'''Abilities''' are the various powers or weapons that beings across the [[Destiny (franchise)|Destiny]] universe are able to use.
===Set 1 - Grenade Abilities===
*Solar Grenade—A grenade that creates a flare of Solar Light which continually damages enemies trapped inside.
*Firebolt Grenade—A grenade that unleashes bolts of Solar Light at nearby enemies.
*Fusion Grenade—An explosive grenade that causes bonus damage when attached to its target.


==Overview==
===Set 2 - Movement Abilities===
Abilities are classified as techniques, attacks, weaponry, or powers that are not the primary handheld weapon the entity using them attacks with. This includes grenades, movement abilities, unique attacks/gimmicks used by [[Raid]] and [[Strike]] bosses, and more. The use of abilities can be stopped with [[Void#Verbs|Suppression]] effects, and their regeneration slowed by [[Stasis#Verbs|Slow]] effects, [[Modifier]]s or [[Champion|Anti-Overload]] weapons.
*Balanced Glide—Glide jump ability provides bonuses to both speed and control.
*Focused Burst—Glide jump ability provides an initial burst of speed.
*Controlled Glide—Glide jump ability provides better directional control while in the air.


===Guardian Abilities===
===Set 3 - Super Ability===
Guardians can choose their abilities based on the [[Subclass]] they use. All Guardian abilities deal [[Elemental damage]], and have a cooldown period. The effects of Guardian abilites can be modified, even drastically, by various effects, namely Aspects, Fragments and Exotic Armor.
*'''[[Daybreak]]'''—Weave Solar Light into blades and smite your foes from the skies.


====Movement Abilities====
===Set 4 - Class Abilities===
{{Main}}[[Movement Ability]]
*Healing Rift—Conjure a well of Light that continually heals those inside it.
Movement abilities define how a Guardian jumps. Hunters can do multiple jumps across the air, Titans move upwards in a burst, and Warlocks glide in the direction they are facing. Movement abilities are shared across the same class. All subclasses share three, but can have their own exclusive ones.  
*Empowering Rift—Conjure a well of Light that increases the attack power of those inside it.


====Grenade Abilities====
===Set 5 - Passive Path 1: Attunement Of Sky===
{{Main}}[[Grenade]]
*Winged Sun—Engage your enemies in mid-flight. Fire weapons and throw grenades while gliding.
Grenades are explosive abilities that deal heavy or continuous damage, weaken the enemies, or stenghten their allies. They are shared across classes. Their cooldown depends on Discipline.
*Heat Rises— Airborne kills recharge your grenade and melee energy. Casting Daybreak instantly refills all your ability energy.
*Swift Strike—Strike an enemy with this melee ability to burn your target and temporarily increase your movement an reload speed.
*Icarus Dash—Activate while in midair to dodge.


====Melee Abilities====
===Set 6 - Passive Path 2: Attunement Of Flame===
{{Main}}[[Melee]]
*Igniting Touch—Strike an enemy with this melee ability to burn them and cause them to explode.
Melees are abilities connected to close combat. Some melee abilties create visible effects, while others simply increase the power or utility of a basic melee attack. They are exclusive to a class' subclass. Their cooldown depends on Strengh.
*Fated For The Flame— Daybreak projectiles seek targets as they travel and, upon impact, launch a streak of deadly flames.
*Everlasting Fire—Killing an enemy with Daybreak extends its duration.
*Phoenix Dive—Quickly descend from mid-air and regenerate health.


====Class Abilities====
==Voidwalker==
{{Main}}[[Class Ability]]
{{quote|From the smallest atoms bloom the greatest explosions.|Class Description}}
Introduced in ''[[Destiny 2]]'', Class Abilities are moves that reinforce a class' role. All subclasses share two, but can have their own exclusive ones, with Hunters are capable of quick Dodges, Titans can create temporary Barricades, and Warlocks can create Wells to increase their damage or regeneration. Their cooldown depends on the Class' stat (Mobility, Resilience or Recovery).


====Super Abilities====
===Set 1 - Grenade Abilities===
{{Main}}[[Super]]
*Vortex Grenade: A grenade that creates a vortex which continuously damages enemies trapped inside.
Super abilities are game-changing moves that enable Guardians to survive overwhelming odds. Supers allow Guardians to deal massive damage in an instant, kill huge hordes of enemies, alter their movesets temporarily, or enormously increase their strength and resilience. All subclasses have at least one super. Super cooldown depends on Intellect.
*Scatter Grenade: A grenade that splits into multiple submunitions that cover a large area upon detonation.
*Axion Bolt: A bolt of Void Light that forks into smaller bolts which seek out enemies.


====Aerial Moves====
===Set 2 - Movement Abilities===
Some subclasses allow the Guardian to use an additional move while in the air. Examples are the quick Icarus Dash or the plunging Shatterdive. They usually have fixed, short cooldowns.
*Strafe Glide: Upgrades Glide for better directional control.
*Burst Glide: Upgrades Glide for strong speed boosts.
*Blink: Replaces Glide with short distance teleportation.


===Enemy Abilities===
===Set 3 - Super Ability===
Enemy abilities are defined as all the attacks enemies do without using their wielded weapon or fists, as well as most special movement modes like the [[Vex]]'s teleportation. This includes the use of Grenades. Enemy abilities have cooldowns as well, though less apparent than a Guardian's. While enemy abilities are exclusive to one base enemy type, [[Ultra]] enemies can often use abilites of other enemies, such as how [[Crota, Son of Oryx]] uses a [[Wizard]]'s Darkness Blast, and they often possess abilities crucial to the progression of their battle.
