In the latest Dawning 2023 event, there are a lot of new quests waiting for players to complete. And it also brings players a new Memento in this event. Many players are eager to know how to obtain this Dawning Memento for decorating their weapons in the game. Players can use Cheap D2 Silver to find good weapons or gears for characters in the game shop.

Complete Winter Night Quest Objectives at First

In order to complete the Winter Night quest, you must complete the following objectives: 

Defeat combatants with snowballs (75 Snowball Final Blows)

Defeat combatants with snowballs that have the Long Winter and Stay Frosty Upgrades unlocked (25 Upgraded Snowball Final Blows)

Bake a Classic Butter Cookie for Eva

At a glance, this seems like a pretty easy selection of objectives, especially thanks to the change where the Dawning weapon and ability kills generate snowballs while you’re in Vanguard Ops or patrol. However, the main issue is the second objective because it requires purchasing three of the Holiday upgrades. At a minimum, you will need to purchase the Long Winter, Longer Winter and Stay Frosty Snowball Upgrades from Eva before this step can progress: this means earning, then spending, 60 Dawning Spirit which, while not overly difficult, can be a bit annoying if you’ve been using Spirit for other upgrades or Engram decoding. 

Snowball Upgrades

The upgraded snowballs are not quite as simple. Eva Levante sells snowball upgrades in exchange for Dawning Spirit. You will need to purchase the Long Winter, Longer Winter, and Stay Frosty upgrades. Once you do so, any enemies eliminated with snowballs will count for both the 75 and 25 snowball final blows. 

Each upgrade costs 20 Dawning Spirit, so you’ll need to collect 60 to buy them all. You can get these from completing bounties for Eva Levante, finishing Triumphs on The Dawning’s event card, or delivering baked goods. If you earn and fully upgrade the Starfarer 7M ship then you can earn one Dawning Spirit each time a Dawning ingredient drops. 

Once you finish the upgrades, get all the snowball final blows, bake and deliver the cookies, and talk to Eva Levante, she will give you the Rime Keepsake Memento, which you can apply to a crafted weapon of your choosing. 

How to Apply the Dawning Memento in Destiny 2

You can apply the Dawning Memento to any of your crafted weapons by visiting The Enclave. Once you attach the Memento to your gun, you’ll be able to track how many Snowballs you create with it starting at weapon level 1. At level 20, your gun will get the Winter Night title, and at level 30 you’ll unlock the Rime Keepsake Shader, which is only available to use on weapons that have the Dawning Memento applied. You can see the unique shader on the Root of Nightmares weapon Rufus’s Fury (Adept) above!

After you’ve obtained your first Dawning Memento, you can open up A Gift in Return for a shot at obtaining more Mementos. This is similar to this year’s Festival of the Lost, which gave players a (small) chance of obtaining its event Memento by decoding the event’s Engrams.

Like last year, the Dawning is early into the beginning of a season, so players can take advantage of the novelty of Season of the Wish to gather ingredients and some Dawning Spirit. If you’re baking goodies, don’t forget to grab some of Eva Levante’s repeatable bounties, which grant you 10 Bright Dust each, and the weekly bounties also grant a good sum of Dust.

If you are willing to equip your weapon with Dawning Memento in Destiny 2, you can try to complete more quests and obtain them in the game. And it is a good choice for players to Buy Destiny 2 Silver to unlock Battlepass for good items and weapons in the season.
