Why do Warlocks hate Hunters?

So, I'm playing Destiny as a Warlock and I noticed that some of my gear had very 'anti-hunter' descriptions. One said something along the lines of Hunters not being able to shoot straight and other said Warlocks will never 'cede their position' to the Hunters. Anyone know why there's bad blood between the two, or if there's tension between all the classes, or did I just pick a class that happens to be really pissy? EDIT: So there is some tension between each of the classes. The shit talk mainly goes on between the Warlocks and Huntards. The Huntards and Titans also have a few jabs at each other. Titans and Warlocks seem to get along. Edit 2: Hunters* Edit 3: Holy shit, nearly 1500 replies now. This post was from the Beta in July and it just picked up a lot more steam.

  • The Hunters and the Warlocks are locked in a fashion war. Hunter gear: "Your missions: Protect the city. Look better than warlocks. But don't look like you're trying" Hunter gear: "Tell the Warlocks your cloak is frabjuous. They respect words they don't understand." Warlock gear: "Warlocks are expected to wear ceremonial robes. We cannot cede the *sartorial struggle to the Hunters." *Definition of sartorial: of or relating to tailoring, clothes, or style of dress.

      • Warlocks hate hunters because of their superb style. Obviously.

        • It's probably just a parallel to the military thing, ie. Navy guys like to talk shit about the airforce, cost guard, navy seals, etc. And vice versa.

            • I thought hunters were the outlaws and people of the wild where the Warlocks are very proper and classy people so I would assume such personalities wouldn't mix well

                I believe it is something to do with the hunters understand that the travelers not all light and shiny happy fun time. And the warlocks on the other hand are devoted to the traveler. But what do I know I'm just taking a wild guess.

              • I assumed they get along just fine as you see their is a head Exo Hunter, Awoken Titan, & human Warlock all gathered around a table working together. I always assumed it was like a loving sibling rivalry or of the like.

                • There's also a quote on armor that says "Aphorisms to Upset Warlocks" in the descriptions on armor. I really don't know why though. I like to think Hunters don't believe in "magic"

                • Ancient blood rivalry. Really it all started after an epic thumb war in ancient times and a true winner couldn't be determined. Quisax the hunter thought she won, Thungrop the warlock thought he won. Then they started spreading rumors and the whole thing just turned nasty.

                      • It's just Bungie poking fun at what they have made. Also it could be an actual argument that went down at Bungie between a Hunter and a Warlock. [spoiler]Mysteries everywhere[/spoiler]

                        • It's a joke. The hunter gear has descriptions bragging about looking cooler than warlocks and stuff like that. It's probably due to the nature of the classes. Think of warlocks as the knights of the magical round table and hunters as space cowboy vigilantes
