Masterwork Weapons used to be a good way to accumulate Orbs, but that method stopped working after the Witch Queen expansion. To get Orbs of Power in Destiny 2 now you need to use mods too create them, or you need to collect them once other players generate them.

To create Orbs of Power in Destiny 2 use the following mods that can be placed in the slot of the Helmet Armor:

  • Arc Siphon – To generate Orbs of Power you need to deal the final blows with rapid Arc weapon.
  • Solar Siphon – To generate Orbs of Power you need to deal the final blows with rapid Solar weapon.
  • Void Siphon – To generate Orbs of Power you need to deal the final blows with Void Arc weapon.
  • Harmonic Siphon – To generate Orbs of Power you need to deal the final blows with (any) rapid weapon.

To pick up orbs just walk over them, as they will slowly charge your super meter, once the meter is full you can unleash your super and then start the filling ot the meter once again.
