Highlights
- Destiny 2 players can use the game’s armor transmog system to recreate characters from other media, like Elden Ring’s boss Mohg.
- Fashion in Destiny 2 is a compelling aspect of the game, with players using various armor and shaders to create unique looks.
- The Destiny Fashion subreddit community praised a player’s creation of a Warlock guardian resembling Mohg, with hopes for future customization options.
A creative Destiny 2 player has used the game’s extensive armor transmog system to turn their guardian into Mohg, a boss from Elden Ring. Bungie has given players a powerful tool to bring their love of characters from other media to the first-person shooter with the addition of the Appearance Customization System in Destiny 2.
Players have taken advantage of the numerous armor and shaders available in the game to create characters, such as Captain Enoch from the Disney+ TV show Star Wars: Ahsoka and even the Doom Slayer. Fashion in Destiny 2 is one of the game’s more compelling aspects, in addition to the narrative and gameplay. Bungie even encourages players to experiment with the transmog system by offering several incentives such as an exclusive emblem only obtainable in the Fashion Show competitions. Earlier this year, the company added the highly requested Best Dressed commendation so that other players can even vote for their favorite best-looking guardian at the end of activities such as Strikes and Crucible matches.
A user going by the handle BugCreative1984 posted a screenshot of their Warlock on the Destiny Fashion subreddit as Mohg, one of Elden Ring’s optional but challenging bosses. The player used a combination of several armor pieces, ornaments, and shaders to bring to life the Lord of Blood in the world of Destiny 2. BugCreative1984 opted for the unkindled version of the Sunlit Robes obtainable during the Solstice event and the black, red, and golden tones from the New Monarchy Regalia to replicate Mohg’s ornate robes.
The post was well received on the subreddit, earning around 1.5K upvotes and users complimenting the look and making references to Elden Ring. One player in the thread reminisced about the Ram, an exotic helmet from Destiny, as it would complete the look of Mohg’s horned head. While Destiny 2 players would love for the Ram exotic to be brought to the game, as of now, there are no horn-like helmets, so BugCreative1984 improvised the look by using the spiky Corrupting Echo Cover headpiece.
In just a few more weeks, Destiny 2 players will have access to even more armor pieces to customize their guardians with the launch of Season of the Wish. Bungie revealed the new season earlier this week through the completion of a puzzle that reignited fan theories of one of the game’s longest mysteries – the 15th Wish. While, for now, no one knows what the new season holds, Destiny 2 fashion experts will undoubtedly be able to showcase a broader range of characters from other media using the newly introduced gear.
