Facet of Defiance is one of the many Prismatic Fragments players can unlock in Destiny 2. Like the others, this one is acquired by completing a sort of puzzle, which is basically just killing a bunch of enemies until a Tormentor spawns.

How to get Facet of Defiance

Facet of Defiance is found in the Transgression area of The Pale Heart. As you enter the area, follow the left-hand wall until you locate a cave with a seed. This seed gives you the buff, Shielded from Darkness, which lets you survive inside the cave.

Inside the cave is a simple puzzle that has to destroying Acolyte Eyes. Every few eyes you destroy will spawn enemies, which you must defeat to spawn more eyes. The Acolyte Eyes will spawn all throughout the tunnels, so run around until you find them all (remember to fresh your buff).

Eventually, a Heart of Malice Tormentor will appear. This boss drops a Prismatic Key, which you can use to open the chest and collect the Facet of Defiance. This Fragment grants the following effect: Finishers create a detonation that either Jolts, Scorches, Slows, Severs, or makes targets Volatile, based on the damage type of your equipped super.
