A Destiny 2 adagio remarks, “the line between Light and Dark is so very thin,” yet when it comes to Ether Cane and Dark Ether Cane, that line is prominently thicker. Both of these ingredients play a crucial role in the Dawning festivities, and to fully enjoy this seasonal event, you’ll need to collect at least one of each.
These two ingredients are somewhat rare drops within Destiny 2. Defeating specific enemies gives you a shot at acquiring them, and they’re also featured in the event quests where you’ll be asked to bake delightful treats like Dark Matter Drizzlers and Peanut Butter Paw Prints. Let’s get into the details of how to secure this duo of materials in the game.
How to Get Ether Cane in Destiny 2
Ether Cane drops whenever you eliminate a Fallen enemy in Destiny 2, no matter where you are in the game. If you want to gather a good amount quickly, head to locations like the Steppes or the Divide in the Cosmodrome, or check out Trostland in the EDZ.
If you’re interested in farming, you might try Solo Ops activities such as K1 and Caldera, which sometimes contain Fallen as foes. Just remember, the available enemy factions rotate daily. You can also engage in activities like Ketchcrash (Arena Ops) where Fallen might be your adversaries. Keep an eye on faction modifiers to find out who you’ll be up against.
How to Get Dark Ether Cane in Destiny 2
Dark Ether Cane drops from the Scorn, a corrupted faction of the Fallen created through the use of Dark Ether. They’re a bit less common than other enemy types, but you can find them in Nightmare Containment in the Arena Ops playlist. Another great spot to farm this ingredient is in the Bay of Drowned Wishes Lost Sector in the Divalian Mists within the Dreaming City.
Once you gather enough of these unique ingredients, you can bake the required pastries for the NPCs. Delivering these treats gives you a chance to receive a special item called A Gift In Return, which could include event-themed weapons and other rewards.
