Destiny 2 Player's Mysterio-Themed Hunter is More Than Just Looks

Highlights

  • One Destiny 2 player transformed their character into Mysterio from the Marvel universe by expertly using in-game cosmetics.
  • The player also shared a list of every armor piece and shader required to create the look.

As a seasoned Destiny 2 gamer with over ten years of experience under my belt, I must say that this latest cosplay by Reddit user SoliloquyZero has left me utterly astounded. The attention to detail and dedication required to create a character that mirrors Mysterio, one of Marvel’s most iconic villains, is nothing short of remarkable.


As a Destiny 2 gamer, I’ve crafted an extraordinary Marvel crossover by transforming my Guardian into the notorious Spider-Man villain, Mysterio. With cosmetics, I’ve managed to create a striking resemblance, but it’s not just about looks – I’ve tailored my character’s abilities to mimic those of Mysterio, allowing me to truly embody the role of this cunning villain within the game.

In the thrilling world of Destiny 2, I’m utterly captivated by the allure of cosmetics. These in-game armors serve as a canvas for players like me, enabling us to craft distinct outfits and personalities for our Guardians as they traverse the cosmos. My Mysterio cosplay is just one instance showcasing players using these cosmetics to design virtual costumes. Another player recently transformed their Guardian into everyone’s favorite internet boogeyman, Slenderman, further demonstrating the creative potential of Destiny 2’s cosmetic offerings.

Reddit user SoliloquyZero showcased their Guardian character on the DestinyFashion subreddit, dressed up in gear and shaders that resembled Marvel’s Mysterio from the comics. The player detailed all the armor pieces and shaders they used to create this look, leaving fans in awe of their commitment and creativity.

Gear and Shaders Used To Make Mysterio In Destiny 2

  • Helmet: Limitless Subversion Casque with the Shards of Stillness Shader
  • Arms: Aphotic Lamellar Grips with the Twisting Strands Shader
  • Chest: Aphotic Lamellar Vest with the Twisting Strands Shader
  • Legs: Default Ornament with the Atmospheric Glow Shader
  • Cloak: Wild Hunt Cloak with the Nectar Dynamo Shader

Originally, Mysterio is a character from Marvel Comics’ Spider-Man series, but the user posted a Guardian resembling the live-action version of this character from the Marvel Studios film “Spider-Man: Far From Home,” played by Jake Gyllenhaal. Although the similarity isn’t completely accurate due to the constraints of cosmetics in Destiny 2, it still managed to impress fans who commented on the post, with many commending the user for their creativity and skill.

Instead of just resembling Mysterio, the player’s Guardian in Destiny 2 can also generate copies of themselves by utilizing the Clone feature from the Prismatic Hunter setup, much like Mysterio in Marvel comics who is renowned for his deception and using similar strategies against Spider-Man and other adversaries.

It was suggested by some players that Mysterio could more fittingly belong to the Warlock class in Destiny 2 due to its emphasis on magical powers. However, a user countered this argument, stating that the Hunter’s cape provided a better aesthetic fit for Mysterio. Meanwhile, another player has opted to turn their Guardian into Spider-Man, a character who often clashes with Mysterio and is likely present within the game.
