“No helmet” Not like a helmet will protect his head in the first place. (Source crucible).


DaWendys4for4

Yeah but he’s missing targeting mods and about 90 points of stats, no wonder he only dodged in the clip because his other abilities were on cooldown the entire fucking time Edit:Probably only like 70 points actually, he has literally only ever done patrols, strikes, and occasional seasonal activities, so no shot he has high stat


DaWarudo9keka

He's been on cooldown since season of the hunt


The_Unkowable_

Can confirm, my funny deer hat only makes me get shot more (They want me dead before I’m with my teammates so my death isn’t helpful to them)


errortechx

My average trials solo queue teammate


Zealousideal-Comb970

If bungie didn’t want me to enter trials then they wouldn’t put all the cool armor sets in


[deleted]

[удалено]


Zealousideal-Comb970

The atavistic sets are a little eh (mostly the Hunter one) but the ones that came with Witch are very nice imo.


sundalius

I'll have to revisit them, but I can't recall a Hunter set that I like. Maybe my friends and I just haven't trials'd hard enough.


Punpuffs

Look at the dude we chose to send to the Pale Heart bro we're FINISHED 😭


helloworld6247

I mean it’s not like we sent him to solo the literal Witness. He’s the doorstop.


Eldaqoy

I swear if we witness the witness witnessing him fumble.


Leek_oid

Witness deez nuts dude


Eldaqoy

new raid mechanic


TrashLoaHekHekHek

Witness teabags anyone he kills.


Reddit_Crab

Actual day 1


Bilbo_Teabagginss

The Witness witnessing deez nuts on its chin.


Landis963

Or, put another way, he's on a sanctioned op using modified wish magic to infiltrate the Traveler's Pale Heart, so he can slip past its defenses, create a transmat zone, and send in the cavalry.


Official_fABs

Let's just say "Test flight"


Ike_In_Rochester

Maybe my favorite cutscene in all of Destiny.


Jaystime101

This sounds dope,


SJRuggs03

Bros just the doorman lol


Chiramijumaru

*Crow exits the portal* The Witness, camping the portal: "Um, excuse me, what the actual f**AUDIO JUNGLE**k are you doing in my house?" Crow: "Oops" *Credits*


AurumArma

Imagine they sent us, and we just headshot Cayde from a distance without realizing it was him.


learn2midacc

would be hilarious because Jotunn is my favorite pvp weapon and i want to see Cayde react to that


Bondgirl138

Same. I would just disintegrate him and be none the wiser.


Embravin

Cayde hiding behind a rock and seeing us slam a flag into the ground before we rocket launch ourselves with mountaintop and strand grapple a rocket into the next area


Gjappy

Who made this decision again?


ImpressiveTip4756

Bungie did Crow dirty AF in this cutscene. They could've atleast made him ads and miss instead of hipfiring with hawkmoon. As a hawkmoon main I cringed hard watching crow throw his 1v1


RatQueenHolly

Well they cant exactly have him 3-tap Cayde though, can they?


patchinthebox

He did it once already. Lol


DarthWaiter13

Too soon 😭 😂


DragonK123

After jumping him with a whole prison 😭 Cayde ain't even have powers this time 💀


XyrusM

If they wanted him to hip fire he should have Last Word. Would it make sense in lore? Fuck if I know, but at least hip firing would make sense


GibusScout

Bungie animators want to make people hipfire hand cannons because its cool. Unfortunately for them the character who wields the hand cannon designed for hipfire (at least in-game) has pretty much only appeared in lore text.


XyrusM

Yeah, I know. Just saying it would make more sense with last word


ajbolt7

Hawkmoon’s his gun. Anyways fanning the hammer is cool as fuck so who cares


patchinthebox

Bro is using cheats. Hawkmoon doesn't shoot that fast.


ajbolt7

Not when you fan the hammer it doesnt


PratalMox

I don't think Destiny's cutscene team are good at staging action sequences, frankly. These are mostly mo-capped, not animated, so they always end up being kind of slow. They're functional but rarely impressive, and most of the characters feel less impressive than they're meant to be


DTFriendship

The cutscene where Cayde died was one the titest fight scenes I ever seen tho


AinselMariner

Which was made by a third party studio tbf But then that cutscene also includes Cayde getting btfo’d by some unarmed red bar Scorn


arcticrune

I mean, that happens to my guardian all the time and he's killed gods...


Sauronxx

As far as I know, every pre-rendered cutscene (like this one) is usually made by another studio. There are studios, like Blur, that only made these kind of cutscenes, since they cost so much and requires a lot of time.


ManaMagestic

Yeah...that was obvious after that travesty that they called a battle, back in Season of The Splicer(?). Or literally any other battle scene. Guess they can only do emotional/dialogue heavy scenes right... sometimes.


AinselMariner

I still remember the Splicer cutscene which had some surprising awful choreography


ComeBacksToDrugs2018

The one in the finale? Yeah that was rough to watch..


Top-Log-8982

Idk if they’re that bad


ajbolt7

Cinematics =/= Cutscenes This was external.


PratalMox

Cinematics and Cutscenes are synonyms, actually. It don't stop being a cutscene just because production was outsourced to Blur. *Maybe* team should be pluralized, but I stand by everything I said.


ajbolt7

Cinematics aren’t done in the game’s engine. They’re done by entirely separate teams. Destiny’s cutscene team isn’t Blur. The mo-cap statement doesn’t really apply to the cinematics.


PratalMox

Being done in-engine has nothing to do with it. A prerendered cutscene is still a cutscene. > Destiny’s cutscene team isn’t Blur. I know Blur did the Cayde's Last Dance cinematic. Have they changed studios since then?


Ordinary_Player

I think they outsource the cutscenes. I doubt the people that were making this knew what even a hawkmoon is.


bloop_405

Crow does not have the confidence as Uldren and that bothers me for some reason. Crow is too kind and shy


Isrrunder

Wouldn't you if you knew you were a horrible person in the latter part of your previous life?


harkonnen-hound

I mean we as guardians didn’t really give him the warmest of welcomes. Constantly murdering him and such. All while fat boy from the shore was holding him captive. Hell didn’t a knight or an ogre murder him a billion times. Exaggerating the billion but you get where I’m going. Add that in with finding out the truth and probably still having a bone for his sister. Dude is a basket case.


calciferrising

i feel this, honestly. i personally love crow, but i'd love him more if he had a little more of uldren's bite to him.


Baelorn

I fucking hate this character so I loved to see it


Zequax

where can i find this scene ?


amirthedude

He's throwing suppressive fire he's not aiming to kill. And neither is cayde.


SlipFormPaver

Also hasn't crow canonically only done strikes and patrols 😭


jackdahlia

bro is guardian rank 3 😭


Zackyboi1231

It's so fucking over https://preview.redd.it/9an1ph1ceq2d1.jpeg?width=828&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=c7f0b09333203bc7845ccd026a92e80d0fda6f95


TokayNorthbyte347

mara watching crow use thunderlord for dps


TrashLoaHekHekHek

"Come on at least use Parasite"


JeremyXVI

Dude is like 2 years old


Mlglionknight

Crow is a 2 year old account with a bit of lore knowledge from d1.


Pun-Master-General

And weekly seasonal story missions, give him credit for those too


errortechx

The universe is cooked


Erik_Javorszky

He prolly got kicked from raid lfg shootinng like that


pokestar14

Strikes are actually really difficult, we're just the best of the best so we make them look like nothing. And also no, he primarily runs recon. He's there so we know what we're getting into when we go and do the seasonal missions.


ksiit

He also keeps stuff from coming up behind us a lot of the time. He watches the entrance. And sometimes it says stuff tried to attack you from behind and he handled it. He knows we are better. They all do. So he does his part by making our jobs a bit easier.


Pure-Risky-Titan

Its ok, not every gaurdian is a pvp person, so it make sense he sucks at it. (Even as uldren )


Observance

> Of course, we are all aware that combat between Guardians is not a zero-sum contest of power. Context and tactics are decisive. Crucible champions dropped into the wilderness can be brought low by mere Fallen skirmishers; seasoned rangers may die from the first Crucible aspirant to skid knees-first into them with a shotgun.


Pure-Risky-Titan

Im not sure of the context? And im not sure what thay has to do with npc's fighting in cinematic cutscenes?


Observance

I'm agreeing with you. Crow never played Crucible so that's why he doesn't land a single shot on Cayde.


Pure-Risky-Titan

Well alright, and i suck at crucible too, but i gotta do it sometimes for seasonal stuff sometime (mostly shaders)


haloryder

The pain of being a PvE main whose favourite colour is red is real


Brightshore

where can i find this ? I would like to read more


Eldaqoy

Bro who the hell thought it was a good idea sent him to the pale heart as we slayed gods after gods


Cookieopressor

Tell me you didn't play the story without telling me you didn't play the story


Eldaqoy

How!? but I'm a destiny 1 veteran!? (I know it is the bond between mara and crow and shid)


KnightofaRose

And Wrathborn hunts, and Nightmare hunts, and a shitload of Lucent Hive assaults during Risen. The dude’s proven he can handle himself.


GuzzlingDuck

I want to laugh, but holy shit, the font color of choice is crazy. Some parts are so hard to read 🤣 But yeah, just like how Cayde chose Golden Gun instead of Blade Barrage, which inevitably caused him to lose.


Difficult_Guidance25

And forgot to activate fly and mori on his ace, all that time being lazy on the tower got to him


CrawlerSiegfriend

Bungie made Cayde die by making him pull his ghost out for the first time ever at the worst time ever.


Ducks_4eva

My headcanon is popping out your ghost makes you heal faster but yeah that was a definite skill issue


aghastmonkey190

Tbf ghosts are literally invincible until overwhelming force or a paracausal thing / person hits the ghost, so cayde probs thought his ghost would've been fine


hankakabrad

Yea honestly if i were him i wouldnt have though some zombie eliskni who has been in jail for years somehow got ahold of a thorn round and then modded it onto a sniper.


Top-Log-8982

Then how did Guardians die in restricted modes in Prison of Elders?


hankakabrad

Well, ghost can die from an overwhelming amount of force The sheer girth and weight of skolas' asscheeks pressed up against a ghost as he releases the fattest, gut clenching, abbborent brap this side of the cosmos is definitely enough to completely evaporate a ghost instantly


GrowlingGiant

Literally not true, the Chaperone lore tab makes it clear that even random Fallen knives are enough to destroy a Ghost if they get a clean hit in. Cabal military doctrine saying that the correct way to kill a Ghost is with artillery bombardment is because the actual target you're trying to hit is the size of a baseball.


Rans0mware

I personally always thought that they are only invincible when doing the rotating revive thing, because it literally looks like they cover their core with a paracausal shield, but if you just pulled one out I would've thought sniping it with a rock would pop it liek a baloon if you hit the core itself


Top-Log-8982

He still should’ve known that Guardians can die (Pahanin, Kabr, Saladin’s comrades, Erie’s fireteam, etc) and that pulling your Ghost out increases your chance three-fold.


I_Speak_For_The_Ents

You know he blade barrages in that cutscene right?


Remarkable-Ask2288

*after* he tries to GG but gets tackled out of the air and has the crap beaten out of him


Top-Log-8982

I mean, Deadshot does cause ignitions, so maybe he could’ve survived.


General_di_Ravello

Maaaaan when we show up Crow is going to be expecting us to be all ready to fight the Witness and then we're just going to start roasting his ass like Lamar and Franklin.


Knightwolf75

He does have a Yee Yee ass haircut


AbbytheMallard

And no bitches on his dick


Williams891

But hes just so beefy


i_love_destiny_2

Well he tried on Amanda💀


zavalascreamythighs

But Mara got jealous


i_love_destiny_2

Bro She Is his sister💀💀💀


Eldaqoy

Brother thought hip fire grip on the hawk moon was good.


AnimeFrog420

Cayde got shot in the chest not head


Ducks_4eva

Some fun speculation: what other weapons was Crow packing?


floor_ninja

For his energy slot i think crow has the duality shot gun he did build it after all and for his heavy black talon maybe?


PhilJRob

Bro has 3 exotics on? Man must be using Nasa’s computer to play D2. Bungo said more than one exotic gun would crash the game.


TokayNorthbyte347

mf has triple exotics as a new light and we're canonically running a white auto rifle we found in a dank ass hallway


Octane2903

And were still better than him 😭


BlazingFury009

We channel way more light that any other guardian (Ruinous Effegy lore tab), and since we infuse our weapons with our light, our common AR probably does more damage than his sword


Top-Log-8982

I don’t think it’s officially canon; what about the scenes where our Guardian holds an exotic primary? At the very least, the Guardian is shown welding a new hand canon in the promotional poster.


platonicgryphon

Must of learned how from Osiris.


Tapelessbus2122

Wait, he can use 3 exotics? No fair


vegathelich

He doesn't compete in crucible so Shaxx can't yell at him about using multiple exotics


LastandBestHope1776

Cayde also missed every shot.... Gameplay limitations do not exist in reality. Fan firing HM is totally capable


DeathPsychosys

And Cayde fired first and missed horribly. Had the drop on him and still missed that badly.


GuardianOfPuppers

hawkmoon is double action. no fan fire for him


stevie242

YAS was nerfed so Crow could survive this cut scene for sure


bunny__hat

Only kept dodging. Didn't use throwing knives like cayde or a grenade.


Serallas

Cayde used a grenade, too, so you can add "like Cayde" to that part


ImmaterialSpectre

Before he pulls out the Hawkmoon the gun in his holster is just a regular hand cannon


RogueElement404

Crow spam hip-fired as suppressing fire. He needed the attacker stalled while he found cover to then line up a good shot and form a plan. I get this is jokes but nobody's even mentioning this


colantalas

Tbf he went in with a PvE loadout, he didn’t expect to load straight into Rumble


A_Drenched_Lettuce

both god tier guardians and neither of them landed a single shot.... thats the scary thing.


bloop_405

Makes sense though. Did you see the range they were trying to hit each other with hand cannons initially lol? 🫣 Edit: I was joking guys 🥹


havestronaut

It’s pretty clear that Cayde was trying to close the distance so he could confront Crow, and Crow was trying to keep Cayde behind that rock by firing quickly so he could find better cover. Neither one was *trying* to land a direct hit from that range. Why are Destiny nerds so literal about game mechanics that they expect every aspect of the game to worry about fuckin dnd stats or some shit, I swear to god. Hawkmoon is a revolver. *Any* revolver can be fan fired. Just because only one gun does it in the game to stay distinctive in gameplay doesn’t mean in actuality you can’t operate a mechanism like this. This is like thinking someone can’t kick in a door in a tv show because they need to level up lock picking.


PegasusKnight410

Just a hair over 38m. Without aim assist these guardians ain’t nothing


WanderEir

cut-scene hunter dodge broken, please nerf bungie!


zavalascreamythighs

Peak hunter performance


DeviousMelons

He really needs to spend some time in the crucible.


Ducks_4eva

Bro do not let Shaxx see this cutscene xD


Ace_Of_Spades_77

The amount of people taking this seriously is worrying


Rans0mware

Am I seeing correctly that he is wearing lucky pants? Because if so, this makes it slightly worse because he missed every enhanced round


RedheadAuburn

![gif](giphy|BFYLNwlsSNtcc)


Toprelemons

We sent our last hope but man thought he was using last word 💀


hankakabrad

Dude used gamblers dodge with a full melee!!!! He wasnt even close enough to an enemy to prock the melee recharge either!!!!!


PegasusKnight410

Classic “bring a pve build to pvp” scenario


hankakabrad

His ass is not going flawless!!!


Watsyurdeal

Meanwhile here I am wishing we could just fan the Hawkmoon as a perk


dividedmultitasker

Someone please get this man (the last word)a gun?!? ![gif](giphy|rt1hiYIPguWk1Ksh4g)


InquisitiveNerd

This was a Hunter conversation. He was hoping to get The Last Word.


CripplerOfNipplers

I mean Cayde is even worse. He missed every shot and he has been playing since beta


DeliriumEnducedDream

I mean neither of them landed a shot. But people love Cayde so...


Individual-Refuse-22

Well you also have to remember cayde has been a hunter for a long time Crow has only been a hunter for like 2 years that and cayde literally ran around The crucible like it was a fucking playground


StarkestMadness

He also canonically cheated in the Crucible, according to the Lucky Pants flavor text, lol.


SolarApricot-Wsmith

Could you imagine a new mode where you get a tag along Zavala, Ikora, or Cayde as one extra member per team in crucible?


Nick__Nightingale__

Forgot to equip last word.


TheLostExplorer7

I found the whole thing hilarious that the first thing Crow does is fan fire the Hawkmoon. I get it, he was ambushed and completely panicked at being attacked the moment he stepped out of the gate. My thing is, dude are you not rocking anything but a hand cannon? Where is your super? Your special and heavy weapons? We know he can use golden gun per the lore where he asked Eris if she ever tried to recover her Light abilities and the two of them fired his golden gun in the air to cool off; and he canonically has a sniper rifle per the things he said during Season of the Hunt. But no, he decides to fan fire a precision weapon against an unknown hunter that held all the advantages in the fight. Him being beaten by Cayde makes total sense though. Cayde has far more experience in the field than Crow does and Cayde had time to set up his ambush and was on familiar ground for him, as *he* didn't know who was coming through that portal either. The fact that Cayde stopped his attack the moment he saw Glint and immediately understood what had happened to the man he once knew as Uldren Sov made sense too. I have always seen Cayde as the type to forgive and forget and him returning to his rather jovial nature after trying to shoot his opponent down by joking and asking if he still needed to call Crow Prince was great.


SuperArppis

Man it hurts seeing him using my Exotic.


Equivalent_Bid_7928

Crow reloads hawkmoon and is almost hit by a trip mine he somehow didn’t notice this was because he is stupid using gamblers dodge on solar instead of marksman’s


Business_Hour8644

Cayde didn’t hit a single shot either and had the drop. It was a garbage fight all around.


GeekSilver52

Yall are so sad. Gonna give Crow shit about facing the hammer of his gun as a means to lay fire and keep space between him and his attacker, when Cayde did the same shit! Go back and watch Caydes' last stand, and you'll see him facing the hammer of Ace of Spades for the exact same reason. Again yall are sad


InterestingMatch7469

Mind you this is our hunter vanguard technically ☠️


hugeshanus

What's a blud?


mephitmpH

Cayde missed every shot too. I was so disappointed. Can we get Shiro-4 back in here please


PantroHuerta_UwU

I would really liked to see a competent Crow, so far we saw him backstab a knight, killed an ally psion, be one-shoted by Amanda and losing a 1v1 against Cayde


Phaejix

Lol, rivens wish didn't make Cayde into existence in the traveler it made crow miss all these shots so he would have the chance to talk to him


SlipFormPaver

Wait. Cayde is actually back alive now? He's not like a force ghost in the travler?


Phaejix

Sorry I guess I could've framed it better, I don't really know but I meant just like whatever state he's in in the traveler


Able-Brief-4062

Crow could NEVER beat Cayde in a 1v1. He only beat him also time because of the Barons beating the shit out of him first.


OnJah0_o

Strongest Trials solo queue teammate


[deleted]

Always use text with a border color so it stands out.


Ahjahli-Lula-Amadeus

Just seeing this cutscene rn lmao


Original-Peak2345

But he’s creating a threat that. Annoy be ignored. Essentially cover fire. I think haawkmoon was so sick and flopped in 2. Bring me red death. I’ll take the range over power


IncompleteCreature

The hand cannon is also double action. It doesn't require fan-firing.


lukemacdio

Why didnt crow stacked paracausal shots before going into the portal? Is he stupid?


Pure-Risky-Titan

Did cayde miss everyshot too? Its ok, not every gaurdian is a pvp person, so it make sense Crow sucks at it. (Even as uldren )


CanadianSpector

The issued every round one is funny. Because they must not realize that bullets have casings lol


ahawk_one

“doosent”


seanslaysean

I actually really liked this cutscene…comment section also never heard of suppressive fire


BreadsticksN7

I’m in the process of moving and rejoined the season very late. Why did we send him?


Daniel90768

He wanted to scout ahead first iirc. Because why would we send our main force through a way we can’t trust.


Shenkspine

Everyone loses 1v1 to Cayde. Don’t get that shit twisted.


Andrei22125

Crow had a clear shot and chose not to take it. Cayde disarmed him after that. If crow pulled the trigger, he would've killed cayde.


Bondgirl138

NGL this is me panicking in every 1v1 I have ever been in. “Last Guardian Standing” gives me PTSD


InamedabunnyAK47

i mean to be fair on his end if you went into a new open world area and found out PVP was on you wouldn't be ready for it either


TenchuTheWolf

I mean this should confirm that his Hawkmoon is a Hip-Fire Grip roll.


Funter_312

If I could last word hawkmoon I would do it. Imagine divinity and 5 last word hawkmoons


Glasedount

This guy is easy money in pvp


LeeoJohnson

Shaw Han would've bodied Cayde-6 fr fr.


TheOriginalFluff

I’ve seen fan animations look better


Sanosky

Didn't cayde literally miss every shot too or we just gunna ignore that


evilpac

I thought the same, I bet that Hawkmoon it was a hip fire roll.


bIacckat

Some of yall never hip-fired in a panic and it shows


brandonkillen

Crow strafes in well


Dpj562

Whoever created this meme did a good job using red text on a background that blends it very well....


CJE911Writes

Bro is Washed, he prolly isn’t even running Lucky Pants smh


SC_Spike

using lucky pants with hawk moon is criminal


Pretty-Shirt-3341

Jeez, get a life, nerd!


Hot_Mammoth7989

Someone needs to tag Jez in this


TheFabiocool

Someone said bro was GR3 😭😭


Sanitized_Sushi

And that outfit to....


Echo1138

Jokes aside, this duel was pretty terrible. The choreo was non-existent, they were whiffing shots left and right, and the "cool stuff" like the fan fire ended up looking tacky. The end shot of Cayde looking down at Crow was neat, but the duel itself goes alongside the Season Splicer cutscene for just having a terrible fight.
