Destiny 2 Arc subclasses Stormcaller, Striker and Arcstrider are getting some new perks next week. There is a new patch coming that will change the abilities of these classes. Here we are going to look into what Bungie is going to bring to the table in the upcoming week.
Hunter Class
Arcstrider: Way of the Warrior
Combination Blow: This perk allows you to chain melee attacks in order to increase damage and trigger health regeneration. After the update, the damage of this perk will be increased by 60% in PvE and 22.7% in PvP. The buff can be stacked up to three times. Killing an enemy will give you 40 health and trigger health regeneration
Deadly Reach: This ability increases your melee range when you dodge. The duration of the perk is being increased from 6 to 8 seconds and it will no longer be used when you do a melee attack.
Arcstrider: Way of the Wind
Disorienting Blow: Hitting enemies with a melee attack will disorient them. The distance of effect will be increased by 50%. In PVP this move will disorient other players by 2 seconds rather than one and a half.
Focused Breathing: This allows you to sprint faster and you regain the dodge when running. The dodge regain is going to be increased by 100%.
Combat Meditation: This perk increases your melee and grenade energy when you have low health. Bungie is going to increase this by 25%.
Lightning Reflexes: This perk makes it harder for you to be killed when dodging. Damage resistance is going to be increased from 63% to 70% in PVE but in PVP the reduction is being changed from 25% to 40%
Titan
Striker: Code of the Juggernaut
Frontal Assault: This perk reloads your weapon and increases stability once you have punched an enemy. It will now give you 25% more damage against enemies and 20% more damage against guardians.
Knockout: The perk increases your melee damage and range once you critically hit a guardian. Now the increased damage has been increased from 25% to 60%. You can also trigger this by taking down 60% of the enemy guardians health or when you pop a guardian shield.
Warlock
Stormtrance
Stormtrance damage now scales up to 115% for five seconds. The visuals and sounds have been altered as well.
Stormcaller: Attunement of Conduction
Chain Lightning Melee: Melee attacks chain lightning to other enemies as well. After the update, you can chain up to 5 enemies together and the lightning can hit an enemy twice as well. The damage for each strike has been reduced from 50 to 31 in order to balance things
Arc Web: Attacking an enemy with a grenade will cause lightning damage as well. The chain will be longer and more enemies can be hit with by it. The chain range has been increased to 12 meters and chaining damage will reduce the cooldown of your grenade.
Stormcaller: Attunement of Elements
Electrostatic Surge: This perk charges your rift when your allies are nearby. This is being increased by 600%. While the perk is active the rift will fast 5 seconds longer making it 20 seconds in total.
Arc Soul: This perk summons souls that follow you and deal damage to enemies. The duration of this perk has been increased by 50%.
