Destiny 2 Cloud Accretions are the new local resource for Neptune, and you’ll want to haul in as much as you can if you want to get your hands on some high-level gear – something that’s invaluable early on in the campaign, especially if you’re tackling the story on legendary difficulty.
Thankfully, Cloud Accretions aren’t a craft resource, they only serve to increase your rank with Nimbus in the free PC game, so you won’t have to stockpile them like the destination materials that were recently deprioritized in the space game. Increasing your rank with Nimbus not only grants you legendary engrams, but also gives you access to a full set of armour and upgrade modules, which allow you to increase the power level of your Lightfall exotics whenever you like.
