==Overview== | ==Overview== | ||
There have been two types of Resonant Splinter encountered by the [[Guardian]]s. The first type was found in [[Savathûn's Throne World]], and seems to be some used as a kind of bomb, their explosions powerful enough to lead to them being referred to as "superweapons". They are frequently smuggled into the Throne World by the [[Scorn]], who attempt to use it to destabilize the areas<ref>'''Bungie (2022/2/22)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[The Witch Queen]] - [[Public Event]]: Resonant Destruction''</ref>, or to assault [[The Wellspring]]<ref>'''Bungie (2022/2/22)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[The Witch Queen]] - [[The Wellspring|The Wellspring: Attack]]''</ref>. | |||
The second type was encountered on the [[Leviathan (ship)|Derelict Leviathan]], where it would be used by the [[Valus Thu'ur, Vessel of Nightmares|Vessels of]] [[Primus Or'sek, Vessel of Nightmares|Nightmares]], and other powerful [[Nightmare]]s, to protect themselves against the attacks of the Guardians seeking to [[Nightmare Containment|harvest]] their energies to stop the plans of [[Emperor Calus]]. These are simpler items, similar in appearence to the [[Pyramid Spike]]s but larger at their middle point and with more moving parts<ref>'''Bungie (2022/5/24)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Season of the Haunted]] - [[Public Event]]: [[Nightmare Containment]]''</ref>. | |||
==Gameplay== | |||
The bomb version of the the Resonant Splinter is used as part of the Resonant Destruction [[Public Event]] and in The Wellspring: Attack. In both cases, standing near or on the Splinter will make it move forvward, and defending it from enemy attacks until it reaches its destination is the main objective of the activity. Once brought to its finishing spot, the Splinter will charge briefly before unleashing a powerful blast, killing all nearby foes and breaking open the [[Hive]] spells sealing the Wellspring. | |||
The spike version of the Splinter is used as part of the Nightmare Containment activity. The Nightmare Honor Guards of the first two tiers, as well as the tier three [[Nightmare of Elykris, the Machinist]], use them to protect themselves at half and every third of their health respectively. Two must be destroyed in tier one, four in tier two, and five against Elykris to continue the fight. They can take some firepower to destroy, typically around a magazine of a primary weapon, or two shots from a [[Scythe]] Relic. | |||
