Transcendence is a new gameplay mechanic introduced in The Final Shape DLC for Destiny 2. This power is only accessible when using the Prismatic Subclass and allows Guardians to access their own unique Transcendent Grenade. Here is how to activate Transcendence State.
How to Build Transcendence
Transcendence is a power built from dealing Light and Darkness damage equally and is a “second Super” found beneath your regular Super bar. Once filled, you will be able to transcend, and the bar will slowly drain after activation.
- The left (blue) side of the bar represents the damage you have dealt with Light damage
- The right (orange) side represents Dark damage
You can build the bar up from dealing both weapon and ability damage, so be sure to set your weapon loadout and Prismatic Subclass to have balanced sources of damage from Light and Dark.
How to Activate Transcendence
After filling both sides of the Light and Dark bar by dealing damage via both sources, it will turn pinkish purple, indicating you are ready to become Transcendent. To activate the power, you must use whichever button you have the Transcendence Ability bound to in Settings.
- Mouse and Keyboard: Default base-key bind is ‘B’
- Controller: Default base-key bind is pressing both sticks (L3/R3 or LS/RS)
