Destiny 2 has had many events over the years since release and Solstice has been one of the main staples. Of course, there are sometimes extra little additions added every year, such as buffs. If you were planning to take to Bonfire Bash, you will want to be sure to know about these buffs. This article will take you through what the Firebound and Flare buffs do in Destiny 2 Solstice 2023.
Flare and Firebound Buffs Explained for Destiny 2 Solstice 2023
What is one thing players want more of in Destiny 2, weapons you say? Why no, buffs of course! With Flare and Firebound you will be able to bring an all-new strategy to your Bonfire Bash matches and even more. Written in the table below is everything you should take note of about these buffs before you make your way into the Solstice festivities.
| Buff | Found in | Benefits and Explanation |
|---|---|---|
| Flare | Vanguard Ops Playlist and Bonfire Bash | If you defeat enemies quickly you will unleash an area of effect fire around you which can easily inflict damage on your foes — definitely a great time to bring the heat in the Summer! |
| Firebound | Bonfire Bash | When you are close to any fireteam member you will automatically have increased rates of Super Regeneration and Recovery. For this reason, I would highly recommend that you go into Bonfire Bash with a full fireteam to make the most of this. |

As can be observed, these buffs will easily be able to change the tide of a Bonfire Bash round so be sure to make use of them. Flare is a personal favorite of mine because who doesn’t love some area of effect fire in games?
Will the Flare and Firebound Buffs Still Be Available After Solstice 2023?
It isn’t likely that Flare and Firebound will stick around for players after Solstice 2023. Instead, I think they will be removed but could possibly return in future Solstice events. The buffs are actually nicely designed and mechanically they are rewarding and useful to have — making a return much more possible, in my opinion.
