Destiny 2: Forsaken - How To Unlock All Three Enhanced Subclasses

In Destiny 2: Forsaken, every class gains an additional three power trees you can unlock to further enhance your Guardian’s awesome abilities. To earn these upgrades, you’ll need to find special items called ‘Seeds of Light’ — the first one is easy, the other two? Well, that’s when things get a little more complicated.

Here, I’m going to break down everything you need to know if you’re aiming to unlock every power for your Guardian. There are some really good ones too, so it’s worth it. The first ‘Seed of Light’ is straight-forward, and possible to grab in the Tangled Shore. The other two can only be earned in the Dreaming City, which is difficult to unlock all on its own. Strap yourself in, and scroll down if you’re curious about earning all three power trees.

How To Unlock All Three Enhanced Subclasses | 3 ‘Seeds of Light’ Guide

To unlock the bonus subclass power trees in Forsaken, you’ll need an item called a ‘Seed of Light’ — the first one is easy. The other two are hard. Here’s how to get all three.

Getting The First Seed of Light

Complete the first mission in the Destiny 2: Forsaken DLC and you’ll get a milestone to hunt down ‘Visions of Light’ — these items drop from boss enemies, or just randomly. Complete Public Events in the Tangled Shore, and you’ll earn 100% in no time.

After completing the challenge, you’ll be directed to Io to play through a story mission. Part of the way through the mission, you’ll gain the Seed of Light, and you can use it to get one of the three power trees. It’s very simple and straightforward.

Getting The Second & Third Seed of Light

The real challenge comes when you need to get the second and third Seed of Light. These are only available in The Dreaming City, a special location that can be unlocked after completing the Forsaken main story campaign. After finishing the story, talk to everyone on the Tower and in the Tangled Shore, and you’ll make a new mission appear.

Complete the mission to enter the Dreaming City. To get the Seeds of Light in the Dreaming City, you’ll need to complete a special Public Event called the Blind Well. The Blind Well is located in the cathedral, through the massive doors found in the Divalian Mists. At the top, you can activate the event with special items with different tiers. You can purchase these tiered items from Petra Venj in exchange for dark fragments.

To get the second Seed of Light, you need to complete the Tier 2 Blind Well. This challenge is recommended for Guardians with PL 520+. There’s a small chance a Seed of Light will drop, so it might take many attempts.

When a Seed of Light does drop, a new mission will appear on Io. Complete it to unlock your next power upgrade.

The third Seed of Light drops from Kalli, the first boss in The Last Wish raid. Join a team and defeat this first challenging encounter to earn your third subclass.
