Many Guardians are asking: Right at this armor grind, Guardians who play multiple characters have discovered irregularities. Some players have achieved faster progress on event tasks with their secondary or tertiary characters. Others, however, reported that everything is normal for them despite having multiple characters.
Therefore, many players have wondered if the faster progress is a bug or if it is a new but uncommunicated feature.
Bungie’s statement on faster progress: Now Bungie has addressed this issue. In summary: It is indeed an unmentioned and unexplained quality-of-life feature that the developers introduced for the Solstice of Heroes 2020. This was explained by community manager dmg04 on Twitter.
He stated that he consulted with the team, and yes, the double progress is correct.
Here’s how to achieve faster progress in the Solstice event: He also explained how the double progress in the Solstice grind works. Now everyone should be able to make greater progress.
Once you have received the final legendary armor set of the Solstice (magnificent) on one character, you will achieve +1x progress for completing tasks for the renewed and majestic set on your other characters.
Each completed set provides significant time savings for the remaining characters.
