Prismatic Subclass offers 21 fragments for all three classes in Destiny 2, including the Facet of Command.
Players gain access to the new Prismatic subclass with the Final Shape expansion. Firstly, it’s unique and combines specific class abilities for different damage types. Using dark and light abilities, buffs or debuffs fill two corresponding meters, and once they are fully charged, your character enters the special state called Transcendence. Moreover, Transcendence functions like a mini super and busts your defense and offensive capabilities.
Once you unlock a Facet of Command Prismatic Fragment, it becomes available for all your characters.
Facet of Command in Destiny 2
The facet of Command is a new fragment in the Prismatic subclass introduced with the Final Shape expansion in Destiny 2. Here’s an in-depth look at what this fragment does, its benefits, and how it can be effectively used in different builds and gear setups.
The Facet of Command fragment grants the following effects:
- Freezing or Suppressing a target reloads your equipped weapons and increases stability, aim assist, and airborne effectiveness.
- Defeating Frozen or Suppressed targets creates a Stasis Shard or Void Breach.
- Requires 1 Subclass energy
Please Note: The facet of Command received a fix in Bungie’s recent hotfix: Fixed an issue where the Facet of Command reloading behavior could be activated repeatedly with no cooldown.

1. Locate the Facet of Command Prismatic Chest:
- Go to the west of The Impasse.

Benefits and Usage
suppose you rely on freezing or suppressing enemies in your playstyle. In that case, the Facet of Command is an influential fragment that enhances weapon handling and effectiveness while providing additional benefits when applying crowd control abilities. Particularly effective in high-intensity combat scenarios such as Nightfalls, Raids, and PvP, where quick weapon handling and ability regeneration are necessary. Additionally, you should aim to defeat frozen or suppressed targets to generate Stasis Shards or Void Breaches for more class benefits.
Hunters
Hunters can use the Facet of Command fragment with abilities like Silence and Squall (Stasis Super) to freeze or void to suppress targets. This will reload their weapons and enhance their weapon handling, making follow-up shots more effective. Creating Stasis Shards or Void Breaches further improves your ability to control the battlefield and regenerate abilities.
Titans
Titans can benefit from this fragment using abilities such as Glacial Quake (Stasis Super) or Suppressor Grenade (Void). Freezing or suppressing targets will reload your weapons and boost weapon handling stats to maintain offensive pressure. Similarly, the additional Stasis Shards or Void Breaches will help with sustain.
Warlocks
Warlocks can use this fragment with abilities like Winter’s Wrath (Stasis Super) or Nova Bomb (Void Super). Freezing or suppressing targets will reload your weapons and enhance weapon handling, making it easier to eliminate enemies. Creating Stasis Shards or Void Breaches will add ability regeneration and crowd control.
Gear Synergies
To maximize the potential of the Facet of Command, consider the following gear and mods:
- Hunters: Exotics like Graviton Forfeit (increases the duration of invisibility and recharges melee faster) can synergize well with this fragment by enhancing the suppression effects. Frostees (increases grenade, melee, and dodge regeneration while sprinting) can also be beneficial for maintaining ability uptime.
- Titans: Exotics like Doom Fang Pauldrons (Void melee kills recharge your Super) can pair well with the Void suppression aspect. Icefall Mantle (replaces Barricade with an overshield that can freeze targets) can complement the Stasis freezing abilities.
- Warlocks: Eye of Another World (highlights priority targets and improves ability regeneration) can also help maintain ability uptime.
