EDIT: To repeat (because a lot of people seem to not get it), there are NO EXTRA REWARDS for this event. No shaders, no emblems, no ships, no weapons, no armor. Just the masks. Completing the quests only gives you a package from Eva that contains a rare mask. This is just for fun. I actually find it funny how everyone was putting their spinfoil hats on when Eververse was announced, but now you're mad that you can't pay for rewards? Lol I just don't get it.
Just a quick explanation of everything in festival of the lost. I'm putting this together based on my assumptions and intuition based on what I've seen and heard so far. I have not tested out everything I say below, so if I am wrong about something, please tell me and I'll correct it.
- During the festival, guardians can acquire masks that they can wear. These masks fill in your helmet slot, so wearing one will bring down your light level. The masks also have no defense level, so you cannot infuse them.
- Thank you Candyman563 for providing a picture of all the available masks.

- Everyone gets 1 free legendary mask and one free rare mask upon starting the quests.
- Eva Levante gives you an empty satchel, which you must fill up with festival candy in order to buy rewards from her. The rewards are a package called "Gifts of the Lost" which consists of materials and 1 rare mask. You can also buy just a mask with 4 scraps of paper.
- Materials are used to upgrade rare masks to legendary ones. Dismantling a legendary mask gives you materials to upgrade other masks with.
- Getting kills on any mode (strike, crucible, story/patrol) with a mask on will grant festival candy.
- Tess Everis is selling three new emotes and reward packages for silver. The packages contain extra materials and 1 legendary mask.
- Legendary masks are permanent items.They will not go away once the Festival of the Lost expires, so once you have a mask it's yours for good. Rare masks must be upgraded to become permanent.
- The quests require you to do various things with different masks on, such as falling off the tower with an Atheon mask equipped (lol). Completing the quests gives you a Gifts of the Lost package.
- The festival lasts until November 9th.
Essentially that's it. There are no big rewards for this such as shaders or emblems. The masks are the main rewards, so if you like them you can have fun trying to get them, and if you don't then it doesn't affect you or the game at all. I think this is a fun little thing Bungie did, and as a day 1 player I'm surprised by the effort put in to this.
Have fun out there guardians and enjoy the festival!

Edited by The_Brasher25: 10/27/2015 4:59:46 PMThe masks are cool but only problem I have with this is bungie wants you to collect all 16 masks...Well that takes up a ridiculous amount of space in vault. Unless bungie adds more space to vault it is not practical! Surprised no one has brought this up yet.

Hey guess what. [spoiler]You look cute today.[/spoiler]
-
You're only supposed to get 1 legendary mask for free, right? Because I somehow got two.
-
Festival of Greed
-
I just wasted $20 trying to get the blue skull mask, AMA
-
Can I do the quest with all three characters?
-
Anyone know what Legacies of the Lost are? Cause it says you get glue from it but I ain't seen any
-
I really don't care because everyones paying for the DLC, and its just cosmetic stuff. I was lucky enough to get the perm oryx helm. I just need skolas now.

Just logged in to check out the event. Call me a cynic but after doing the initial quest and getting all of the new ones from Levante, the event seems like a thinly-veiled excuse to direct people to the cash shop by saying 'You [i]could[/i] farm in PVE for mask parts, or you could just spend some silver and get the masks immediately!' Couple that with the number of posts I've seen where people say 'I spent $X, but never got what I wanted!', and I feel like I'm right. And the moment I realized that wearing a mask reduces your light level while still being required to do a Heroic Strike while wearing one, the desire to play completely left my body.

How do I get more glue
-
Quite the nice surprise when I went to the tower yesterday. Really cool event idea by Bungie. I do however have one complaint, the rewards for completing the special quests are really really weak. Seriously? the exact same reward as you get for filling a bag of candy? As soon as I realized that was the case I stopped doing them and just did candy runs to get the masks I wanted to keep. Completing the quests should have rewarded people with another Treasures of the lost.
-
Fun is good. "Destiny" can't be all about k/d and raid loot.
-
I got crota and skolas with my free package so I'm good on masks
-
Is there a way to empty the candy satchel without having to visit Eva every single time?
-
YOU FORGOT THE LINK TO THE REAL MASKS FOR US www.bungie.net/en/pub/festivalofthelost scroll to bottom and print the pdfs. Eris, Oryx, Speaker, and Engram avaialble
-
So only way to get the coolest mask in the Halloween festival is to buy it ? Wtf bungie
-
So basically if i dont spend any money i cant get a skull mask? I guess theres no point grinding for more masks then
-
Opened 8 crate things and got 6 legendary travelor masks AMA (I'm actually crying rn)
-
So what happens if we open a "treasure of the lost package" after nov 3rd? Will we only receive items that wont expire? Ex: skull mask, jacolyte...
-
Am I the only one looking at the skull saying.. "This is why they removed my free flaming head after nightfall! It was to charge me for a cool flaming head..." I'd rather spend 100 on smite odyssey and get the tier 5 skin than buy 100 in silver going for this mask...
-
So would it be possible for someone to obtain all the masks and upgrade all the rares to legendary without using silver? I enjoy them quite a lot actually.
-
I can't even complete any of the quests. Been trying to get any mask that's required wroth no luck. Just dismantled my twelfth Petra mask though. Thanks rng.
-
I got the free mask but how do I get the other legendary masks. If I upgrade the rare masks do they turn into a legendary version of themselves or a random legendary mask
-
So maybe I got lucky but I turned in my first legendary engram with the exotic engram mask equipped and it turned into an exotic
