'''Ghost Shells''' are aesthetic modifications to a [[Guardian]]'s [[Ghost]]. During Year One of ''[[Destiny]]'', Ghost Shells were a purely cosmetic item and only two were available to players (Generalist and Frontier). Beginning with Year Two, they will feature Defense, Intellect, Discipline, Strength, and Light stats, as well as perks that aid in the discovery of [[Loot#Materials|Planetary Materials]] and increase [[Glimmer]] rewards during combat.

===Destiny 2===
Ghost shells in Destiny 2 are still largely random, with perks and perk amount varying with rarity, however Ghost shells no longer provide any stat bonuses. What they still provide includes:
* Cache detection
* Bonus glimmer
* Bonus experience
* Gunsmith telemetry
* Regional and activity bonuses
In ''[[Beyond Light]]'', Ghost shells received an update reworking how their perks function. They now function similarly to [[Armor]], requiring the player to upgrade their Ghost shell's energy in order to equip mods of their choosing. There are four different sockets: Experience Mod Socket, Tracking Mod Socket, Economic Mod Socket and Activity Mod Socket. Each socket style dictates what type of mods can be inserted into that specific socket, so while it is possible to insert both an Experience Mod and an Economic Mod, the player cannot socket multiple mods of the same type.
