Destiny 2 starts its spring event The Revelry next week

Starting next Tuesday, April 16th and until Tuesday, May 7th, Destiny 2 will have a new event, The Revelry, to celebrate all the usual spring things: flowers, bunny ears, pastels, and slaughtering enemies. The event was already mentioned in the Season of the Drifter roadmap and all players will be able to participate.

Start by visiting Eva Levante at The Tower, who will have a list of request for you to fulfill. She will give you the Reveler’s Tonic. This can be filled with Reveler’s Essence by killing bosses in the Verdant Forest or completing other activities. Three different tonics will reduce the cooldown of your class abilities, grenades, or melee. The more of Inaugural Revelry or Vernal Growth armor pieces you equip, the more potent the tonic will be, and the effects will apply to every activity in the game except Private Matches. You will also be able to increase your output by using Orbs on top of the tonic. These Orbs have the chance of being generated by precision kills, and the Verdant Forest has the highest drop rate of Orbs.

Be sure to clear as many rooms as possible in The Verdant Forest to have as much time as possible to defeat the five different bosses and get your reward. You can either team up with others or be matched by the game, or if you dare, go alone.

During the event, double drops are implemented, so make sure to make the most of it. Now, let's talk about the important part, the Rewards! As usual, there is a set of armor, but also Enhancement Cores and a new Fusion Rifle. Just by taking part in the spring event you will get the Inaugural Revelry armor set, pieces of which are obtained by defeating bosses in the Verdant Forest. The more bosses you defeat, the greater your chances to receive a drop.

There will be five weekly bounties to get from Eva Levante, which will awards pieces of the armor as a powerful drop. Reveler’s Essence can also be gained through activities. This can be exchanged with Eva for packages containing various rewards such as world drops, Enhancement Cores, and ornaments for the Inaugural Revelry helmet.

Each of the ornaments will grow in size depending on how many pieces of Inaugural Revelry or Vernal Growth armor you have equipped. If you are already at max level, then you will receive both a Bright Engram and a Revelry Engram every time you level up and there is a “knock-out” list for the Revelry Engrams to prevent duplicates in your inventory until you have all the new items. If you are after a new weapon, then you want to complete Triumphs. Do so and with Reveler’s Essence, Eva will give you Arbalest, the new Exotic Kinetic Fusion Rifle, a new type of weapon that does extra damage against enemy shields.

As usual, there are some goodies to be bought from Destiny 2 in-game store, like a Ghost with fuzzy bunny ears.
