Destiny 2: Lightfall update fixes invisible ward bug and lowers recommendations for ward ranks

A new patch for destiny 2 has been released and addresses a number of issues that have arisen since the beginning of the Lightfall expansion. One of the big changes in this update is an adjustment to the Guardian Ranks system, as Bungie has lowered the commendation score required to rank up according to your patch notes.

He number of commendation points needed it was criticized by the Destiny 2 community for being too high, with Bungie previously mentioning that it would be lowering the requirements to complete objectives at all Guardian Ranks. Players can no longer offer Commendations to others after a failed mission activity, so if you’ve been spawning in Wellspring with a fireteam and wiping out your squad with self-inflicted Rocket Launcher attacks, you won’t be able to farm Commendations. more extensive.

Another big issue affecting Destiny 2 was an issue that caused wards to become invisible due to not being rendered correctly in-game, giving some players an unexpected advantage in PvP. This error, which resulted in a Iron Banner delayed this seasonit has now been fixed just in time for the return of this week’s Trials of Osiris multiplayer event.

For the new Strand subclass, a number of changes are being made here as well. The internal cooldown of Ascent Thread Fragment has been increased from two seconds to four seconds and detonations from Broodweaver’s Mindspun summon skin should now have an effect on Unstoppable champions.

For weapons, Bungie has made several adjustments to various firearms. The Lightfall versions of The Inquisitor and Mindbender’s Ambition Shotguns had the wrong magazine perks so these have been fixed, and Titans using the Exotic Synthoceps gauntlets will not deal the same level of bonus damage when wielding Glaives.

Also resolved an issue where the radiant effect was not increasing the damage of Strand weapons.

This update comes on the heels of a separate fix that was released recently, which tweaked other aspects of the game. The first such solution decreases your chances of spawning in a empty terminal overload eventand the second solution has adjusted the Duality dungeon to do farming for Artifice armor is less easy. For this week’s patch notes from Bungie, you can find them all below.
