Aspects are a key part of each subclass in Destiny 2, but so far, there has been no choice in terms of what to use while playing Strand. That changes in the upcoming Season 21, Season of the Deep, as Bungie has now revealed the new Aspect that each class will receive.Bungie has previously said it would be expanding the array of Aspects next season, but outside of revealing the names of each one, it had offered no details on what they would entail. In the latest This Week at Bungie post, it explained, "Our…

Like previous Destiny 2 seasons, Season 21 will see new weapons enter the loot pool and several others leave it to make room for the latest arrivals. Bungie has detailed which weapons will be leaving soon in case you still need to add them to your collection, but for fans of Strand, there's something to look forward to.New Strand weapons--the first of their kind--will debut within Iron Banner and Gambit in Destiny 2, and while exact details are being kept under wraps, Bungie has revealed which archetypes…

Destiny 2: Lightfall's new Strand subclass, a set of destructive powers that combines destructive offense with a heightened sense of mobility, is one of the more exciting additions in the expansion. With all the Fragments for the subclass being unlocked ahead of this week's raid, players have begun experimenting more with these new abilities, and so far, some of the builds have been incredibly wild to see in action.So far, players have been using the new Grapple ability for both offense and defense as…

After the Destiny 2: Lightfall campaign, you're given basic Strand abilities, but you'll need to purchase grenades, Aspects, and Fragments from the Pouka Pond in Hall of Heroes on Neomuna. Strand Meditations are currency stored in your inventory that let you purchase additional abilities. Once you've unlocked the full suite of abilities, you'll then be able to start a quest to obtain a new Exotic sidearm, Final Warning. Here's what to expect.You'll earn 300 Strand Meditations by speaking to Nimbus if you…

Destiny 2: Lightfall's new Strand subclass is not available to you until you complete the campaign, but even then, it's not fully available. That's because you have to unlock Aspects and Fragments--the system first introduced with Stasis that lets you customize how the subclass works--over time using Strand Meditations. But even if you've done enough grinding to have tons of those, more than half of the available Fragments are locked until a future date. Or at least, that was the plan, as Bungie has now…

A paracausal superposition? It’s finally here. Lightfall has been released for Guardians worldwide and with it comes the new Darkness subclass, Strand. The campaign reveals a lot of information about this mysterious new power, and Osiris is present to hold our hands and help us uncover its true capabilities. Some Guardians may remember Beyond Light, where the full power of Stasis wasn’t readily available and some steps needed to be completed before we could wield it. Strand is no different, and there are some steps to…

Maybe this’ll reinvigorate the game for a lot of people Exotic (unique) weapons in the Destiny series have always been a way to add more flavor into the game: and that’s especially the case with marquee expansion-centric exotics. Bungie just showed off seven more that are arriving in the mix with the Lightfall expansion, and things look promising so far: especially from an aesthetic perspective. Here are the exotics shown off in the newest Destiny 2: Lightfall trailer, as well as how they work: Final Warning…

How do you solve a problem like Disney’s live action remakes? Well, from the Mouse House’s point of view, it’s arguable whether there really is any problem at all. After all, Alice in Wonderland, Beauty and the Beast, Aladdin and The Lion King all took more than $1bn at the global box office, while 2016’s The Jungle Book only just fell short of that milestone.The pandemic (and poor notices for Tim Burton’s slightly pointless Dumbo) have led to subsequent remakes turning up on Disney+ instead, which makes it harder to…
