Destiny 2 Solstice is a prestigious annual event in the game that celebrates the Summer Solstice of the year. Bungie temporarily adds new activities, tasks, and weapons in the game, allowing players to be busy farming for armor glows and god roll limited-time gear pieces. The event stays on for three months, and Solstice 2024 is scheduled to be released on August 6, while being active until August 27.

A new year of Solstice also means that new weapons are being released alongside the old ones. However, the 'old' Solstice weapons such as Compass Rose and Crowning Duologue are heavily revamped with new perks to cater to the current sandbox.

One of the most renowned databases, Light.gg, has three old weapons from Solstice listed under "Season 24," which is the Episode Echoes. These versions of the weapons have new perks added to the third and fourth columns.

All the new perks added to the old Solstice weapons in Destiny 2 (2024)

While the new Solstice weapon in 2024 has been leaked to be a Void Bow, the old weapons from previous editions of the event are getting brand-new perks. Some perks are from the current season, such as updating these weapons to the current sandbox. Hence, those considered some of the mediocre weapons in the game might just become meta-defining gear pieces in the coming days.
