Intro
The Solstice of Heroes is an annual Destiny 2 event, and the 14th Season of the Splicer is no exception. This year’s event runs from July 6 to August 3, 2021.
Official Bungie Announcement:
“Each day of the month-long event will be assigned an element. Guardians will need to match their attacks with the daily element in order to charge one of four unique elemental buffs. On Prism days, Guardians can charge all four buffs, but can only activate one at a time.
This year’s Solstice of Heroes introduces a new Legendary Shotgun, Exotic Ghost Shell, emblem, and Solstice Packages. Eververse offers glowing universal ornaments for Silver or Bright Dust, matched to the Guardian’s equipped subclass. New ships, Sparrows, and cosmetics will also be up for collection!”
Event Activities and Armor Upgrades
European Aerial Zone (EAZ)
The European Aerial Zone (EAZ) takes place around the European Dead Zone (EDZ) and can be accessed from the Tower. The objective is to eliminate minibosses within a time limit. The more minibosses defeated, the more chests you can find after the final boss.
- Solstice Packages & Key Fragments drop from chests.
- 15 Solstice Key Fragments are required to open Solstice Packages.
- Solstice Key Fragments can be earned from all Solstice activities.
New Event Weapon – Compass Rose Shotgun
Compass Rose is the new Legendary Shotgun introduced in Solstice of Heroes 2021. This PvP-friendly shotgun offers god roll perk combinations in the current meta. With recent 55 RPM shotgun nerfs, Compass Rose has emerged as a top-tier choice alongside Riiswalker and Retold Tale.
Elemental Orbs & Daily Elemental Buffs
Each day, one of the three Light-based subclasses (Arc, Solar, Void) is empowered, allowing Guardians to harness specific elemental buffs. Collect 30 Elemental Orbs matching the daily element to activate the buff:
Element | Effect |
---|---|
Arc | Increased speed and enhanced Melee & Sword damage. |
Solar | Emits a burning energy wave that damages enemies. |
Void | Crouching grants Truesight & ability regeneration. |
Stasis | Stasis empowerment (limited activation). |
