Destiny 2 is filled with all manner of mechanics that can make players feel more powerful such as increasing the level to match the power cap which can take time. Others methods, like collecting Orbs of Power, give players an instant boost of power, allowing them to unleash their Super abilities far more often, laying waste to groups of enemies or doing vast amounts of damage in a boss battle.
In Destiny 2, Orbs of Power are generated from killing enemies with Super abilities or by achieving multi-kills with masterworked weapons. A small number of Orbs of Power will also be generated when a player initially casts their Super. They look like small orbs of glowing light, and when generated with a Super will drop from the Guardian who cast it. When created by scoring multi-kills with a masterworked weapon they will drop from the enemy that is killed.

To pick up Orbs of Power players need only walk over them, gaining a small amount of energy for their Super ability. If the Super is already fully charged, Orbs of Power cannot be collected and will remain on the ground. Some challenges and quests in Destiny 2 may require players to generate or get a specific number of Orbs of Power. This is an important distinction, as to progress a quest that needs players to generate Orbs of Power, they must create the Orbs themselves. For a quest that requires players to get Orbs of Power, they can pick up Orbs from any source. There are certain activities that players can take part in to finish these tasks quickly. Players who have access to Season of the Chosen's H.E.L.M can focus on Battlegrounds. This matchmade activity pits three Guardians against vast numbers of enemies, giving ample opportunity for multi-kills, and Supers.
The Blind Well at the Dreaming City is also an excellent activity for both generating and getting Orbs of Power. This wave-based activity gives players an easy way to make their own Orbs of Power, and collect Orbs of Power generated by other players. With a full group, it is possible to keep an endless wave of Supers going, as players can collect all the Orbs generated by their fellow Guardians. It is important to note that players can only collect Orbs of Power that they generate themselves if they come from Masterworked weapon multi-kills. A player cannot collect Orbs of Power generated by their own Super ability. Finally, any Orbs of Power that have been generated but not collected will disappear if a player is killed.
With Season of the Chosen underway, Destiny 2 servers are teeming with Guardians eager to take on the forces of the Cabal, unlock enhancements for the Hammer of Proving, and take the fight to the enemy, so players will have no problem finding fellow Guardians to help them get plenty of Orbs of Power.
Destiny 2 is available now for PC, PS4, PS5, Stadia, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X.
