Wretches are a class of Fallen warrior, introduced in Destiny 2.
Overview[edit]
Wretches are two-armed, spear-wielding Fallen. These brave, or desperate, Fallen warriors are armed with Arc Spears, which they are sent to use in melee despite their frailty. Other than their weapon, they can be distinguished from Dregs by their enclosed helmets. The rank seemingly existed at the time of the Dark Age, though it fell out of use before being restored with the rise of the House of Dusk. After their reappearance, they were employed by the other Fallen groups of the Solar System.
Gameplay[edit]
Wretches are melee cannon fodder troops, and take the place of dual Shock Dagger Dregs in Destiny 2. They rush into combat brandishing their spears, attempting to both slice and electrocute their targets. They can do many attacks with these weapons, with simple stabs, spinning slices and rushing overhead strikes. Their length also gives them a longer reach than other melee units. However, their attacks have a long wind up time and they are very weak. As cannon fodder combatants, they can often die to a single melee attack.
