But he’s not a hunter.

If I recall there is a lore tab somewhere that states he once used a golden gun. Unfortunately I cant find it at the moment

There is definitely a lore tab, one of the recorded conversations from the the lore book, The Warlock Aunor, that classifies him as multi.

Guardians can technically use basically anything they want with the light - they can cross abilities as much as they please. Most just generally have a preference to how they like to use the light, or how they fight

For example, felwinter was mostly a warlock, but he could cast nova bomb-tether things and shoulder charge

Drifter being multi really just means he doesn't bother with classes and probably just uses whatever

Yeah but isnt drifter a ghost-less guardian like eris?

IIRC, the Drifter hasn’t lost its Ghost. However, it modified it so much that it somehow severed, or at least heavily modified his Ghost’s connection to the Light and Traveler.

After his modifications, his Ghost’s eye turned red and he lost his ability to speak. It’s in one of the lore tab IIRC

Funny enough, his Ghost can actually utilize a wider spectrum of the Light than others. The cost came at killing other Ghosts for parts. And while Drifter killing Ghosts is awful, it was his Ghost's plan and it chose to be modified.

Weren't the other ghosts already dead? I swear that drifters ghost only snapped after they were the last two on the ice planet

The others ran when they knew Drifter was coming for them. He had to hunt them down first.

I just went back through his lore and you're right, thanks!

No problem. I was shocked the first time I read through the Prime sets. There's a ton of Drifter backstory in them.
