Q.What is 'Impact Core' in Destiny 2?

More info

Impact Core is an Exotic Power Core introduced for the Praxic Blade in Destiny 2. When installed on the Praxic Blade, its melee damage applies an elemental effect that matches the Super you have equipped (Arc, Solar, Void, Stasis, or Strand). It isn’t a weapon or a mod you equip directly; you hook it into the Praxic Blade to grant the additional melee effect. For reference, the core is documented as a non-craftable Power Core with multiple elemental options tied to your Super, and it specifically relates to the Praxic Blade exotic.

Locating and acquiring Impact Core can be situational: it’s advertised as being sold occasionally in the Tharsis Cantina, and players have reported finding it behind cantina vendors in rotating spots. This aligns with the broader Praxic Blade ecosystem, which also includes other cores like Refraction Core and Gyro Core. For up-to-date placement and availability, players often check community guides and vendor rotations. GamePressure coverage

Q.Are there any Star Wars inspired elements or crossovers in Destiny 2?

A.Yes—Destiny 2 has Star Wars-inspired elements, first via official crossovers in early 2025 and then a larger Star Wars–themed expansion later that year. Lucasfilm collaboration has brought armor, cosmetics, and weapons that nod to Star Wars, but it’s not a full canonical crossover; it’s Star Wars aesthetics woven into Destiny’s world.
