Destiny 2‘s Aspects are essentially unique ability/kit modifiers that can define a Guardian’s niche within their specific subclass. Introduced with the Stasis Darkness subclass as part of theBeyond LightDLC and subsequently expanded to the game’s Solar, Void, and Arc subclasses as part of the Light 3.0 update, it was a given that the same feature would also be available with Strand abilitiesfeatured in theLightfallDLC. As one would expect, there’s a bunch to choose from, though most of them aren’t available across the board, for all Guardian classes.
Instead, Aspects are often dedicated to specific classes to keep them distinctive, yet flexible enough to tackle a wide variety of situations.Destiny 2‘s Strand Aspects often lean into the characters’ mobility and enhance it accordingly. Since the delightful grappling hook is a defining feature of Strand, it’s not hard to see why Bungie would go into this direction. Find all ofDestiny 2‘s Strand Aspects featured below!
All Destiny 2 Strand Aspects
As part of theLightfallDLC and several subsequent content releases, Bungie has amassed a number of unique Strand Aspects for each of the three Guardian classes. These are as follows:
Destiny 2 Season 22 Strand Aspects
Bungie launched three all-new Strand Aspects as part ofDestiny 2‘s Season of the Witch. Each of the three Guardian classes gets access to a specific Aspect, allowing them to tune their Strand focus in exciting new ways:
Players should note that these are available for purchase from the Pouka pond on Neptune, and they’re not a particularly huge investment.
Will Destiny 2: The Final Shape Have New Strand Aspects?
Finally, it’s worth highlighting the fact that, for theFinal ShapeDLC, Bungie has seemingly decided to lean heavily into the Light side of the Guardian ability equation. Specifically, there arenew Supers and abilities comingto Solar Warlocks, Void Titans, and Arc Hunters, greatly enhancing their kit variety. Strand and its Aspects, as well as the entirety of Stasis, have seemingly been left by the wayside for the DLC itself.
It is, however, highly likely that more abilities, Supers, and Aspects for both Strand and Stasis will be dropping in post-DLC, so fans of Darkness subclasses shouldn’t despair. This page will be updated accordingly as soon as Bungie publishes more information on these features!
