Bonfire

Bonfire Bash is the seasonal solstice event and can be activated from the tower. It has several different phases that must be completed to get the best rewards.

When loading, the Taken will surround the bonfire in the center of the map. Eliminate them and destroy the interference surrounding the center.
Several igniters will appear around the map. They will drop orbs upon defeat which must be thrown into the central bonfire.
After a short time, the Ignitors will have had enough. Three other taken interference locations will appear and need to be dealt with.
The igniters will reappear. After defeating them all or running out of time, a Taken Heat-Drinker will spawn. Defeat him to receive your justly deserved rewards.

Celebrating the Solstice Quest

Equip a full set of Burning Armor.

Visit Eva Levante in the tower.

Complete the Bonfire Bash activity to turn your Silver Leaves into Silver Ash.

Visit Eva Levante in the tower.

Open your event map and claim your first event challenge.

Add the kindling you earned from completing the event challenge to any piece of Candescent armor. This will allow you to spend Silver Ash to imbue the armor with embers to upgrade it.

Adding Kindling to your Candescent armor gave you the ability to imbue it with Glowing Embers to boost its stats. To do this, you need the Silver Ash you acquired during the Bonfire Bash, and it can only be done for the piece of armor you applied the Kindling to.

Visit Eva Levante in the tower.

Beauty products

Eververse is practically lousy with cosmetics this year. From armor sets to emotes and ghost shells to sparrows, there's something for anyone willing to pony up the cash.
