Destiny 2 Midseason Patch Brings Weapon Buffs, but Game Loaded with Bugs and Possible Stealth Nerfs

The latest patch for ‘Destiny 2’ has been highly anticipated by fans for weeks, promising several exciting updates and improvements to the game. However, reports are emerging that the new patch has left a trail of broken features and glitches in its wake. From weapon balancing issues to unintended game crashes, the patch has presented players with a host of new frustrations to deal with. In this article, we’ve compiled a comprehensive list of everything that the new ‘Destiny 2’ patch has broken, so that you can prepare yourself ahead of your next play session.


Destiny 2 released its midseason patch, which primarily focused on buffing primary weapons. While the weapon buffing was successful, the update caused several bugs and potential stealth nerfs. Some of the bugs include grenade mods not working with Strand grapple, the Firepower and Reaper mods not spawning orbs, and the Guardian Games medal triumphs being earned when the event is not live. Additionally, there are ability issues, such as the seeming nerfs to Strand, that break builds and make them feel inadequate. Despite the success of the weapon buffs, the update required a patch to fix the issues it caused.


Despite the frustration, Destiny 2 players can take comfort in knowing Bungie is actively working to address these issues with future patches. It’s inevitable for a game as complex as Destiny 2 to experience some issues after a major update, but the community’s dedication to providing feedback and Bungie’s willingness to listen is what keeps the game evolving. As players patiently wait for a fix, they can still enjoy the other aspects of the game and keep their fingers crossed that the next update brings some much-needed improvements. Until then, happy hunting Guardians!
