What about new supers for the unmentioned subclasses?
TFS introduces three new supers, one each, for:
- Solar warlock
- Void titan
- Arc hunter

But what about the others? Does an arc Warlock not deserve a new third super? In S18 the two Stormtrance supers were merged -- as it was with arc/void Titans merging their roaming supers iirc. How about solar Titans, who never had a third super tbw, afaik? What about revamping void Hunters; does anyone even use the roaming knife one (Spectral Blades) outside of pvp... if even then?

Then there's Stasis & Strand. Stasis has only ever had one super per class. Seems like a giant missed opportunity for Titans to create a giant Ice Mech suit or something, that could roam about independently or be donned/piloted by the caster or anyone else in the party -- kind of like how anyone can use the new void Titan super's axes. (There's already a formula for the game having mecha allies: I refer you to the robots that backed us up in the final post-story mission for Season of the Seraph, the one which lead right into the opening cinematic of Lightfall).

Or a similar "summoner" super for Strand, in which a warlock presumably summons a giant threadling or whatever. There are tons of ideas for creating supers, and they're not really gonna be balanced anyway; Well of Radiance hogged the limelight for over 5.5 gd years, for instance. Supers are end up being the over-the-top "un-balancer" in a fight, regardless.

(There's never been summoner fantasy fulfillment in this game, until we had Strand, btw. Hence why I keep using summoner examples).

Honestly, it'd be harder to balance the game with new grenades and melees - oh wait, isn't that what the Prismatic "subclass" is doing to an extent? Ha ha.

Anyway, I digress. Bungie's made no mention of this, even as updates to be included in the three upcoming episodes... so I assume it's not happening.

I wanted at lest 1 new Super for darkness classes.

I'd much rather them give us a new Stasis/Strand Super rather than yet another light subclass, but hopefully the supers we are given work well.

Yep, I guess only time will tell now. Perhaps the post-TFS / post-year 7 future of D2 will update the darkness subclasses with new abilities, who knows.
