Activities

Seasonal Exotic Activity

• Animation changes made to the Data Collection boss encounter in The Variable Exotic mission that had the potential to cause issues with photosensitive players.

Player Journey

• Increased drop rate for Exotic armor in Legend and Master Lost Sectors when playing solo.
• Fixed an issue that prevented the “Vex Incursion Countermeasures” weekly bounty from resetting at rest.
• Fixed an issue where players on their alternate characters could not progress the Hall of Heroes intro quest after interacting with the statues early.
  • Any players who ran into this issue may now progress normally.

UI/UX

• Made an adjustment to how the Return to Orbit option is triggered after completing a specific Battleground.
  • Previous implementation enabled mistakenly skipping end-of-mission cinematics when returning to orbit from the Commendations screen.

Gameplay and Investment

Armor

• Fixed an issue where some Artifact mods were not properly proccing Anti-Barrier capabilities.
• Hunters: Fixed an issue where Volatile Rounds granted by the Gyrfalcon's Hauberk exotic chest were not providing Void weapons with anti-barrier capabilities.
• Armor Scavenger Mod: Fixed an issue where Jötunn would get an unintentional boost in ammo, particularly in PvP, with the Solar Scavenger mod equipped on a player’s chest armor.
  • Put. The toaster. Down.

Weapons

• Fixed an issue where the Winterbite Exotic Glaive was doing more damage than intended to targets.
• Titans: The bonus to Glaive melee damage granted by Exotic Synthoceps gauntlets has been reduced against both combatants and enemy Guardians.
• Fixed an issue where the Lightfall versions of The Inquisitor and Mindbender’s Ambition Shotguns had the incorrect magazine perks.
• Fixed an issue where Grand Overture’s blinding effect applied to other sources of splash damage.

Abilities

• Strand: Increased the internal cooldown of the Thread of Ascent Fragment from two seconds to four seconds.
• Strand: Fixed an issue where after a player grappled to a thrown Tangle, the Berserker’s Into the Fray Aspect would fail to activate on further Tangle detonations.
• Strand: Fixed an issue where the suspending detonation from the Broodweaver’s Mindspun Invocation Aspect was not properly stunning Unstoppable Champions.
• Solar: Fixed an issue where the radiant effect was not increasing the damage of Strand weapons.
• Strand: Fixed an issue where the Thread of Generation Fragment would stop functioning after a Silkstrike Super deactivation when either the Shackle or Threadling Grenade is equipped.

Power and Progression

• Guardian Ranks: To more closely match the goals of Guardian Ranks, we have reduced the required Commendations score to complete objectives across all Guardian Ranks.
  • UNLISTED: New Commendation requirements:
    • Rank 7: 460 (was 750);
    • Rank 8: 790 (was 1,250);
    • Rank 9: 1,290 (was 1,750);
    • Rank 10: 1,530 (was 5,000);
    • Rank 11: 1,800 (was 6,000).
• Guardian Ranks: Rank-8 objectives require tier-3 difficulty or higher.
  • Fixed an issue where only tier-4 or higher applied towards Rank progression.
• Commendations: Players can no longer offer Commendations to others following a failed mission activity.

General

• Fixed an issue where Guardians and their weapons were not rendering properly, effectively making them appear as “invisible” when in-game.
• Twitch Gift Sub Bounty reward now correctly appears in the Cryptarch.
