The holiday spirit is once again in full swing in Destiny 2 with the much-loved Dawning event. This year, Eva Levante has added a delightful new recipe to our baking repertoire: Peanut Butter Paw Prints, a treat specifically made for Archie, the adorable cybernetic dog of the Tower.
Even with the many updates and changes that have hit Destiny 2 since The Edge of Fate, the essence of the Dawning stays consistent: defeat foes, gather ingredients, bake cookies, spread joy, and ideally snag a Holofoil weapon from your gift.
The main quest for this year’s event invites you to bake two exciting new recipes: Dark Matter Drizzlers meant for the Dean of the Aionians, and those whimsical Peanut Butter Paw Prints for Archie, who, surprisingly, doesn’t require actual peanut butter. Ready to learn how to craft these tasty treats during this year’s Dawning? Let’s dive in!
How to Make Peanut Butter Paw Prints in Destiny 2’s Dawning
- Dark Ether Cane
- Balanced Flavors
- Essence of Dawning x15
- Masterworking Eva Levante’s oven decreases the cost to 10 Essence of Dawning.
To get Dark Ether Cane, you need to take down Scorn enemies. These creatures can be elusive, but you can find them in various activity portals, like Nightmare Containment and Kell’s Fall. You can also visit the Bay of Drowned Wishes Lost Sector in the Dreaming City for a good chance of spotting them.
Next, Balanced Flavors drop whenever you defeat foes using specific weapons such as bows, pulse rifles, scout rifles, or sniper rifles. For an abundance of this ingredient, wielding Trinity Ghoul or Graviton Lance is an excellent strategy since they work wonders on lower-tier enemies.
Lastly, you’ll earn Essence of Dawning by completing Portal activities. Quick runs through Solo Ops are a solid option, but the Vanguard Alerts playlists generally provide fast-paced fun with decent rewards. Keep an eye out for activities that offer Distorted Dawning Engrams to maximize your drops.
Once you have gathered all your ingredients, bake those delicious Peanut Butter Paw Print cookies and bring them to Archie, who awaits you in the Tower’s Annex, just across from Ada-1’s workshop. While we can’t guarantee they’re safe for all canines—particularly a cybernetic one with quite the backstory—Archie will surely appreciate the gesture.
How do I start the Dawning event in Destiny 2?
To kick off the Dawning event in Destiny 2, visit Eva Levante in the Tower. She’ll guide you through the basics and give you your first recipe.
Can I use any weapons to gather ingredients?
No, specific weapons like bows, pulse rifles, scout rifles, or sniper rifles are necessary to collect certain ingredients, like Balanced Flavors.
What are the benefits of baking cookies in Destiny 2?
Baking cookies helps you earn rewards, including Holofoil weapons, and adds to the playful holiday spirit within the game.
Do the ingredients respawn in Destiny 2?
Yes, ingredients like Dark Ether Cane and Balanced Flavors are designed to respawn, allowing you to farm them as needed during the Dawning event.
What happens if I don’t have enough Essence of Dawning?
If you lack enough Essence of Dawning, consider playing through more Portal activities or Vanguard Alerts to gather more; you can also reduce the cost by mastering Eva’s oven.
