Riding the wave from highs to lows, it’s all too easy to forget that Destiny 2‘s live-service model is still trucking on regardless of any other happenstance. For example, consider this year’s Festival of the Lost, which once again allows players to vote on their favorite armor ahead of time.
Last year’s Festival of the Lost featured some interesting novelties and one of the most coveted Mementos in the game, and while these features are currently expected to return this year, the spooky bug-themed armor voting will not. Instead, this year’s vote is down to two different types of wizards, with each of the game’s Classes getting their own spellcaster armor to splurge on.
The Destiny 2 FOTL 2024 armor vote is now up
As per Bungie’s latest TWID blog post, players can now officially begin casting their votes as to whether they’d like to get the “good” or “bad” wizard armor as part of 2024’s FOTL. As usual, only one of these armor sets will end up being implemented, making this vote a relatively important decision for the community. Anybody that’s interested in chipping in their own two cents on the matter can do so via Bungie’s SurveyMonkey poll. You may also get an email from Bungie inviting you to cast your vote.
One thing worth highlighting here, however, is that the armor sets might not get implemented exactly as-is in the end. “Remember that these are draft concepts,” says the TWID. “While we don’t intend to change the designs substantially, we always reserve the right to do so. Our art team is composed of masters of their craft, so if they come up with a way to make them even cooler, we want to leave them the space to do what they do best.”
Destiny 2’s good wizard armor
The good wizard armor sets feature ornate tidbits and a blue-and-gold color combo by default, with plenty of doodads hanging about to really underline the armor sets’ theme. With scarves, fine cloth, and softly glowing tidbits thrown in for good measure, these sets have a good vibe about them for sure.
Destiny 2’s evil wizard armor
On the flip side, the evil wizard armor features heaps of pointy bits and an edgier aesthetic overall, with brown leather and greyscale metal bits bringing the designs together. Of course, players will be able to slap custom Shaders onto their armor however they see fit, so there’s plenty of flexibility to be found here.
Of course, this does mean that the infamous Hunter Godzilla armor from a few years’ back is not getting implemented at all. It’s a shame, to be sure, but both of the presented themed sets are fairly snazzy in their own right, so it’s a bittersweet situation for Destiny fashion fans, for sure.
