The lingering pool keeps damaging anything that stands in it, so fire at doorways and zones and let it finish a weakened opponent.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Handling build: Countermass, Proximity Grenades, Threat Detector and a handling mod for easier hits and faster swaps.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 id=\"lore\">Lore<\/h2>\n<p>The flavour text on Psychopomp reads, &quot;We&#39;ll bring you home.&quot; The story it tells centers on Olgurn, a Skyburner who carries out funeral rites for a dead ally and becomes the sole survivor of his unit on the Dreadnaught, creeping through tunnels with alien chitin affixed to his armour so he can set explosives. The name comes from the mythological figure who guides the dead to the afterlife.<\/p>\n\n<a href=\"https:\/\/epiccarry.com\/destiny-2\/boost\/beyond-light-raid-bundle\/\" class=\"blog-info\">\n    <div class=\"blog-info-svg\">\n        \n            \n            \n        \n    <\/div>\n    <div class=\"blog-info-text\">\n        <p class=\"main-text\" style=\"font-size:24px\"><strong>Get Boost For All Destiny 2: Raids<\/strong><\/p>\n        <p class=\"subtext\" style=\"font-size:18px\">From Crota&#8217;s End to Last With \u2014 Boost them All!<\/p>\n    <\/div>\n    <div class=\"blog-info-media\">\n        <img decoding=\"async\" width=\"130\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.epiccarry.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/raid-bundle-1.webp\" alt=\"Raid Bundle for Destiny 2\" title=\"Epiccarry\">\n    <\/div>\n<\/a>\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1792\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/epiccarry.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/What-is-an-Aerial-Denial-Frame-in-Destiny-2.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-21477\" title=\"Epiccarry\" srcset=\"https:\/\/epiccarry.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/What-is-an-Aerial-Denial-Frame-in-Destiny-2.webp 1792w, https:\/\/epiccarry.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/What-is-an-Aerial-Denial-Frame-in-Destiny-2-770x440.webp 770w, https:\/\/epiccarry.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/What-is-an-Aerial-Denial-Frame-in-Destiny-2-768x439.webp 768w, https:\/\/epiccarry.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/What-is-an-Aerial-Denial-Frame-in-Destiny-2-1536x878.webp 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1792px) 100vw, 1792px\" \/><figcaption><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n<a href=\"https:\/\/epiccarry.com\/destiny-2\/boost\/buy-d2-trials-of-osiris-service\/\" class=\"blog-info\">\n    <div class=\"blog-info-svg\">\n        \n            \n            \n        \n    <\/div>\n    <div class=\"blog-info-text\">\n        <p class=\"main-text\" style=\"font-size:24px\"><strong>Trials of Osiris Boost<\/strong><\/p>\n        <p class=\"subtext\" style=\"font-size:18px\">Trials Triumph &#8211;
