At ''Destiny 2'''s launch, subclasses were overhauled multiple times, with the implementation of level trees taking the former game's system place. Guardians have the choice of selecting one of two different ability focuses for each subclass, being locked into that particular path. With the release of the [[Forsaken]] expansion, another tree, usually with a new Super, was added to each Subclass. With the release of the [[New Light]] Campaign, the Upgrade Points system was removed, and subclass trees were fully unlocked upon the completion of their respective Quest.

Players start the game with a given Light subclass, and can obtain the others after completing a Quest given by [[Ikora Rey]] in the [[Tower (Destiny 2)|Tower]], further unlocking abilities through buying them from her with [[Glimmer]] and meditating at the nearby Altar. Stasis subclasses are obtained by completing the [[Beyond Light Campaign]], with Aspects and other abilities obtained through post-campaign Quests, and Fragments acquired by completing [[Bounty|Bounties]] given by the [[Exo Stranger]] on [[Europa]].
