So, I'm playing Destiny as a Warlock and I noticed that some of my gear had very 'anti-hunter' descriptions. One said something along the lines of Hunters not being able to shoot straight and other said Warlocks will never 'cede their position' to the Hunters. Anyone know why there's bad blood between the two, or if there's tension between all the classes, or did I just pick a class that happens to be really pissy?
EDIT: So there is some tension between each of the classes. The shit talk mainly goes on between the Warlocks and Huntards. The Huntards and Titans also have a few jabs at each other. Titans and Warlocks seem to get along.
Edit 2: Hunters*
Edit 3: Holy shit, nearly 1500 replies now. This post was from the Beta in July and it just picked up a lot more steam.

Edited by TehW3apon: 7/27/2014 1:28:21 PMI have a cloak that makes fun of warlocks saying something along the lines of. "Tell the warlocks that your cloak is "Frabjous". Warlocks respect words they don't understand." And who you calling "Huntard", Whorelock!? Brrrrriiiinnnnng iiiiiiit! Friggin armband-wearing space wizard.

Hunters: Rogues, the occasional criminal in past life. Warlock: Scholar type warrior, focused on respect. Titan: Soldiers. All: Get the job done.

Cause we have that cape swag awww yeah !!!
-
A perspective - Hunters: I'm gonna hide in this corner and throw rocks at you and then blame the warlock when you catch me. Warlocks: noooo I'm fragile and you'll mess up my pretty things [prancing away]. Titans: oh whats that, it moved, can I kill it? I'M GONNA SMASH IT WITH A STICK!
-
We gots dat space magic and them hunters dont respect it, baby
-
I found a hunter cloak that said "you have two objectives one protect the city two look better than warlocks but don't make it look like your trying"
-
Because they're jealous
-
Because warlocks and hunters are the main combatants in destiny. Let's face it: hardly anyone likes the Titan. It's not even on the same level.
-
Titans soon will be the shield to every one who can punch through giant groups with out a scratch and attack from behind while your partners are shielded. THUS titans own

Edited by ScottOnSheppey: 7/26/2014 12:58:29 PMI have a Hunter cape with the lore "Tell the Warlocks your cloak is frobjous. They respect words they don't understand"
-
While all this happens, Titans just sit back and watch the insults fly!! :]
-
I believe Titans and Warlocks like each other. I have a feeling Hunters are very Han Solo-esque which is why basically everyone hates them. XD
-
It's kinda funny because I'm a warlock for my main and my least favorite class is hunter.

Edited by Shaun: 7/26/2014 11:59:24 PMIt's more rivalry than hate. I haven't gotten any this time around but in the Alpha had a lot of gear with similar comments. It is more just the way they think and act. Warlocks are more calm collected and seek knowledge. While Hunters are out in the wild getting dirty not always following the rules and have those super flashy capes. Hunters are essentially the wild children and the Warlocks are the mature studious ones. I haven't heard it this time but in the Alpha the Hunter Vanguard also made some funny but not-mean spirited remarks about Warlocks.

My brother got a cloak that's description says it's "way cooler than Warlocks"
-
Because you touch yourself at night.

My friend the Titan enjoys running into hordes of enemies punching and gunning them all down while me (hunter) i stay back using my scout and sniper rifles, taking out the occasianal horde with a grenade or rocket launher, then my two warlock buddies are using supers and providing support for my titan buddy. We are all useful. (Oh yeah and when shit gets real -blam!-ed i gotta run in, knife everything and revive my buddies.)
-
Both classes hate Hunters because of their damn cloaking :P
-
They hate us for our fancy capes.
-
People keep saying hunters used to be bad guys and are still. Hunters used to be all manner of things. But Bungie described them as being pilots, bounty hunters, marksmen/sharpshooters, cowboys etc.
-
I don't know, but look at that beauty O.O
-
Because... By the time the Warlocks hop up in the air to throw their little glowball of grape kool-aid, Hunters have already turned them into ashes with the Golden Gun.
-
I'd rather be out in the frontier scavenging the ruins with my cape fluttering in the breeze, and nothing but the dead fallen at my feet to keep me company than sitting in a tower all day reading books or standing guard on a wall staring at the sun to ease the boredom.
-
That's because you stuffy, smock-totting, monk-wannabes spend too much time in books and meditation and not enough time out on the Frontier kicking some Darkness ass. Damn bookworms...
-
My friend is a hunter and his cloak reads: "Your missions: protect the City. Look better than Warlocks. But don't look like you're trying." - Pahanin Errata I think it's pretty great.
