Supers Are Best Used to Create More Supers
It can be really tempting to use a super ability in Destiny 2 for the sole purpose of taking down a single powerful enemy. Maybe they’re being annoying, or perhaps you’re just impatient. But if you get the kill you may generate three Orbs of Light if you’re lucky. If nobody else on your team has their super, you will find yourself in a very tight spot if you run into a group of minions during the Nightfall Strike.
If you must use your super on a boss or other powerful enemy, we suggest waiting until it summons some adds. That way your other fireteam members can get a quick charge to help take out the boss, or clear out the next area. By using your most powerful ability in this way, it allows a near endless cycle of your team just being powerful badesses. And who doesn’t want to be a powerful badass?
