Summary
Bungie confirms an upcoming fix for the recent weapon perk weighting issues thatDestiny 2has been experiencing and also announced it will be giving players free god roll weapons as compensation. Weapon hunting is a core aspect of loot-based games likeDestiny 2, and for Episode Revenant, Bungie has attempted to make the hunt even more important by removing crafting from these seasonal weapons.
However, with the release of Vesper’s Host, players noticed that certain rolls of weapons dropped within the dungeon seemed exponentially rare. A few dedicated players took it upon themselves and discovered thatDestiny 2seems to have a perk weighting issue, where weapons would tend to drop with perks that were close by on the column table. Essentially, this meant that certain combinations would be near impossible to find.
After the diligent work by the community,Bungie confirmed theDestiny 2weapon perk problemand indicated that a fix was coming. Thankfully, a new update on the Destiny 2 Team social account held more information for players, namely that the hotfix was ready and would be applied during the November 5 reset. Bungie again thanked the community for identifying the issue and, as such, Bungie is planning a special event for all players.
Destiny 2 Perk Weighing Issue Fix Date
From November 19-December 3,Destiny 2’s Vesper’s Host dungeonwill be offering double drops for both encounter and activity completions. Not only that, on November 19, players can stop by Banshee-44 at the Tower to find a small collection of curated weapons that have been largely impossible to obtain. It’s worth noting that for the dungeon weapons, players will not only need to own the Vesper’s Host dungeon, but have one completion on it as well. The weapons are as follows:
In the meantime,Destiny 2’s annual Festival of the Lostis in full swing for a limited time, bringing back classic weapons from past events with new rolls to discover. In addition,Destiny 2has added a Heavy Burst arc shotgun named Arcane Embrace, as well as making exotic class items available to all players for the first time; no Dual Destiny needed.
