There’s a new buff called Firebound that gives you increased Recovery and Super Regen when close to allies.
Also, when you kill the carriers they drop 3 balls that you barely have enough time to throw 2 let alone 3.
Seems like Bungie wants us to run together this year instead of sitting in a corner camping enemy spawns.
Okay, but you could also just clear it faster by spreading out. The buff is for the in-between parts.

You get more balls if you spread out. If you struggle to solo a spawn, that’s he problem.
Max is 30 this year. Assuming you have at least 20 silver leaves and max ignitions you’ll net 20 ash per piece of solstice gear equipped. So if you have all 5 on you’ll get 100 silver ash. You can just equip all 5 pieces once the final boss spawns in, you don’t have to have them equipped.
Sticking together is generally the best strategy, especially playing with randoms. Once you get the throws down there’s only two spots where you can’t throw the ignition charges from where they drop (the alleys to the left and right of where the boss spawns) so when I’m playing with my friends we’ll sometimes split up a bit and I’ll clear an area by myself when I know I can throw all 3 in myself before rejoining them
You can get all 3 as long as the wave spawns around the central area. Aim slightly above the bonfire and it should track to it when you throw.
