Zavala is... an interesting character, to say the least...
He’d have to be an Arc Titan because of the weird rule-of-three thing the Vanguard does, right? Awoken Arc Titan, Human Void Warlock, Exo Solar Hunter.
Now here’s where things get even more interesting:
In the EDZ bunker mission, he uses the Void Titan banner shield ability thingy
In the vanilla campaign, he repeatedly uses Void Titan Bubbles when the tower falls
BUT:
In the Season of Worth trailer, he uses an Arc Striker ability against the Cabal on the Almighty
Zav also used Arc abilities in his story trailer
There are “holograms” of Zav using a Solar hammer in the Dark Forest of D2’s Red War campaign
Now, I’m a Solar Gunslinger. I’ve never played a Titan before, so I’m not entirely familiar with their abilities, but this is intriguing from a story standpoint.
Sure, Ikora is a fucking badass and has used both Voidwalker and Stormcaller abilities, and Cayde did stuff from all 3 Solar trees in that Last Stand cutscene, but they’re both specialists in their elements and are rarely shown multiclassing.
Saint is a Void Titan- That’s all but confirmed. However, as someone kindly pointed out in the notes, he has used Arc abilities before in the comics.
Now that I think about it, we’ve only seen a few Vanguard members, current or otherwise, not using abilities other than those of their element.
Idk about Andal or Tallulah, but as far as I know, Andal was a Solar Hunter... and Tallulah gives me Solar vibes from the entry I’ve read (The Bombardiers exotic leggies for Hunters)
In Conclusion? I’m wrong. A lot. And while the Vanguard may have the rule of three going on, their members aren’t all restricting themselves to their main element, which is awesome.
Update 2:
Thank y’all in the notes for informing me about Ikora and Zav in the forest and trailers! Sorry that I didn’t know about those...
Updated about Saint using Arc abilities
I’ve revised the post accordingly
Update 3:
Osiris uses all three Warlock Supers in the Immolant pages (which *I think* came out a few months after this original post). Removed note about him only using Solar.
Caliban-8 also mainly used Solar. Updated bc Caliban’s Hand exotic
Why isn't anyone talking about these hanging in Zavala's office?
According to Destiny lore he's not a Solar Titan and he's hated by the Sunbreakers, so why does he even have these in his office? The shield makes sense since he is a Void Titan but these two don't make sense.
