Every Artifact Mod coming in Destiny 2’s Season of the Deep

A new season in Destiny 2 means a brand new artifact, so here are all the mods on the new artifact arriving in Season of the Deep.

Seasonal artifacts in Destiny 2 provide players with exceptional power and gameplay variance throughout the season. Offering mods to players, these can shape the way a guardian plays, while opening up new build crafting opportunities in the process.

Season of the Deep’s artifact will be no different, containing plenty of mods for Guardians to get their hands on. Want to know what’s coming next season? We’ve got you covered.

Season of the Deep aka Season 21 will see Guardians traverse under the waters of Titan.

Season of the Deep’s artifact

The artifact for Season of the Deep has been revealed as the NPA Repulsor Regulator. Whilst we don’t know much about this item lore-wise, it’s likely we’ll receive it early on in the season as a tool to progress the story forward.

Artifact refund changes

Season of the Deep is also bringing a new change coming to artifact mods. Previously, in order to refund a mod from your artifact you’d need to completely reset all your mods. Now in Season of the Deep, you’ll be able to refund artifact mods individually, allowing you to be more flexible whilst you’re out on patrol.
