How to Unlock All Prismatic Aspects and Fragments in Destiny 2

Once you’ve found your way into the Traveler, you’ll find yourself besieged by enemies. Including those that are totally new to you — the Dread. But some of these enemies will be absolutely immune to all damage unless you Transcend and attack them to break through their shields.

But the Prismatic subclass is more than just a blending of light and dark. It’s an entirely new way to craft your character’s build. And to do that, you’ll need to unlock the Prismatic aspects. There are 36 Prismatic aspects you can unlock for your character. And to unlock these aspects, you’ll need to go through the campaign then knock out a few quests.

The first Prismatic aspects you’ll get will be at the end of the campaign mission Temptation, where Cayde-6 and Glint will ask you to find Crow. Right after the big boss battle, you’ll find a Prismatic chest which will grant you two Prismatic Aspects. For warlocks, this is Incinerator Snap, which can replace the default Stasis melee Penumbral Blast, and Storm Grenade, which can replace Vortex Grenade.

The ability to blend abilities from separate subclasses into one build opens up an entirely new world for build crafting. And more of these familiar aspects will be unlocked as you continue each of the campaign mission and slowly master the Prismatic subclass.

The real new abilities, however, will come through the Fragments. There are a grand total of 21 Fragments, significantly more than the standard 14-16. Fragments in Prismatic are unlocked for all your characters as soon as you get them.

Unfortunately, you won’t unlock every ability through the campaign. You’ll be able to unlock Healing Grenades, the Arc Aspect, the Darkness Super, and other abilities by completing the Ergo Sum exotic quest, Destined Heroes. This quest in particular will make you complete the sub quests “Lost in the Light,” and “Found in the Dark”, which will give you two Light and Dark abilities each. Light abilities will come from “Lost in the Light” and Dark abilities from “Found in the Dark”

We’re still in hot pursuit of how to get the rest, so check back later for a fully exhaustive list.
