"There's got to be a joke here. How many Warlocks does it take to make an island float?"

European Aerial Zone is a limited-time activity and location introduced during Solstice.

It first appeared in the Season of Opulence and later became a reoccurring feature for the Season of Arrivals, Season of the Splicer, Season of the Haunted, Season of the Deep, and Episode: Echoes.

Overview

Located off the coastal regions of the Winding Cove, the European Aerial Zone is a floating island where areas of the European Dead Zone have been lifted into the air.^[1] Whilst the origins of its creation is unknown, it is believed that Ikora Rey and a group of Warlocks created the region as an unusual surprise to commemorate the Solstice of Heroes holiday.^[2] In "The Holiday Begins" quest, Eva Levante first provided coordinates of the location so that Guardians can meditate and perform combat drills.^[1] The European Aerial Zone can be accessed either through the Tower destination directory or by interacting with the small blue map of the EAZ near the Solstice statue. Eventually, it became the site where the Bonfire Bash activity occurs, where they must defeat Ignition Carriers to obtain an Igniter to stoke a bonfire at the center.
