon as possible, since they explode when close to a Guardian. The Salvager's Salvo Grenade Launcher is perfect for this.

From the barrier doorway exiting the In Shadow Trivial Mystery, head left sprinting to the darkness. After three or four seconds a water wheel will be in sight and a barrier doorway next to it. Head inside and the chest will be guarded by some Taken. Defeat them, and open the chest to complete the Abandoned Triumph and Trivial Myst


The Conflux Team will have two objectives, the primary is to defend the Conflux while the secondary is to repair the arena. Every time a Vex sacrifices itself on a Conflux the Conflux will lose motes, even if the Conflux was previously full. If this happens, the team will not be able to make full use of the damage phase. It's best if the Conflux Team puts one member at each Conflux, and floats around to assist as need be with long-range capable weapons like Destiny 2 's Darkest Before Pulse Rifle . Additionally, a part of the arena will be destroyed every time the Sanctified Mind has a part shot off. When enough parts of the arena have been destroyed, both members of the Conflux team can regroup to form a quick tether and repaid that section. One member will shoot the Conflux, the Conflux will tether to them, they'll tether to the second teammate, and the second teammate tethers to a structure that repairs the arena (the structure looks like a barrier door lock from the very first encount

After depositing the motes, Portal Team One will have the same Enlightened buff that was seen in previous encounters. They'll be able to break the shields of immune enemies, but only for 45 seconds. It's best to focus on breaking as many enemy shields as possible while the effect is up so the Conflux Team can continue to defend both Confluxes, and there are plenty of the Season of the Lost weapons that can help. After Portal Team One returns, break another of the same side part for Portal Team Two to go through and gather motes.

As mentioned, the first step to get the In Shadow Trivial Mystery and Triumph is to align the second beacon. Afterward, climb up the hill near the edge of the cliff where Taken enemies were spawning.

This challenge will boil down to how good your team is. You'll need a team that can efficiently escort batteries, destroy Ether orbs, and cleanse Taken Rifts.
