Destiny 2 Kindling sources, event challenges and how to add Kindling explained How to unlock and use Kindling in Destiny 2's latest event. Guide by Matthew Reynolds Managing Editor Published on 21 Jul 2022 Destiny 2 Kindling is a resource introduced to Solstice 2022. Alongside Silver Leaves and Silver Ash, this is used to upgrade your Candescent Armor to 'imbue' it with improved stats, and eventually, add a glow for a cosmetic flurish. Kindling is earned through completing event challenges, so focusing on their various requirements will mean you can upgrade all the armour you need before the event ends. On this page: How to get Kindling and add Kindling to Candescent Armour Destiny 2 Kindling sources from event challenges Kindling max cap Watch on YouTube How to get Kindling and add Kindling to Candescent Armour Kindling is a resource earned from completing event challenges during the Solstice 2022 event, where each completed challenge grants you one Kindling and one Event Ticket (which can be used to unlock items in the Event Pass). Event challenges are unlocked by completing the 'Celebrating Solstice' quest, which is a tutorial to the Solstice event - taking you through the process of earning Silver Leaves, transforming them into Silver Ash, and learning how to apply these to Candescent Armor. Only once you have completed this quest do you earn your first first Kindling, and can apply it to Candescent Armour. To add Kindling to Candescent Armour, open the piece in question, then select the second to last mod slot. From there, select the Small Kindling node below, and spend the one Kindling. This allows you to then 'imbue' with Glowing Embers - in other words, improve its stats with Silver Ash. This mod slot then changes to Large Kindling, requiring two more Kindling. Doing this 'imbues' with Shining Embers, allowing a further stat upgrade. You can then apply another three for it to be 'Fully Rekindled', adding a glow and the ability to upgrade a stat of your choice by +20. Note that applying Kindling works across all armour of the same slot - meaning if you purchase another armour piece in that slot from Eva Levante, the Kindling upgrades will carry across. For example, if you have fully upgraded a helmet with Large Kindling, all further helmet pieces during the event will also have Large Kindling ready to go. Destiny 2 Kindling sources from event challenges You can earn one Kindling per completed event challenge during the Solstice 2022 event. Though playing Bonfire Bash is the focus, there are challenges for using Solar abilities, shotguns and hand cannons, and getting Silver Leaves from sources across the game. Note you have to do this per class if you want to upgrade armour multiple types.

Kindling no different - the caps are as follows: Kindling max cap: 99 Thanks to Testifye on reddit for confirming the above using API information You can see how much Kindling you have in the relevant upgrade node for Candescent Armor. Note that reaching this cap is technically impossible, as even if you earn Kindling from completing every event challenge per class, it won't reach 99 (24 challenges times three is 72). This means, unlike Silver Leaves and Silver Ash, you can focus on earning Kindling without worrying about any exceeding the cap going to waste.
