All Solstice of Heroes armor upgrades in Destiny 2
Published , by Sam Chandler
The Solstice of Heroes event has kicked off in Destiny 2, giving players everywhere new objectives to complete, loot to earn, and most importantly, a shiny set of armor to upgrade. The Solstice of Heroes armor is unique in Destiny 2 in that it is the only armor in the game that can be upgraded from uncommon, to rare, to legendary, and finally to masterwork.
Solstice of Heroes Armor Upgrades
As part of this year’s Moments of Triumph, each of the three classes in Destiny 2 will receive a full set of uncommon armor when they start the Solstice of Heroes event. In order to upgrade the armor (increasing its power level), players are tasked with completing certain objectives, such as generating elemental orbs.
Before starting out, it can be a good idea to plan an optimal upgrade path. For instance, a lot of the armor pieces require elemental orb generation, orb generation on planets, and participation in heroic public events. By doing all these at once, players will be able to streamline the whole upgrade process.
