Top 5 Gameplay Strategies for Destiny 2

Here are 5 top gameplay strategies for Destiny 2:
- Synergize Your Gear and Subclass (Creating a “Build”): Your abilities, Exotic armor, and weapon perks should all complement each other to create a powerful loop. Focus on maximizing one or two key stats like Resilience or Discipline to get fast ability cooldowns that feed into your overall damage or survival strategy.
- Match Element to Enemy Shields (Elemental Counterplay): Always carry weapons of different energy types (Arc, Solar, Void, Stasis, Strand) to quickly break enemy shields. Breaking a shield with a matching element causes an explosive effect, making the combat loop much more efficient, especially in high-level content.
- Master Movement and Positioning (Survival and Engagement): Use your jump, slide, and Class Ability (Dodge/Rift/Barricade) to constantly reposition, break line of sight, and avoid damage. In PvP, use cover and peek-shooting to minimize your exposure, and in PvE, always look for safe lanes to clear enemies.
- Prioritize High-Value Targets (Target Selection): In all activities, focus fire on immediate threats like Champions, Major enemies (orange or yellow bar), and high-damage-dealing enemies first. Clearing the most dangerous opponents stabilizes the combat area, allowing you to deal with minor adds safely.
- Utilize Community Resources (Knowledge is Power): Consult resources like Light.gg, DIM (Destiny Item Manager), and community builds to quickly assess weapon rolls and optimal armor stats. This saves you significant time and effort by letting you know which gear pieces are worth keeping and upgrading.
