Adherent: Difference between revisions

From Destinypedia, the Destiny wiki

(Changing to past tense as all adherents, including Enkaar, have been sunset. Also I don't think those is misnamed Adherents, I think those are just Acolytes with rifles. Are wire rifle vandals named "Wrecker"s or something? Nah, they just have a different weapon.)
