Activities 

Grandmaster Nightfall 

  • Fixed an issue where the catchup node wasn't available for players that had completed six different Grandmaster Nightfalls. 

Crucible 

Trials of Osiris 

  • Fixed an issue where players could retain Special ammo between rounds. 

Exotic Missions 

Encore 

  • Fixed an issue where progression could be blocked in the final boss encounter if the player had to repeat either the left or the right capture ring. 
  • Fixed an issue where depositing a Connection Module too early during a certain section of the mission could trigger a team wipe. 
  • Set the text and waypoint of a certain step of the final boss encounter sequence to always appear on-screen to help clarify the need to repeat the sequence from the beginning after a DPS window ends. 

Gameplay and Investment 

Weapons 

  • Fixed an issue where Eriana's Vow was not correctly dealing 67% increased damage to Barrier Champions. 
    • In addition, removed a -40% scalar the weapon had for dealing damage against Barrier Champion shields. 

Abilities 

Hunter 

Threaded Specter

  • Increased cooldown duration of Marksman Dodge and Gambler's Dodge when Threaded Specter is equipped.
  • Removed dodge cooldown penalty after creating clone. 
  • If the clone is destroyed by attacks, it no longer spawns Threadlings. 
  • Increased the amount of time the clone will distract nearby combatants before exploding. 

Snare Bomb

  • Reduced the time the Smoke Bomb projectile lingers in the world from 10s to 3.5s. 
  • Reduced the player movement speed penalty imparted by the smoke by 25%. 

Titan

  • Fixed an issue where some players had the Twilight Arsenal Super unlocked for Prismatic, but not their Void subclass. 

Grenades

  • Swarm Grenade 
    • Increased Swarm Grenade base cooldown duration by 15%.
    • Moved Swarm Grenade to a slower recharge tier for non-passive grenade-energy gains. 

UI & UX

Fireteam Finder

  • Fixed an issue where Encore would not appear as an option in Fireteam Finder. 
    • Due to Fireteam Finder display criteria, players should only expect to see entries (Standard and Expert) for the version of the mission they can currently launch from the HELM.
