While Forsaken may have done a lot to turn Destiny 2 around, there have been some understandable criticisms that have arisen as fans continue to play the massive and ongoing expansion. A lot of those have to do with the game’s sandbox and the viability of certain weapons and weapon types. In response, the latest Destiny 2 update buffs a number of weapons, including the Malfeasance and Wish-Ender Exotics. The new competitive Crucible mode Breakthrough has been reenabled with some fixes that should make it a more fair game.
Gambit has also received a number of changes. Sleeper ammo gains have been reduced, while sword ammo has been buffed. The Ascendant Primeval Servitor required for the Malfeasance quest has had its appearance rates buffed, so players should start seeing the meatball more often than before. Quitter penalties have also been enabled, hopefully reducing the rates of players that quit out of a game when a match isn’t going their way. Finally, Exotic drop rates have been fixed by reducing the chance for duplicate Exotic items. Bungie hopes that this will give players a chance to get some of the new Forsaken Exotics, which haven’t been dropping frequently for many players. Exotic items that can be earned from quests have been removed from the loot pool as well, to hopefully reduce instances of duplicate drops.
