Destiny 2 Striker: Subclass Guides, Grenade Abilities and Others

Striker Subclass Guide & Strategies

The Destiny 2 Striker is more focused on the damage compared to that of the Sentinel. It is capable of giving your extra grenade charge and increasing its effects,  leave damaging fields and creating arc explosions. The Striker deals massive amounts of damage to large areas as well with its Fists of Havoc. It also has great grenade abilities that don’t only provide massive AOE damage but as well as disorienting enemies by the numbers.

Unlike the Sentinel Subclass, you are not the tank of the team but rather deal damage to an AOE. This means that you excel in fighting large numbers of enemies and focus on controlling the crowd. Use your grenades to disorient enemies and damage them as well. You can both provide assistance to your allies by distracting your enemies and as well as a massive help to allies being surrounded by a lot of foes that come in their way. Just remember that you yourself can be trapped by the horde so always have an escape plan before jumping to your enemies hands.
