Destiny 2's new edition of the Solstice event allows players to unlock the glow for their armor, and this guide explains how to do it.

Destiny 2's Season of the Haunted features the return of the classic Solstice of Heroes event, which this year is simply called Solstice, and it has a very different approach to the grind for loot. This year, Destiny 2 players can complete Solstice Triumphs to get materials to upgrade their armor pieces, which can be rerolled to get higher stats and semi-customizable stat distribution. This guide explains how to make the Solstice armor glow and how to make it work for every piece of armor.

In order to make the new Candescent set of armor from the Solstice event glow, Destiny 2 players will need to complete all the Solstice-related Triumphs in the event card, as each of them awards 1 Kindling.

A total of 6 Kindling is used to make a single armor piece glow, which is done by upgrading the Kindling slot on the armor three times: the first time for 1 Kindling, the second for 2, and the third for 3.

Because the full armor set is made of four pieces plus the class item, players will need to complete all Solstice Triumphs to get enough Kindling, for a total of 24. The class item will not glow until all other pieces have been fully Kindled, as it doesn't have the Kindling slot.

There are 24 Triumphs associated with the Solstice event, and to complete the full armor glow, Destiny 2 players have to go through all of them on every character they wish to have the glowing armor on.
