As The Witch Queen draws near, so too does the biggest subclass rework we\u2019ve seen in Destiny thus far. Rather than developing an entirely new darkness-based subclass for the upcoming year, Bungie instead revealed plans to overhaul Void. Aptly referred to as Void 3.0, this major undertaking is set to tweak just about everything pertaining to Void. From entirely new abilities, adjustments to fan favorites, and even the removal of certain powers. It\u2019s the latter that raised more than a few eyebrows from concerned Guardians following the reveal event. Though Bungie has since clarified its stance and assured players that popular Supers aren\u2019t going anywhere. \u201cThere are no plans right now, for us, for players to lose anything substantial in the conversion,\u201d Destiny 2 game director Joe Blackburn told Polygon. While some Super abilities have been part of Destiny for seven years, the devs have no desire to scrap them anytime soon. \u201cWe want to make sure all of that is there,\u201d he added. \u201cBungie doesn\u2019t want players to jump into The Witch Queen and \u201cfeel like a bunch of stuff got taken away from them.\u201d \u201cIt\u2019s really important that when you log in on day one you\u2019re not like \u2018Bungie took a bunch away from me,\u2019\u201d Blackburn said. \u201cThat is a huge non-goal for us.\u201d It remains to be seen exactly what may be scrapped when the time comes, though Supers appear to be safe. Instead, some minor \u201cmelee [abilities] or \u201cpassives\u201d that aren\u2019t \u201cexciting\u201d could be lost in the shuffle. Rather than focusing on the negatives of such a monumental shift for the Void subclass \u2013 one that will later follow for both Solar and Arc \u2013 the devs sought to highlight the positives. Once these changes go through, players should have more options at their fingertips than ever before. \u201cThe feeling of the year after The Witch Queen launches is going to be really different from the feeling of any previous year,\u201d General Manager Justin Truman said. \u201cNot just to, like, the meta of the weapons, but to your fundamental abilities. I think it\u2019s going to be a higher bar than we\u2019ve hit any previous year.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Destiny 2 devs responds to concerns Supers are being scrapped in Witch Queen update BungieHaving now revealed The Witch Queen expansion along with a major Void rework on the way to Destiny 2, Bungie has assured classic Supers won\u2019t be removed from the game, in light of recent concerns.
