Bungie has released a new update for Destiny 2, bringing the Dawning to life. The Dawning is live, spreading cheer and snowballs across the galaxy. Guardians can wield these frosty projectiles against enemies in various activities. Plus, there’s new loot to warm your Light-infused heart. Without further ado, you can find the full patch notes below:

Destiny 2 Update 8.1.5.1

Activities

Seasonal

The Dawning

  • The Dawning is now live.
    • Snowballs are available to use against combatants in several activities.

Onslaught Salvation

  • Fixed an issue where the bonus Heatwave round was occurring less than intended.
  • Fixed an issue where an invisible ledge was present near the third defense location on Kell’s Grave.

Crucible

Matchmaking

  • Updated backend thresholds to improve matchmaking times and quality of matches.
  • Adjusted fireteam MMR weighting in 6v6 playlists to avoid redundancy with Fireteam Matchmaking.
  • Increased the score threshold at which teams are broken up, in order to allow more matches to recycle and improve matchmaking times.

Dungeons & Raids

Vesper’s Host

    • Fixed an issue where the first secret chest would only reward the first player opening it.
    • Fixed an issue where the Icebreaker Catalyst was not always awarded to players who died during their run.
    • Fixed an issue where players could crash during the boss death.
  • Second Encounter
    • Fixed an issue where the boss would sometimes not reform properly after DPS, resulting in an infinite damage phase.

Garden of Salvation

  • Fixed an issue where the Consecrated Mind boss could be pushed off its starting platform and immediately end the encounter.
    • Feel free to keep using Stasis, if you want…

Salvation’s Edge

  • Fixed an issue where the incorrect wipe text was displaying during the Witness encounter.

Exotic Mission Rotator

  • Fixed an issue where the Featured Exotic Mission was not granting Pinnacle rewards.

UI/UX 

Fireteam Finder

  • Fixed an issue where the Vow of the Disciple raid was missing the Master option in Fireteam Finder.

Gameplay and Investment

Exotic Armor

  • Hunter

      • Decreased amount of Super energy granted for defeating Arc-debuffed combatants while Gathering Storm is being cast to approximately 80% of the previous value.
        • Maximum total energy granted this way remains the same, at 50%.
          • Note: The lightning summoned by Raiju’s Harness on allies and enemies near the user will always apply status effects before dealing damage.

Revenant

Tonics

  • Fixed an issue where Tonic quest progress could become blocked on specific characters.
  • Fixed an issue where the Tonic of Worldly Arms Armor and Tonic of Worldly Chest Armor had incorrect descriptions.
  • Fixed an issue where Legendary Tomb of Elders Weapon Tonics were targeting the incorrect weapons.
    • This fix went live last week in a hotfix.

General

  • Updated the Gjallarheart armor ornament sets in Collections to use their appropriate names.
  • Reduced the requirements for the Fight to the End Triumph from 5/15/30/50 to 5/10/20/40.
