What is The Final Shape?
This will also usher in the era of anew subclass: Prismatic.
Historically, Destiny 2 updates throughout the year with a single major expansion, and several smaller seasonal updates.
This will make high tier activities much more accessible to anyone.
Instead of four Seasons, there will be a trio of three-act episodes that divide up the following year.
Each will feature new stories, Exotic weapons, and exotic missions.
The battle pass will be revamped as part of this.
The main event at the launch of The Final Shape will be its extensive campaign.
However, there is a lot more than just story content coming as part of this expansion.
This will allow for some very unique builds, especially as players realise the most powerful combinations.
Prismatic Guardians will also gain access to new grenades with combined energies.
Titles get the electrified snare, an Arc/Strand hybrid that suspends enemies in the air and electrocutes them.
Warlocks get Freezing Singularity, which can create Void powered black holes surrounded by freezing Stasis Crystals.
Tormentors come from this group, which also features Strand-wielding Harbingers and Weavers, and the flying Grim.
These are the true personal army of The Witness.
This is a major departure from how Destiny 2 worked historically.
If you dismantled a deprecated classic to make room in your vault, you may be out of luck.
Changes to Power Level
The importance of Power Level for Guardians is also changing.
This means that playing with lower leveled friends will be viable.
They will contain new story content, new Exotic Missions, along with Exotic weapons and armour.
