Destiny 2 guide: The Dawning 2019 recipes, gifts, the Alpine Dash sparrow, and Eververse

Eva’s Holiday Oven 2.0

Head to the Tower and speak to grandma Eva Levante. She’s near Zavala this time around. You’ll be given Eva’s Holiday Oven 2.0 and a handful of ingredients to create the Gjallardoodles cookies. Hand these over to Zavala and you can start progressing through the event proper. You’ll also be rewarded with the Cold Front submachine gun (via a Dawning gift package in your consumables tab). Later, if you want to farm for Cold Front god rolls, these can drop whenever you turn in gifts via various NPCs.

The Dawning 2019’s mechanics and most of the recipes are similar to last year’s holiday event. The gist is that you’ll want to collect ingredients via kills against different enemy races, elemental damage, or weapons that were used.

The Essence of Dawning, meanwhile, can be obtained by completing different activities in Destiny 2: Season of Dawn such as public events, Vanguard strikes, Nightfall strikes, Crucible fights, and Gambit matches. Combine two ingredients plus 15 Essence of Dawning and it’ll result in a holiday treat.

Note: Discovering all Dawning 2019 recipes will masterwork Eva’s Holiday Oven 2.0. Masterworking the oven lowers the cost of Essence of Dawning ingredients that are needed for baking. Needless to say, it’s more important to discover all the recipes first before going on a baking spree for duplicate gifts.
