Which Super Ability is the Best in Destiny?

So you might have managed to loot the best gear that Destiny has to offer, you may have saved Earth from the invading darkness, but that won’t do you much good if you’re still getting wiped out when it comes to using your Super ability.
Super abilities are the extremely powerful attacks that each Guardian can use, you’ll have to wait for your Super metre to fill, or go out in search of Orbs of Light in order to use it though, as having powers this strong aren’t things to be taken lightly.

At first you’ll only be granted one power to use, but as soon as you hit level 15 and unlock your subclass, you’ll be able to decide if your Super would be better used in a different role, in the case of the Titan class for example, you’ll be given the option to provide a bullet-proof shelter for your comrades, instead of focussing on taking out enemies directly.


So here’s what Super Abilities you will have to choose from:

 

Hunter
Golden Gun
Part of the Gunslinger subclass that is open to Hunters, using your Golden Gun Super Ability gives you access to a devastatingly powerful hand cannon, that uses all the power of the Sun to deliver crippling damage to an opponent.
You’ll get three shots, or until your Super bar is emptied to take out as many enemies as you can. When used in the PvP Crucible a single shot on target with the Golden Gun is enough to kill another player.
There a few mods that effect the way Golden Gun works. Deadeye will increase your accuracy with the super-weapon, Combustion will cause enemies shot with the Golden Gun to explode, doing damage to other enemies around them, and Gunfighter will reduce the cooldown of the weapon, letting you use it more often.
Arc Blade
The other option for Hunters comes with the Bladedancer subclass, and gives both the Hunter and their knife all the power of Arc energy. When Arc Blade is used Hunters can quickly sprint at any opponent within range, slashing them with their knife. The Arc energy in the knife will then envelop the targets, doing massive damage, enough to kill your foe with one hit.
Mods that you can apply to Arc Blade are Showstopper, which adds on a damage-dealing explosion around you, Razor’s Edge, a ground-based wave that extends about 15 meters, and Vanish, which allows Hunters to disappear completely when holding the fire button with Arc Blade Active.
