Guardians, get ready to rewrite the playbook in Destiny 2’s upcoming Season 22! The armor team is breaking new ground with an epic twist – introducing “Elemental Orbs.” Unleash your Arc, Solar, or Void might to crush enemies and forge these mighty orbs. What happens next is pure elemental chaos – explosive reactions that zap, scorch, or combust based on the orb’s core.
But that’s not all, fellow Guardians. Delve deep into the Artifact perks and unlock a world of possibilities entwined with the enigmatic Strand Tangles. Brace for allies to ‘borrow’ your orbs, sparking an electric dance of camaraderie and competition.

A quick heads-up regarding a minor hiccup in the gears of Destiny 2’s Season 22. We’ve noticed a glitch that’s causing the Overload Machine Guns and Overload Hand Cannon perks to skip a beat when in action – not the intended rhythm, we assure you. Likewise, the Anti-Barrier Bow and Unstoppable Fusion Rifle are strutting a bit too confidently, overcharging their weapons contrary to their in-game explanations. Not to worry, though – these hiccups are mere gremlins in the system and will be ironed out in an upcoming patch. We’ve got our sights set on mending these discrepancies, and we’ll be sharing more about it through our trusty channel, @BungieHelp.
