Head Empty, Only Jötunn! [JÖTN]
Who we are
We are a clan of Destiny 2 veterans from all across the US. Our roots go back to LFG raiding back in Destiny 1. Major accomplishments include contest mode Root of Nightmares, Petra's Run completion, many solo flawless dungeon completions (despite having no merit), and Nezarec Sublime Pantheon completion. We have a combined total of over 1,200 raid completions and over 1,500 dungeon completions.

Finishing the Reckoner title and confirming that Gambit f*cking sucks made me the happiest. Running day one dungeons brings me the most nostalgia.

Zhalo Supercell.

Can we give peace a chance?

Solver of puzzles, finder of ledges. Seen once in a blue moon, bringing high DPS and high survivability. If it can be solo flawless-ed, it will be.

I'm the ad clear b*tch and a damn good one at that.

Jack-of-all-trades, master of none. Serial ragebaiter. Dripmaster-in-chief.

I prioritize fun and playability over chasing big damage or "meta". I'd rather maximize a suboptimal build than use one that requires too much setup or feels bad to play
Do you have a favorite memory from Destiny?
That time I got a headshot sniper kill on Cammycakes. Beating the Witness for the first and only time with the boys has gotta be up there. Petra's Run. Too many to list.

It's not just right, it's necessary. Studies have shown looking fly improves DPS by 69%. Using a gun that doesn't match my fit throws off my mojo.

Trinity Ghoul would be my pick, but having never used a bow, Zhalo.
Anything else you want to say to the world?
She be Rhulking on my Disciple till I Strand.
