Subclasses

Each class has a Strand subclass:

Strand subclasses are unlocked by completing the Lightfall campaign on any difficulty. Each class starts with the Grapple Grenade ability already unlocked. Additional Strand Grenade abilities, Aspects, and Fragments can be purchased at the Pouka Pond in the Hall of Heroes on Neptune.

Aspects

Main page: Strand Aspects

Aspects are items that modify a subclass, adding new abilities or modifying existing ones. Each class has their own unique set of Aspects for each of their subclasses.

A subclass can equip up to two Aspects at a time. Equipping an Aspect unlocks a certain number of slots for equipping that subclass's Fragments.

Fragments

Main page: Strand Fragments

Fragments are items that can be equipped to a subclass to provide passive bonuses to that subclass. Equipping a Fragment may also grant Stat Increases, or inflict Stat Penalties. Fragments are not tied to specific classes, and are available to obtain for all subclasses of a given element type.
