Elemental Wells are a mechanic introduced in the Season of the Chosen.

Overview

Elemental Wells can be created through conditional actions defined by Elemental Well Mods. Each Well has an element which is determined by the Elemental Well Mod used to generate it.

Most activation conditions will spawn the elemental wells on top of the defeated enemies, but others which do not need a kill will spawn them on the guardian. Wells are generated for the entire fireteam with each player getting their own instance of the well. This means that collecting a well does not "steal" them from other guardians. Elemental Wells do not spawn in the Crucible.

Running over wells collects them. Guardians are free to collect wells even if they do not have any mods equipped. Picking up a Well grants +10% energy to the ability with the lowest current % energy. Picking up a Well that matches the player's subclass grants energy to all of the player's abilities.

Originally, Elemental Well Mods could only be bought at the War Table, the Splicer Servitor, and the Wayfinder's Compass. After these vendors were removed from the game, all non-Seasonal Elemental Well Mods were moved to Ada-1's inventory.
