It’s release day for Destiny 2: Season of the Haunted, and we’ve already seen numerous bits of content revealed such as a range of exciting new weapons, an explorable Leviathan, and a new dungeon coming Friday May 27. However, it was the solar 3.0 rework that caught the eye of the community, especially Warlock players, who’ve excitedly spotted their newfound finger snap melee ability.
In the video embedded below, you can see each class perform numerous new or updated solar abilities while burning through waves of enemies. We only see the finger snap for a moment, cremating a pack of bundled up enemies, but that’s all it took to ignite an explosion of posts, discussion, and of course jokes on the Destiny 2 subreddit.
The flashy finger guns in this new melee ability was the first to catch the eye of the community, as an especially stylish and somewhat magical way of setting enemies alight. Fans of certain Japanese media immediately pointed out a direct comparison to a certain alchemist, while others compared the maneuver to the Bioshock franchise, as well as our favourite big purple lad Thanos.
