Learn all Hunter Prismatic Subclass Abilities, Fragments, Grenade, Super, and Aspects in the Destiny 2 Final Shape.
Remember this information: Prismatic is a new subclass coming to Destiny 2 with the Final Shape expansion on July 4, 2024. It’s unique and something we have never seen before in D2, but it nicely ties the Light and Dark forces in the game. Prismatic will allow players to “combine certain class abilities for different damage types.”
“The Prismatic Hunter is evasive and maneuverable, grappling around the battlefield and leaping to advantageous positions with Ascension. Their starting Prismatic build enables that maneuverability, with Winter’s Shroud providing a handy debuff that Stylish Executioner (which now triggers by defeating an enemy afflicted by any subclass debuff) can activate from, providing easily accessible Invisibility to reposition to wherever you need to be with safety.” – Prismatic Hunter Subclass and Abilities Description in Destiny 2.
Prismatic Subclass Overview
Dual Abilities:
- The Prismatic subclass enables you to use abilities from both Light and Darkness. Your Super, melee, grenade, and Aspect slots can be filled with a mix of abilities from all five damage types: Arc, Solar, Void, Stasis, and Strand.
Movement and Class Abilities:
- You can access all available movement modes and class abilities, including subclass-specific ones such as Phoenix Dive, Acrobat’s Dodge, and Thruster. This flexibility supports various build-crafting possibilities.
Buildcrafting and New Interactions:
- The Prismatic subclass is designed to enable unique build combinations by making underused abilities more relevant and creating new interchanges. Some aspects were adjusted before the release of the Final Shape to enhance these unique combinations, keeping the gameplay fresh and engaging.
Prismatic Transcendence
Light and Dark Meters:
- Beneath your Super bar, you’ll see two meters: one for Light and one for Dark. As you deal damage with Light abilities, the Light meter fills up. Similarly, the Dark meter fills up when you use Dark abilities.
Achieving Transcendence:
- When both the Light and Dark meters are entirely filled, you reach a heightened state of power called “Transcendence.” This state grants you enhanced abilities and boosts your performance, providing significant advantages in combat.
Starting Builds and Prismatic Subclass Progression
Initial Access:
- From the first mission of The Final Shape, you will have access to a Prismatic build. This build includes a set of Light and Darkness abilities, Aspects, and a full set of Fragments.
Expanding Capabilities:
- As you progress through The Final Shape, you’ll unlock additional abilities and customization options, allowing you to refine and enhance your Prismatic build further.
