Solstice of Legends is right around the corner! Today we will be sharing some more info on what to expect when the event begins on July 28th!

Below is our overview graphic. We will be diving deeper into each point in this article.

FIRESIDE MEMORIES

Fireside memories is a social media event we're hosting for the duration of Solstice of Legends.

We encourage you all to share:

• Your favorite Solstice screenshots from any year
• Beautiful destinations and sunset locations that capture the spirit of summer.
• Any screenshot that reminds you why you love Destiny.

Tweet these with #FiresideMemories and we will feature our favorites in our weekly Community TWID (beginning August 6th). Alternatively you can submit your memories in a dedicated channel in our Discord!

TALES OF THE LIGHT

Every Guardian has a story.

What moment made you fall in love with Destiny?

Was it your first steps in the Cosmodrome? The first raid you completed with friends? A clutch Trials win? An unforgettable community moment? Or maybe a story that has stayed with you over the years.

We'd love to hear it.

Share your stories with us in Discord or in an X/Twitter post marked with #TalesOfTheLight. We will retweet or share our favorites.

Every Guardian's journey is unique, and we'd love to help tell yours. 💙

TRIALS OF LIGHT

The Trials of Light is our gameplay challenge for the Solstice of Legends. We challenge you to complete a series of activities using only Solstice weapons for the chance to obtain the Lightforged Legend Discord role.

Make sure you get it before Solstice ends, since next year you will be able to gild the role.

The challenges this year are as follows:

• Complete Solo Ops "The Conflux" while only using Solstice weapons
• Complete Fireteam Ops "The Lightblade" while the fireteam only uses Solstice weapons
• Complete Pinnacle Ops "Presage" while the fireteam only uses Solstice weapons
• Complete Dungeon "Prophecy" solo, while only using Solstice weapons

Solstice weapons are available from Solstice engrams at the Tenet of Bravery. Weapons we're classing as Solstice weapons for this challenge are:

• Something New (Stasis Handcannon)
• Festival Flight (Strand Grenade Launcher)
• Yeartide Apex (Solar Submachine Gun)
• Fortunate Star (Void Bow)
• Compass Rose (Solar Shotgun)
• Rapid Growth (Arc Sniper Rifle)
• Crowning Duologue (Strand Rocket Launcher)
• Dawn Far Off (Solar Machine Gun)

To be clear, this isn't something you'll have to submit to us yourself. We will be tracking this behind the scenes!

We are partnering with Popularity Report for this event! Please, if you haven't already, go and check them out!

LIGHTING THE WAY

The Light grows stronger when it's shared.

Destiny has always been about Guardians lifting one another up. Throughout the week, challenge yourself to make someone else's journey a little brighter.

• Sherpa a Guardian through a raid or dungeon
• Help someone complete an Exotic mission or difficult activity
• Answer questions and offer advice in the help channels
• Welcome new members and help them feel at home
• Lend a hand to a fellow Guardian whenever you can

Every act of kindness helps to strengthen our community.

We'll be keeping a lookout, and at the end of each week, we'll spotlight Guardians who went above and beyond in a community appreciation post, recognizing those who embody the spirit of the Light and help make the D2 Community Hub a welcoming place for everyone.

Be excellent to each other. Eyes up, Guardian. 💙

COMMUNITY TWID

We previously communicated that Community TWIDs would begin following Bungie's final official TWID. There's been a change in plan. We will begin our Community TWIDs on Thursday August 6th. Submissions for Movie of the Week & Art of the Week will open up on July 30th. Keep your eye out for communication on that closer the time!

For the duration of Solstice of Legends, we will be featuring additional submissions. Please share solstice themed:

• Fan Art
• Clips & Highlights
• Music
• Builds
• 3D Prints
• Cosplays

We will feature our favorites in the Community TWID each week! You'll have three opportunities to win, so don't be discouraged if you aren't featured in the first TWID! Submissions for this will open in our Discord and on socials when Solstice of Legends begins!

WOVEN IN LIGHT FASHION CONTEST

In each TWID, we will also be featuring Solstice themed fashion in addition to our weekly themed fashion. This can be submitted either in our Discord or on our socials.

Make use of at least one piece of Solstice armor in your looks and submit them to us starting July 28th!
