There are three known classes of Guardian: [[Hunter]]s, [[Warlock]]s, and [[Titan]]s. Hunters are believed to utilize swiftness, accuracy, and possibly stealth. It has also been alluded to that Hunters are more of a sniper class. Warlocks can use the power of the Traveler, as shown by their three abilities, and Titans are believed to be able to both take and deal massive amounts of damage. <ref>[http://www.forbes.com/sites/michaelvenables/2013/02/17/bungies-destiny-unveiled '''Forbes.com''' ''Bungie's Destiny Unveiled'']</ref> The Guardians include members of the [[human]], [[Awoken]] and [[Exo]] races, and can be either male or female. | There are three known classes of Guardian: [[Hunter]]s, [[Warlock]]s, and [[Titan]]s.

While the choice of race is mostly aesthetic, the choice of class will have more impact. Note that all three classes have access to the same weapons, and are not "locked in" to any particular role. However, each class can specialize in a particular direction depending on which subclass the player is using. Choice of subclass will determine what [[Super ability]] the player can use, as well as what bonuses and other lesser abilities they'll have access to. Subclasses can be leveled up and switched on the fly, allowing a single character a degree of flexibility for different combat scenarios. | |||
