When Solstice of Heroes 2020 begins, players will receive a new set of Solstice armor by completing the quest, The Solstice Begins. This armor can be upgraded through different stages by completing objectives. The armor starts at Renewed (Rare) and can be upgraded to Majestic (Legendary) and finally to Magnificent. Prepare to play a whole lot of European Aerial Zone.

Players chasing the Moments of Triumph 2020 will need to complete the Solstice of Heroes armor set to unlock a Triumph. There are two Triumphs associated with this, acquiring a Magnificent Legendary set and earning a Glow on any Solstice armor.

Note: You must have the Solstice armor equipped for the objectives to count.
