What Kindling is Used for in Destiny 2?

As we’ve mentioned earlier, Kindling allows you to upgrade the Candescent armor stats. You can reroll the armor stats using Kindling for a total of three times and here’s what changes every time you roll it:

• 1st Roll (Requires one Kindling): Add Small Embers to the armor.
• 2nd Roll (Requires two Kindling): An armor piece will apply to the armor set in the same slot.
• 3rd Roll (requires three Kindling): Upgrades the armor to the highest level.

The Solstice of Heroes 2022 event ends on August 9. Therefore, make sure that you complete all the event challenges and nab the nifty rewards before the event ends.
