Destiny-Style Tabletop RPGs Inspired By Looter Shooters

Having the winning team keep all collected ammo, but the losing team getting set back to default creates too big of a snowballing advantage.

Compared to the other RPGs in this article, Overlight, published by Renegade Game Studios, has a more explicitly fantastical setting akin to the raw, now canceled world of Anthem . According to the Kickstarter page, Overlight takes place in a world of " Kaleidoscopic Fantasy " that was shattered and warped after humanity misused the power of the Keys of Creation. In the surreal reality of this RPG, Skyborn player characters adventure across seven floating continents suspended between an endless sea and endless sky, encountering colorful species and cultures who defy and subvert the conventions of traditional fantasy world-building. The rules for the Overlight RPG are narrative in nature but also structured, generating interesting consequences for players whenever they roll dice or use the quasi-magical powers called "Chroma" in interesting, risky w


Vex Wyverns don't play around. To kill Wyverns efficiently, you need to use weapons that can stagger enemies. An Unstoppable round or any high-damage round will stagger Wyverns, revealing their weak point for a short duration. This is the only reliable means of facing a Wyvern head-on in high-level content . If you lack the right tools, prepare to get annihila


Season of the Lost introduced 11 Combat Style mods for you to obtain. For clarity, this Triumph is referring to the Elemetal Well mods sold by the Wayfinder's Compass vendor ; the Stasis armor mods and holster mods added this season do not co


It might be strange seeing an immobile enemy on this list, but anyone who attempted Garden of Salvation on Contest Mode or any Vex GM Nightfall can attest to how terrifying a Cyclops can be. On lower levels, these enemies serve as annoying turrets that deal heavy AoE damage. When you're underleveled, these enemies can easily one-shot you. Since Cyclopses are fairly infrequent in most Destiny content, we can't place them higher on the list. But be careful; one blast is all it takes to kill

In our efforts to strengthen security around the Trials experience, we're removing opportunity for players to create numerous free accounts to circumvent cheat detection, bans, and restrictions. (More on Security be


Besides their flurry of projectiles, Hive Wizards have the ability to deploy smoke clouds that suppress movement, blur your vision, and deal small amounts of damage over time. Fortunately, these enemies float in the air, making them easy prey for the likes of Snipers or Scout Rifles . Majors and boss variants of Wizards fire faster and deal more damage, resulting in an enemy that can kill players instantly. If you can't break their shield, prepare for an onslaught of projecti

Warlocks are the only class in the game that can regain all of their health on kill or float in the air for nearly a minute. Warlocks are a blessing in any PvE activity , mostly thanks to the Attunement of Grace spec for the Dawnblade subclass. This subclass lets players heal allies, buff their damage, and allow Warlocks to create a Well of Radiance that is nigh-impossible to die


All of these tools give Titans a degree of map control that no other class can match . You can pressure enemies to retreat by pushing forward with a Shoulder Charge, or you can create a diversion by deploying a Barricade. Timid players get punished by a Titan's melee abilities , while aggressive players have difficulty dealing with their Barrica

The Brightest Things We Know , a science-fantasy RPG by Briar Sovereign currently in early development, takes the same cues from Destiny as LIGHT , but uses the Forged In The Dark tabletop RPG ruleset to tell stories about a far-future group of exiles that reside in massive space-faring Foundry Ships, protected from empires alien and human by a group of elite warriors called "Stars." To create their "Star" PCs, players of The Brightest Things We Know choose from a selection of character Playbooks patterned after different Constellations in the Zodiac. The core gameplay loop of The Brightest Things We Know sessions alternates between "Strike" Phases where a "Cluster" of "Stars" complete missions and contend with the enemies of the Foundry Ships, and "Ship Phases" where PCs rest, recuperate, and cash in the resources/data they've acquired in order to gain new equipment and weap
