How to Create and Apply Ornament (by WoW Quests)

What's the best way to change your character's appearance in Destiny 2? 

Ornaments are a highlight of Destiny 2’s character customization. They are unlockable cosmetic items that allow you to change the appearance of your weapons and armor. 

Weapon ornaments are mostly for Exotic weapons that can only be purchased with Silver. However, some can be purchased with Bright Dust from the Eververse, but they’re rarely available. 

You’re likely more familiar with armor ornaments, as they are easily obtainable by completing bounties and earning Synthweave from Ada-1. 

Once you synthesize or obtain ornaments, you can customize the way your Guardian looks. Here’s how to apply ornaments to your weapons and armor in Destiny 2:   

How to Apply Ornaments in Destiny 2:
