As promised, Bungie has released a brand new patch for Destiny 2. Update 2.5.2 adds support for the Solstice of Heroes event. During this event, players will need to upgrade their new set of armor by completing a number of objectives and participating in a new activity that’s specific to Solstice. Moreover, there will be new cosmetic rewards to acquire during the event.
Update 2.5.2 also comes with some Weapon and Armor tweaks/changes/fixes. For example, it fixes an issue that allowed the Feeding Frenzy perk to be applied to any weapon, fixes an issue where the cloth component of the Iron Symmachy Cloak wasn’t rendering correctly, as well as an issue where the cloth component of the Terra Concord Mark wasn’t rendering correctly.
As we’ve already reported, this patch also comes with some Tribute Hall, Iron Banner and Menagerie / Chalice tweaks, and some changes to the Truth quest. For instance, it fixes a bug where players could become blocked from earning Truth if they opened the Ascendant chest in the strike “Warden of Nothing” before being on the appropriate quest step.
Last but not least, Bungie has fixed an issue where completion notifications would not appear after players completed bounties (which will also fix an issue where players would sometimes not spawn during a Crucible match).
As always, Battlenet (or Blizzard’s app if you will) will download this patch the next time you launch its client, and you can find its complete changelog below.
Destiny 2 Update 2.5.2 Release Notes
- Oct 11, 2019 Destiny 2: The Best Vex Offensive Weapon Rolls. These are the rolls players should be hunting for as they earn the four weapons exclusive to Destiny 2's newest game mode Vex Offensive.
- All Discussions Screenshots Artwork Broadcasts Videos News Guides Reviews. I have a Last Hope 99% god roll with Feeding Frenzy and Multikill Clip and it is ridiculously brutal. Last Hope would be my number 1 pick due to the perks it can roll, but it's also harder to get than other sidearms.
