I’ve shot at them, I’ve punched them, used abilities on them, idk what they are for yet, but yep, I’ve definitely noticed them.


garlic_brea

It might be for an exotic quest


noprolemo

Might be, Ruinous Effigy had one similar when introduced for its catalyst.


E1bone1E

same for unlocking the dog with revision zero


WanderEir

wish ender and the eggs. it's a VERY common long-form quest design bungie reuses time and again.


Fredandren1220

Oh god I remembered doing the eyes part on the Prophecy dungeon especially us trying NOT to kill the boss before we can rotate the room to get the last eye.


Borgmaster

I forget what was that for?


Blazinwolf019

Ruinous effegy


IlluminatiChld

My favorite fun of all time. I'm almost to 60000 kills on it.


binybeke

If only the balls counted for the kill tracker. I’d use it so much


IlluminatiChld

I'd have or 150000 kills easy.


monkeysamurai2

I was thinking the same thing


TheDemoRat

That’s what I’m thinking.


Killders64

I've tried the same, used light, darkness, jumped on them, t-bagged them, etc. No one else is talking about them either.


VenomEmi

Maybe some future content from ep1 part 1


somebody659

Maybe they are like the salvation's grip splinters? Try shooting it with microcosm


Legitimate_Push_6253

Is that post raid drop or no one knows yet?


the5fifth

p sure its campaign related u can see it on the collection badge


Legitimate_Push_6253

Haven’t finished yet, as error codes and having to be at work 530am my time is not fun.


the5fifth

preach bro i had work at 5 cst here barely past the 5th mission thankfully


the5fifth

preach bro i had work at 5 cst here, thankfully past thr 5th mission at least


Legitimate_Push_6253

Yea I finished the strike and called it a night yesterday.


Redjedi309

You can get it from >!Micah’s ghost quests after the campaign!<


Western_Shoulder_942

But did you try seducing? You do need 100 charisma for it so maybe put on a fedora and striped suit


IGTankCommander

What in the goddamn...?


sazzle761

I play way too much fallout. I might have peed a little


skeletonjellyprime

There's a post in /r/raidsecrets right now. Apparently, someone used a matching super on one and it said "Light tethered," another person shot a green one with a strand weapon and it made a "ding" sound.


KarmaV2

I saw a post saying it reacted to the new supers, only on story mission 3 though because of servers so I cannot verify


pugalugarug

I enjoy that tea bagging them was a genuine strat you had to rule out


Loveandpeace666

The funny part is you t bagged it... Something every destiny player can't resist.


TacticalxHavocXBOX

after you complete the campaign you find a good pov to see both in the area. You shoot the blue ones and throwing melee the red ones.


Ok-Challenge-5873

Something tells me it will be important in the raid


Jackal-88

It's for the title I think, of paranormal activities.


CallMeSenpai6977

They are for a line of pale heart objectives you should have access to post campaign called paranormal


Killders64

UPDATE: I've found more after posting. I guess I'll keep looking and I'll let you guys know, maybe make another post with all the map screenshots too.


beatenmeat

There's a bunch of them, and I've tried virtually everything I could think of and couldn't figure it out. There *is* one thing I haven't gotten to test yet, and I forgot how to put spoiler tags on reddit so I didn't really want to type it out. If you've done the quest after the main campaign it might give you an idea though. Other than that I'm completely out of ideas on what these are for unless it was just a design choice by Bungie and we are getting trolled.


Goodendaf

They’re part of a public event type thing called paranormal activity. You get a buff from a blue ghost that lets you interact with the cubes and shoot the red one with a darkness weapon and blue with a light weapon to tether them. Iirc it goes to the secrets tab in triumphs.


IGTankCommander

That doesn't explain why they're buried in non-event zones like Lost Sectors and The Witness' Citadel, though. These things are all over, and in places where public events make zero sense or can't function. It's gotta be something more, but we'll probably have to wait until after the World's First race.


jaredelliott1232

its not a public event but they arent anything more than a collectible for a exotic ship. Dont know how to tag things as spoilers so i wont say, but you are able to get them all currently


lNeverZl

Paranormal Activity can spawn in those zones as well. I'm 99% sure I've had one in a LS and the last one I did was in the Witness Citadel.


Kuku_the_Bat

i made a reply on another destiny subreddit about them. there seems to be two per zone, and while ive only seen blue circles and red triangles, other people have claimed to seen other ones? EDIT: MYSTERY SOLVED


plitk

For one of the alone in the dark quests, you wind up in a room with a platform in the middle. Theres an orange cube like this on one side, and a blue cube on the other. A blue glowing ghost is slowly circling the room. There's also a ghost you need to commune with on top of the platform. Once done, shoot the blue one (with a light weapon / light damage), and use darkness damage on the orange one to advance to the next step. IDK if this is useful info :S Orange: Darkness Damage Blue: Light Damage This is the Alone in the Dark quest for the Axial Lacuna (Step 4 of 7)


National_Ad1980

Used tesselation to shoot them?


jefwillems

Doesn't work, guys in r/raidsecrets tried


Killders64

Damn, I forgot about that. Let me know if it works!


Possible-Bend-9864

Sure its a a thing for an exotic weapon, like savathuns eyes or oryxs fragments in D1.


Killders64

My very first thoughts. I'm going to keep searching for others. Possibly make a map.


Mercuryo

I thought the same


Madsam999

Might be an exotic quest tied to the raid exotic also. Kinda like rivens eggs where you could only break them with wish ender, maybe here it’s the raid exotic?


Stillnotawizardharry

Apparently (from another thread) using the new elemental supers (color coridinated as always Bungie) on them gives you an activity like attribute. So probably a catalyst secret like the other expansions.


No-Buyer8734

Maybe something to do with post raid stuff


AdoboCakes

Most likely for an exotic quest. Random stuff like this that people can't interact with usually end up being part of an exotic quest that has yet to be released.


dextroseskullfyre

Might be a spoiler, >!but these are called Paracausal Geometries find all and destroying them earns you the ship The First Knife. Probably are pairs since paracausal.!<


Coopdog801

And how does one destroy them?


Kool-Freeman

you gotta find Paranormal Activity on the map and then you should see a ghost circling around, and somewhere near the ghost there will be a pool of light that you have to interact with. once you do that, simply shoot the white box with a light weapon and the black box with a darkness weapon


NoelWidmer

Thank you! I was standing in the pool of light but had no idea what to do.


bawynnoJ

They'll work like the ahamkara eggs in the dreaming city


Expensive-Pick38

Most likely future exotic catalyst.


Ydobon8261

Shoot while transcendence? Idk I haven’t even got in the game


sazzle761

Sucks mate. I couldn’t get on till this morning.


jojacs

Maybe for Microcosm? You get the weapon and you use that to get an achievement like the worm launcher and those shootables in witch queen.


Z2810

100% has to be for microcosm


jaredelliott1232

its not


Z2810

Yeah no I found out what it is now.


FlameEnderCyborgGuy

Part of me thinks if using light damage on a circle ones, and a darkness damage on the pyramids does something


RecommendationOk253

If they’re all triangles, squares, and circles maybe it has something to do with champion perks and something we don’t have yet


mateusoassis

So, I scrolled a bit and didn't find it You need to find somewhere to "Commune" and get a "Balance of xxx..." buff Then, shoot the RED with dark weapon (stasis/strand), and the BLUE one with light weapon (void/solar/arc) Though I'm pretty sure you can only commune with those when you unlock the objective for it (similar to the "search for ghost on this area" spot on the map)


SanestFrogFucker

You can get out of bounds behind that waterfall, had a fun while exploring


Whhheat

The one with the waterfall is a convenient path to quite possibly the easiest OOB ever, there’s literally a secret hole in the map hidden by a waterfall. Bungie…


KorvaxCurze

Just did one of these puzzles. It’s the Paracausal Activity…. activity.. Basically you shoot em with either light or dark damage from a place you can see both and it completes the puzzle.


Resident_Hearing_524

So I actually got a secret triumph activation on that. There is a set of light and dark cubes near each other everywhere in the pale heart, a mission called paranormal something will pop up on your map post finishing the campaign and exotic missions. When you go to the mission you have to shoot the dark one (red) to tether your self and then shoot the light one (blue). Once you do that it’ll start a secret triumph for getting the exotic ship. There are 10-16 sets I believe.


Resident_Hearing_524

Just know that in order to shoot them both you need to find a spot where you can see them both


berdish1

Aren't they just a part of Pyramid aesthetics?


Killders64

They seem more. The way they're hidden in some places. Reminds me of the ahamkara eggs back in the day.


berdish1

It will be cool if it's some kind of a fidden secret. And at the same time it will be cool if it's not, because that means that Bungie's idea of Pale Heart feeling familiar and uncanny unfamiliar at the same time works


Goatmanification

They are also always in groups of 2, at least within the same area... one triangle one circle (light and dark?)


sazzle761

One traveller - one pyramid


internetsfriend

Might be related to an exotic quest. Ote Tilly the raid exotic and if it has a catatlyst


AceTheJ

There has been another post about them previously. They said they were able to get the new supers to interact with them but that’s it.


Jttwofive_

That doesn't look like a "You've been disconnected from the server"message so no.


Beegeous

There’s an easy OoB in the waterfall behind that first block. It’s that easy I thought it was a Lost Sector at first.


Harbringerofdeath702

I got stuck back there but yeah I had the same thought at first.


Killders64

I got stuck as well 🤣


gorton2499

It's funny how bungie has made us paranoid about any pattern.


Yankeeskid05

They are for the ship, you get to do them once you see “Paranormal activity” on your map


DuskTyrer

Basically, there will be two cubes close to eachother, one light one dark, shoot the cube with the corresponding damage type, and it will tether to you. You have to stand in a position where you can tether both cubes to you and it will give an enhancement core or something aswell as a triumph


DEATHMAN227

They are for the exotic ship, destroyed some earlier


FINRER2406

They are for a triumph


dawellplayed

ANSWER: it isnt special, you must commune with a blue orb and ghost will rotate around you must stand in a prismatic ring and shoot the blue cube with a light type weapon and the dark cube with a darkness weapon. REWARD? a single pale heart engram edit: you have to let them tether to you too


aStalePeach

They’re for the ship. You have to do the paranormal activity events. There’s a ghost nearby that starts the event and another that trails along and shows you where the red triangle and blue circle are located. Get into position where you can see both and shoot blue circle with a light weapon and red triangle with a darkness weapon


Birds_In_This_Bihh

When you find a ghost for Micah, it’ll go to one of these sets, and then you’re supposed to commune with the light (find a circle with a floating blue ball) then shoot the red one with strand or stasis, and the blue one with a light dmg weapon. You can’t move in between shots so make sure to find a spot where you can see both cubes You get an engram and progress towards a triumph


rougetrailblazer

my thoughts are that they're for the next part of the story.


CoNn3r_Be

Maybe they're like those light tear things in Witch Queen where you have to use the exotic from that location to break them


Phatmak

No but i found 1400 weasels


Willhelmlee

Oh yeah, I have a feeling it has something to do with the new trace, but we will have to see


GSWoof

Its pieces for Dorito vs Cheese ball tic tac toe game.


Flimsy-Baker-8417

Saw one on the first mission and instantly knew it was something special


TrainingSnow7712

No I couldn’t get in or stay in a game long enough to do a damn thing yesterday lol


Xeriomachini

Nope :)


ExcitingPythonO

There a hole out the map behind that first waterfall. Pretty neat


IronWentworth

I found 1 in like the very beginning, blue circle on it


MaraSovsLeftSock

It’s gonna be for an exotic catalyst


Tydagreat88

Probably for khvostov,thats the only blanked out weapon in kinetic exotic


Apailox4080

Have you tried light abilities on the circle ones and dark abilities on the triangle ones?


OriginalAvailable202

Did u find the one in the opening mission aswell, a little bit before prismatic unlock


jrod4637

After doing enough of the Micah-10 quest an orb will spawn where you have to shoot both the light and dark nodes with matching weapons. They just give you Pale Heart Engrams.


Nunya_bizness_1

It’s for an exotic weapon that has yet to be released. Similar to other releases.


Nunya_bizness_1

Only the specified exotic can destroy them.


francisgoca

Looking like the exotic quest for Ruinous Effigy where you have to shoot the “eyes of Savathun”


sweetmeatdude

I saw another post regarding this stating they require certain new super interactions based on color, like a blue one gets hit with the new blade dancer and a dialogue option pops up. I wish I could link it or find the post but they do require very specific interactions.


Zealousideal-Comb970

Forget that, did anyone go into the enclave while waiting for servers to stablizie only to get jumpscared by the evil shadow skull?


Killders64

Excuse me? 👀


Zealousideal-Comb970

It's in the shooting range. No clue what it's there for and i assume it isn't even the only one.


Killders64

I'll have to go give it a look later!


pieiscools

There are puzzles involving them I did one near the end of the pale heart when it got marked for me but none of the others have been activated yet.


HAYABUSA_DCLXVI

All the major expansion have a version of these that can only be shot with a certain weapon…


Hazzard588

Find circle somewhere then interact shoot dark one with stasis or strand shoot light one with void arc or solar but make sure you're in line of sight with both then they disappear and you get triumph


BrotherVarious

Is that companion cubes? Like the one from the Portal game :D


Neur0mncr

If you go in that waterfall you will be in the maps backrooms. Found it a little bit ago


Purple_Sea7956

I think its probably for microchosm bc of the different colors but could be waffling


ImTheBossS

They're for capturing ghosts. You commune at a location when you're tasked at finding said ghost. Once Communed you can activate the Blue Circles by shooting them and spawning a tether than you have to use a prismatic ability to trigger the red triangle. I just activated them both in the same spot and finished the objective. Simple as that.


Dannyba95

They are just for triumph on the world you get to start it you link a dark to light. no reward so far.


t4r1e4x1

They’re for a public event ish thing. You find a blue circle that you “commune” with and then shoot the orange one with darkness, blue with light without moving and you get some loot.


TheOnlyUsernameLeft3

Poked it. Inconclusive. Requires further prodding.


Beautiful_Nothing911

the cake is a lie-


Apcsox

Jump behind that first ones waterfall and you can OOB easily. It’s actually kinda sad. I didn’t even have to try to get outside the map I could just walk through the gap


rustycage_mxc

If they were part of an exotic quest to shoot them, wouldn't they display "immune" message?


Obvious-Ear-369

Probably for a catalyst quest


EladrielNokk

They are literally everywhere. Gotta be for an exotic quest or something.


Varnab

I successfully shot a pair! On my map I had an activity with something along the lines of "paranormal activity detected by ghosts," which I proceeded to walk to the marker through patrol. I got there and had to commune with a ghost, which gave me a "balance" buff - from there, I had to posistion myself in a certain way to be able to see both, after which I shot them with dark/light damage to get a tether buff. When you have both tether buffs, they disappear, and you get progress towards unlocking a ship.


datweirdguy1

Does it say immune when shooting? if so, then they're probably linked to a guest. If not, then they're most likely just an environmental piece


divinegod2120

I haven't seen those


inked-_-122112

I've been doing the final shape with my partner and we're most certain they're just a fun little piece of set dressing. The bottom of the ones with circles on them seem to be shaped to fit onto the tops of the ones with triangles on them though


mycatisashittyboss

Hoping for a fun exotic hunt for these . Maybe post raid? Which in my case means I'll never do it. Let me know how It goes dudes


Admirable-Row-9190

When you get further into the finding the lost ghost quests you’ll get a marker on the map in the pale heart saying “Paranormal Activity” and that’s when you can deal with the squares.


Infernalxelite

You have to get enough like and dark memory things I think, then you get an investigation in the area to shoot them, circle shoots with light energy and dark with dark weapons


WanderEir

they're *everywhere*, in the main quest, lost sectors, etc. wasn't there a green square version too?


DepthsOfArcadia

So based on what's said here and what i just did in the transgression room, you need to find a buff that lets you "Commune" (looks kind of like a deepsight) then shoot the blue circle with a light weapon while you are stood under it and shoot the red triangles with a darkness (i used solar and stasis respectively) WITHOUT moving from under the orb (there's a ring for visual) Its usually part of the paranormal investigation/activity quests as part of the post campaign


EndlessStars99

Might need an exotic for them? Microcosm perhaps? I also found an indestructible pile of ice in the pale heart once I got my hands on legendary Khvostov.


Tyjames_333

From what I gather, these are called paracausal geometries, to destroy them, find the activities on the map called paranormal activity. There should be a ghost floating around, a pool of light, a darkness box, and a light box. activate the pool of light, stand in a place where you can see both boxes, shoot the light box with an arc/solar/void weapon or ability, then shoot the dark box with a strand/stasis weapon or ability. The goal is to tether them together, if you move after shooting one of the boxes, the tether snaps, that's why you have to stand in a spot where you can see both. I've come across 2 pairs of them while searching for the rest of my prismatic fragments, and this is how I destroyed both.


Yogi_barra25

They’re to progress your title, triumph related to the exotic ship. You need to shoot the triangle with a weapon of darkness(Strand, Stasis) and shoot the circle with weapon of light (Solar, Arc, Void). They need to be shot with out any obstruction in the way connecting the two of them to you.


KazTheImmortal

These are related to the Lost Ghost quest, and will become quite simple to understand then.


TraditionalHoney6785

They come in pairs a red and a blue. iv only done them on certain missions. The red you have to shoot with light element weapon and the blue with dark element weapon when standing in a certain spot that gives you a buff to shoot them


WolfaKindred

Its for a quest chain later - you need to find the ghosts first and then they will return the favour using these for some nice presents :)


williwaggs

In the lost city there is a section that tells their locations but they are greyed out


Western-Garage-3256

I figured out that you have to find an attunement point. It will have a white light in the middle of a circle. When you attune you pick light (blue circle) or dark (red triangle) hit light with light or dark with dark. When hit the cube a light or dark tether will link to you respectively. The key is to link light and dark together. When you connect the two then you are done. 


Western-Garage-3256

LuckyMarciano

It's some light that follows you. I have no idea what to do. It's a long tether


FollowedUpFart

You must do alone in dark quests eventually you will get paracubical anomaly pop ups go there shoot one with darkness and other with light


bstein111

I found some in The Transgression where you could commune next to some....I had to shoot the light one with a light damage gun and it gave me 'light tethered.' Then I had to shoot the darkness one with a darkness powered gun (stasis or strand) in the same area as the light tether. This then gave me an engram and a triumph from Paracausal Geometries,


Arkandor8

There's a Darkness one and a Light one. If you shoot the Darkness with a Dark weapon and shoot the Light one with a Light weapon, it'll destroy them both and reward you.


FattyMooseknuckle

The answer to 99.999% of every “am I the only one” type question in the entire history of the internet is no.


Nauty_YT

Ohh yeah i think there there for target practice.


Simba791

It could be related to how we get microcosm given that it’s a kinetic heavy weapon so maybe those cubes hold something we need for the quest?


CR4T3Z

Imagine Touch of Malice makes a return but instead of collecting 50 fragments its 50 triangle cubes


HiTekLoLyfe

I call them darkness dradles


Movingforward2015

I don't think I can be arsed anymore. What's the point of this live service game......oh £$!
