Aspects and Fragments
Aspects can alter subclass abilities and open Fragment slots; Fragments modify stats or ability effects within the capacity those Aspects provide.
How it works
The guide says a Guardian can equip two Aspects at a time. Aspects can buff or completely change some abilities and open Fragment slots, normally two or three each. Fragments can increase stats, alter ability effects, or empower them. The number of Fragments equipable depends on the slots granted by the selected Aspects.
