Originally used to upgrade the attack value on Legendary Armor during Year 1, they have since been phased out of use in favor of other material systems. It is still currently required to level of Year 1 [[Vault of Glass (raid)|Vault of Glass]] Armor, and can be obtained from the Vault itself, or purchased from [[The Speaker]] with [[Ascendant Energy]].


{{loot}}
In ''Destiny 2'', Ascendant Shards were reintroduced as an Exotic material used to masterwork Legendary and Exotic [[Armor]], unlock Exotic catalysts from craftable Exotic weapons by reshaping it at the [[Relic (Mars)|Relic]] on [[Mars]], and purchase Exotic weapons from past content at the [[Monument To Lost Lights]] in the [[Tower (Destiny 2)|Tower]]. They are acquired from challenging activities such as higher difficulty [[Nightfall]]s, [[Trials of Osiris]], the season finale quests from the '''[[Season of the Haunted]]''' onwards, resetting ritual reputation ranks for the first time, or bought from [[Rahool]].
 
Ascendant Shards can also be obtained from the paid track of the current Season Pass at varying ranks. Rarely, in-game events may reward Ascendant Shards such as 2020's [[The Dawning|Dawning]].
