Festival of the Lost Gets Polished
In the spirit of the season, where Guardians don masks to honor the fallen, this update fixes issues in key activities. Haunted Altars of Sorrow now properly register progress, letting you delve deeper into those moon-based rituals without frustrating interruptions. Sweet Tooth challenges, tied to collecting festival treats, also see tweaks that make grinding for rewards less buggy, which means more time building your arsenal against threats like the Red Legion remnants.
What Does the Liminality Strike Disable Mean for Players?
The Liminality Strike is offline temporarily due to scoring glitches, a move that prevents unfair point discrepancies in this high-stakes activity. Once fixed, it'll return, preserving the narrative flow of exploring liminal spaces that echo the lore of Guardians fleeing Ghaul's invasion. In the meantime, shift focus to other strikes for your power progression.
Scoring Tweaks Boost Accessibility
Seven core activities—Insight Terminus, Devil's Lair, Onslaught, and more—now have adjusted scoring thresholds, making it simpler to hit 10,000 points. This change opens up better loot opportunities without excessive grinding, aligning with Destiny 2's RPG elements where customizing abilities and gear is key to defending the last city.
How Does the Hushed Whisper Bow Fix Impact Builds?
The new Festival reward weapon, Hushed Whisper Bow, had a damage output problem that's now resolved. This precision frame bow becomes a viable option for stealth-oriented builds, enhancing your ability to strike from the shadows in both PvE and PvP, fitting into the sci-fi fantasy of reclaiming humanity's edge against alien forces.
Cosmetic and Quality-of-Life Improvements
Cosmetic glitches on Festival armor sets, like incorrect first-person views, are ironed out, so your Guardian looks the part while battling through the solar system. These fixes maintain immersion in the game's open-world warfare, where appearance customization ties into the role-playing depth of forging your legend as a defender of the light.
Overall, this patch keeps the momentum going for Festival of the Lost, ensuring the event's lore-rich activities contribute meaningfully to your Guardian's journey. Check Bungie's official channels for the full patch notes if you're diving in.
