The core part of upgrading weapons and armor in Destiny 2<\/em> is actual cores, Enhancement Cores that is. Enhancement Cores are necessary for upgrading armor tiers to increase each piece’s energy capacity and build it toward Masterwork quality.<\/p>
Enhancement Cores can also be spent on Upgrade Modules used to infuse a piece of gear with the power score of another item. They can be spent on Enhancement Prisms used to complete the process of forging Masterwork quality pieces of armor, too. Purchasing these items also costs Legendary Shards, Glimmer, and various Planetary Materials.<\/p>
These key items require a healthy amount of Enhancement Cores, especially the Enhancement Prisms. But the good news is there’s a variety of methods available to earn them.<\/p>
