Question to people who know more about the lore, about the ending of the Beyond Light campaign.
So, apparently Darkness is intrinsic to all life, so we can use it without the splinter training wheels once we know what we're doing.
What I'm curious about is...can Guardians not wield Light at all without a Ghost as a conduit, like it gets frozen and we're instantly Light-less? Or did we just need Stasis to break Stasis in that particular situation and if Light could have been useful we could have used it anyway and the taunting about being deprived of our Light was just empty taunting?
AFAIK Guardians use their Ghosts as a conduit for wielding the Light. The Ghost is our connection to the Light and without it, we got nothing. But it seems like we've established a connection directly with the darkness to wield stasis though. They've said at some point that wielding stasis will come back to haunt us. I wonder if that's going to be a part of it.
The same thing happened for my Flawless title, what I thought was Gilding was just unlocking Flawless again but for this season, and then doing that unlocked 5 more challenges which are more... Challenging. Got my hopes up for no reason, bunglo why you hide these challenges like that?
What's even more annoying is, had I known about that triumph for carrying someone, I would have equipped the proper emblem earlier this season... If it even was retroactive like that. To know I actually managed a carry once and it didn't count because arbitrary reasons is pretty gosh darn silly.

I believe the "carry" triumphs now only require the player to not have gone flawless in the current season, so that's a silver lining.
Conqueror seems pretty reasonable to me. The title itself is actually easier to get now since the stuff you actually have to try for is just:
- 6 different GM NF completions and it's retroactive
- one GM NF completed with each different subclass
Then to guild it you just need a single completion of each of this season's GM Nightfalls. Which is basically just what Conqueror used to require.
Seems a hell of a lot less crazy then that Flawless title stuff posted above.

Flawless is absolutely harder. I am mostly annoyed because of less time to do it due to late in season, as well as hidden requirements.
That and apparently the first four element completions don't count to the individual strike count? So any runs before the 4 elements are done don't count.
I got the From the Brink medal! Oh man, that was fun. You can tell after they got the 4-0, they started playing conservative, and once we took a couple of rounds they played even tighter. Oops.
Saw the PVP quests for the season and touched it for the first time since I think Beyond Light launched. Stasis is indeed fucking horrible in Crucible, as expected. Seasonal Bow was real butts to get those 13 kills with. Grenade Launchers are fun and can work as impromptu shotguns if you don't mind dying in the process. Excellent when you only have a single shot left anyways....

We did our usual sunday morning raid and yikes, destinys servers felt like they were melting the whole time today.
Enemies regained full health after getting “killed”, walked into the ground or just were impervious to damage for a while, “teleports” even more regular than usual etc.

What I'm curious about is...can Guardians not wield Light at all without a Ghost as a conduit, like it gets frozen and we're instantly Light-less? Or did we just need Stasis to break Stasis in that particular situation and if Light could have been useful we could have used it anyway and the taunting about being deprived of our Light was just empty taunting?
AFAIK Guardians use their Ghosts as a conduit for wielding the Light. The Ghost is our connection to the Light and without it, we got nothing. But it seems like we've established a connection directly with the darkness to wield stasis though. They've said at some point that wielding stasis will come back to haunt us. I wonder if that's going to be a part of it.
Hypothetical question:
Is there any reason lightless humans couldn't use stasis? So far the stasis abilities have only been shown with Light-wielding guardians, but is there any reason why Surya couldn't commune with darkness and become a stasis guardian?

I mean, it seemed like a lot of the research that Clovis did tied to Clarity Control was using Darkness, so in theory, doesn't seem impossible. The player unlocks more abilities by helping Elsie work through Clovis research, so perhaps he was on his way.
Also, I always interpreted Guardian's connection to the Light/Traveler as like, your Ghost keeps your flame kindled beyond some normal amount. Once your ghost goes out, it's not instant loss of light, but you are going to burn out. That may have changed with how Ghaul fucked everyone, but maybe that's cause he imprisoned the Traveler, not just a random ghost. But I based that on Eriana-3 going out like a boss (presumably after her Ghost was lost), and also the idea that like Eris/Osiris/Saint-14 are all still alive, despite being severed from revives/light.
Cause yeah, how does an undying Revenant persist without the Light entirely? Why wouldn't they keel over if there wasn't some fundamental essence still available.
Ghost recharge battery!
This is probably dumb, I just imagined Eriana-3 popping Radiance even when her ghost was lost and just burning out eventually.

We know they can, because
we've already seen it. The Exo Stranger was never a light-bearer, and Eris Morn lost her light years ago. Drifter and the player are the only ones who have light and dark.

It just seems odd that the application of darkness powers is exclusively to guardians rather than all of the other human fighters for whom stasis+resurrection would be life-altering.
The Stranger's jellyfish is weird because I'm not sure it ever shows up in game.
Honestly, there's a ton of scenes from the Beyond Light trailers that hasn't or doesn't appear in game anywhere from what I can tell.
I really wonder if BL was a complete mess behind the scenes because of COVID and a ton of stuff got cut for time and that's why the narrative is pretty disjointed and random and there's no introduction to the Stranger/Drifter/Eris trinity showing up.

They could probably use it the way the Fallen did, via some kind of technology. It seems like that's what Clovis was up to and that might be how the Stranger does it too.

It doesn't seem like that's the way Guardians work. They aren't sustained moment to moment by the light. They need the Light to come back to life and to use their powers but absent the Light they are just normal humans. Who maybe don't age, although that's not 100% clear.

On Elise/Exo:
The exo's work because their brain medium is vex radiolaria "purified" by the darkness via Clarity Control. So its possible that all exo may be able to wield stasis/darkness powers.

Based on Ikora, I think human Guardians age very slowly or not at all. I've never seen a single lore card speak of the Guardian's bodies aging. Starving to death, yes, aging no.

And that only works because Clovis found the Entity on Europa that the darkness guided him to. He explicitly mentions in the lore that he derived the essence of it (or something like that) and how that interacted with existing matter in way that didn't make sense, at least in regards to the laws of physics.
The way I think about Ghosts is that they're sorta like car batteries that have just enough power to provide the spark to keep an internal combustion engine running but not enough to start the engine from scratch. So when you die, the Ghost needs to get a "jump" from either the Traveler directly or another Ghost to have enough power to kick off the resurrection process. Also your Light abilities charge over time similar to how a car battery retains its charge over time as long as the engine is running. Killing a Ghost means you need that small trickle of energy keeping your shambling zombie corpse's engine running from something else, be it Hive magic, the Traveler's background Light radiation, the Darkness, or something else.

About prerequisites for interacting with the Darkness...
From what I was reading, the lore suggests all living beings have Darkness in them? If the Gardener and Winnower metaphor/story is accurate, Darkness is/seeks to preserve the natural state of things, and the Light makes/is the (first) outside intervention.
I looked up in shock. I said, What? What do you mean?
"A special new rule. Something to…" The gardener threw up their hands in exasperation. "I don't know. To reward those who make space for new complexity. A power that helps those who make strength from heterodoxy, and who steer the game away from gridlock. Something to ensure there's always someone building something new. It'll have to be separate from the rest of the rules, running in parallel, so it can't be compromised. And we'll have to be very careful, so it doesn't disrupt the whole game…"
All you will do, I said, with rising panic|fury, is delay the dominant pattern that will overrun the others. It is inevitable. One final shape.
"No, it'll be different. Everything will be different, everywhere you look."
Everything will be the same. Your new rule will only make great false cysts of horror full of things that should not exist that cannot withstand existence that will suffer and scream as their rich blisters fill with effluent and rot around them, and when they pop they will blight the whole garden. Whatever exists because it must exist and because it permits no other way of existence has the absolute claim to existence. That is the only law.
"No," the gardener said, "I am the growth and preservation of complexity. I will make myself into a law in the game."
And thus we two became parts of the game, and the laws of the game became nomic and open to change by our influence. And I had only one purpose and one principle in the game. And I could do nothing but continue to enact that purpose, because it was all that I was and ever would be.
Pretty sure the strangers jellyfish was going to be the start of a ghost alternative. Just another customization option or MT vehicle. Like how in warframe you could have a little drone follow you. Later they added mutant dogs.
They probably paid for the cinematic before they realized their production output couldn't handle the work to get it in game
I mean I'm a little confused about the entire opening cinematic for Beyond Light; it seems like The Stranger arrives in the weird ship with the fins like her ghost/not ghost, only it crashes and becomes the ziggurat that we use to commune with the darkness, so what the frick is that thing and how did she get it and did she fly it to Europa from her alternative timeline and if so is it a time machine? The cutscene was cool as hell, top 5 in Destiny history IMO, but I don't completely get it and I read all of the lore I can get my hands on.

The Ziggurat comes from the Pyramid. You can see it come from there at the opening of the cinematic it appears in and it's made of the same weird shifting geometric material as the various other pyramid objects. The Stranger presumably comes in her own ship or teleported there via time magic or whatever.
Also if you like PvP or just people doing crazy stuff and you don't follow Cerridius, you should. This video makes me upset with how easy he makes it look because I know if I tried this nonsense I would die immediately and often.
Yo, when is the weekly reset? And is there anywhere in-game that tracks which powerful & pinnacle rewards you've claimed for that week?
Ion game you have to go and look at each source. I really recommend using both braytech.org and destiny item manager if you're on pc. Makes sorting things way easier

Was gearing up to go on LFG to look for a 3-wins-but-whatever-happens, happens group for trials and got randomly invited by a 2 stack while in the tower.
Unfortunately, I was better than both of them, and since I don’t main Hunter, we got destroyed all but one match.
But I got a high-cal, QuickDraw, rampage igneous hammer, so that’s all alright! Handling masterwork, but eh, them the breaks.

"A special new rule. Something to…" The gardener threw up their hands in exasperation. "I don't know. To reward those who make space for new complexity. A power that helps those who make strength from heterodoxy, and who steer the game away from gridlock. Something to ensure there's always someone building something new. It'll have to be separate from the rest of the rules, running in parallel, so it can't be compromised. And we'll have to be very careful, so it doesn't disrupt the whole game…"
All you will do, I said, with rising panic|fury, is delay the dominant pattern that will overrun the others. It is inevitable. One final shape.
"No, it'll be different. Everything will be different, everywhere you look."
Everything will be the same. Your new rule will only make great false cysts of horror full of things that should not exist that cannot withstand existence that will suffer and scream as their rich blisters fill with effluent and rot around them, and when they pop they will blight the whole garden. Whatever exists because it must exist and because it permits no other way of existence has the absolute claim to existence. That is the only law.
"No," the gardener said, "I am the growth and preservation of complexity. I will make myself into a law in the game."
And thus we two became parts of the game, and the laws of the game became nomic and open to change by our influence. And I had only one purpose and one principle in the game. And I could do nothing but continue to enact that purpose, because it was all that I was and ever would be.
I looked at the gardener.
I looked at my hands.
I discovered the first knife.
They probably paid for the cinematic before they realized their production output couldn't handle the work to get it in game

Tuesdays, 1300 EST (or 1200, I think it flops with daylight savings?). So, just account for your timezone.
It works great for me, because it means if I play early in the day I can do one set of bounties and then do another in the afternoon.
The Ziggurat comes from the Pyramid. You can see it come from there at the opening of the cinematic it appears in and it's made of the same weird shifting geometric material as the various other pyramid objects. The Stranger presumably comes in her own ship or teleported there via time magic or whatever.
Also if you like PvP or just people doing crazy stuff and you don't follow Cerridius, you should. This video makes me upset with how easy he makes it look because I know if I tried this nonsense I would die immediately and often.
Ion game you have to go and look at each source. I really recommend using both braytech.org and destiny item manager if you're on pc. Makes sorting things way easier

Any excuse to wear rampants!
Only Stasis left to go for the element GM Triumph. Just in time Reset, I suppose.
Unfortunately, I was better than both of them, and since I don’t main Hunter, we got destroyed all but one match.
But I got a high-cal, QuickDraw, rampage igneous hammer, so that’s all alright! Handling masterwork, but eh, them the breaks.
