It was meant to be a surprise for when the game launched, but due to multiple leaks prior to the launch of Destiny 2, but now Game Rant can officially confirm the return of the Taken King subclasses. Those are the Stormcaller, Sunbreaker, and Nightstalker; however, they have been slightly reorganized to fit in line with Destiny 2's new subclass system that provides players with just two predetermined paths to choose from.

The subclasses didn't see much of an overhaul when it comes to the perks in their skill trees as compared to the retooling Destiny 2 did with the Voidwalker, Striker, and Gunslinger subclasses. Many of their perks are exactly the same, only reorganized into the skill path system.

Nightstalker Hunter

Destiny The Taken King NightStalker

Way of the Trapper

Snare Bomb: Throw a smoke bomb trap from a distance with this Melee Ability. The smoke bomb sticks to surfaces and detonates when enemies are near, slowing and disorienting them.

Keen Scout: Sprint and sneak faster, and gain an enhanced tracker. Tethered enemies are marked for easy tracking.

Deadfall: The Void Anchors fired from Shadowshot become traps and wait for prey. Void Anchors have increased range and last longer.

Vanishing Step: Dodging makes you vanish from sight for a short time.

Way of the Pathfinder

Vanish in Smoke: Throw a smoke bomb explosive from a distance with this Melee Ability. The smoke bomb creates a cloud that makes you and nearby allies invisible.

Lockdown: Grenade and smoke effects last twice as long, allowing for strong territorial control and increased damage potential.

Heart of the Pack: Killing tethered enemies creates Orbs of Light and increases Mobility, Recovery, and Resilience for you and nearby allies.

Moebius Quiver: Fire Shadowshot multiple times in rapid succession. Shadowshot deals massive damage against tethered enemies.

Stormcaller Warlock
