Destiny 2 Community Requests Classic Armor Sets in The Final Shape

As Destiny 2’s The Final Shape expansion approaches, some players express a desire for the inclusion of classic armor sets, reminiscent of the ones seen in the character selection screen from the original Destiny.

With the upcoming launch of Destiny 2’s The Final Shape expansion in June, a segment of the Destiny 2 community is voicing their wish for the addition of three iconic armor sets that hold nostalgic value from the original Destiny. These classic sets, glimpsed on the character selection screen when players boot up Destiny, have left a lasting impression on Guardians since the early days of the franchise.

The three character selection armor sets include a brown set with a helmet featuring an air filter for Hunters, a long red jacket for Warlocks, and a white and black plated armor set for Titans. Despite variations and similar pieces like the Prodigal armor set for Warlocks, players yearn for Destiny 2 to include the authentic, original sets.

A Reddit post by user HimB0Z0 initiated a discussion within the community,

With players sharing their sentiments about the iconic armor sets. Some even suggested the inclusion of Commander Zavala’s armor set. Nostalgia and sentimentality drive the request for these classic sets, symbolizing the initial armor sets players encountered in Destiny.

While Destiny 2 has introduced a plethora of new armor sets with each season, the addition of these classic sets would evoke a sense of closure for a decade-spanning series. Players see it as an opportunity to pay homage to the legacy of Destiny as The Final Shape expansion marks a significant milestone in the game’s evolution.

However, Destiny 2 players will have to exercise patience, as The Final Shape has been delayed until June, making it the longest season in the history of the series. Bungie is also planning to release a precursor update titled “In the Light,” which might provide insights into new armor sets that players can anticipate in the upcoming expansion. As the Destiny 2 community eagerly awaits the final chapter, the prospect of classic armor sets adds an extra layer of excitement for dedicated Guardians.
