With a generous offering of cosmetics available for Bright Dust, Guardians with discipline (and patience) can enjoy the event without paying a cent. However, a few exclusive items — like the Megalodasher Skimmer and select shaders — do demand Silver.
If you’ve been hoarding Bright Dust, now’s your moment. Make it count.
Conclusion:
Solstice 2025 is shaping up to be an unforgettable event for Destiny 2 players, especially for those looking to maximize their Bright Dust savings. With a wide variety of exclusive cosmetics available through Bright Dust, this year’s Solstice offers a rare opportunity for Guardians to deck out their characters without breaking the bank. However, some items—like the Megalodasher Skimmer and select shaders—are only available for Silver, so planning your currency spend wisely is crucial.
