Strand Subclass

In Destiny 2, Guardians use the Solar, Void and Arc elements by wielding the power of Light granted by the Traveler. Stasis is the first darkness subclass, introduced in Beyond Light Expansion. Strand is the second manifestation of the darkness in elemental form.

Strand flows through you. As it flows through everything

Stasis was the first subclass that came out with Stasis 3.0 – the system that includes the aspects and fragments to make classes more customisable and powerful. Soon after, over months, other subclasses received 3.0 reworks. With the release of Lightfall expansion, guardians can use Strand Subclass 3.0, adding more playstyles, builds, powerful weapons, and unique abilities to the game.

How to unlock Strand Subclass

Players must own Ligthfall expansion and complete the main campaign in order to get access to all abilities and unlock the Strand subclass. Additionally, to unlock aspects and fragments, players must buy them from the special Vendor. The full Guide on How to unlock Strand Subclass.
