- "I hope you're ready for the Crimson Days, Guardian. Every year the Tower celebrates Guardian teams of two, and so does the Crucible. Show me what you and your Crimson Bond can do."
- — Lord Shaxx
Crimson Days is a limited time event held in the Tower, coinciding with Valentine's Day. The event began on February 9, 2016, and ended on February 16, 2016.[1]
Overview
- "With proper tactics and proper execution, a Fireteam of two Guardians can fight indefinitely. The Crimson Days are a chance to revel in this fact."
- — Lord Shaxx
Crimson Days' focus is a new Crucible mode called Crimson Doubles. Participating in Crimson Doubles will allow players to earn exclusive Crimson Days-themed items.[1]
Gameplay
To participate in Crimson Days, players must obtain the Quest "Crimson Bonds" from Lord Shaxx; note that players must be level 40.[2] Completing the the quest, which involves completing 7 Crimson Doubles matches in a fireteam, rewards the Crimson Crest emblem.
Crimson Doubles is a 2v2 Crucible mode where killing one player on the opposing team will cause the surviving player to gain the "Heartbroken" buff to avenge his or her teammate. "Heartbroken" maxes out the affected player's Armor, Recovery, and Agility stats and increases weapon reload speeds; players affected by "Heartbroken" also gain a fiery red aura to mark them. Random rewards from each match include shaders, Ghost Shells with a random Defense value above the player's current Ghost Shell up to 320 Defense, and Crimson Candy.[2] In addition, daily bounties are offered by Lord Shaxx which can drop Nightfall-tier rewards.
Crimson Candy is a consumable used to activate a 30-minute buff called "Crimson Connection" among all members of a fireteam. "Crimson Connection" increases experience gains for all of a player's equipped weapons. Only one fireteam member needs to use a Crimson Candy to buff the entire fireteam.
