Destiny 2 Dev Tracker

To make this clear- the change was shipped in update 2.2.1, this is simply a missed patch note.

Wanted to make sure we provided context and transparency.

Hey all,

We've just come across a minor change to Striker Titans that was not included in the last round of patch notes from Destiny 2 Update 2.2.1. We wanted to give a bit of context for the change, so here's a quick writup from the team:

Sandbox: For Arc Week we made a bunch of changes to the Striker Bottom Path. The result of these changes was an increased effectiveness at performing melee kills. This, combined with the previous buffs to the super to make it last longer and therein get more melee kills, led us to the thinking that ...

Did you purchase these packages on a single character, or over multiple?

Also, did you receive any Enhancement cores?

I've been seeing some reports of this, but trying to nail down some of the details on what players are experiencing.

He is an agent of the Nine. His will is not his own.

Just confirmed that Orbs will drop in Iron Banner and will count towards the Triumph.

This was fixed in 2.2.1. Here is the patch note:

"Quest progress for the Survival Guide or Hidden Messages quest steps will now re-initialize properly; if you are stuck on these quest steps, you should abandon them and pick them up again from the Drifter to update the "tapes discovered" count"

Let me know if you continue to have any issues after you reset the quest.

I believe they will be on, but I'll confirm.

We talk about that here if you want to check it out.

We have the ability to turn off the Orbs server side, but the Tonic would require a client patch.

I do love me some rolls.

Sorry about that. You can add another week to your plan though, you will have 4 weeks after the Revelry ends.

I don't believe we have the ability to do this, but I can ask.

If we don't, there's potential for this to be something we add as a QOL feature for the future. Can't make a promise on that, but we'll make sure the team is aware.

With the Revelry, we wanted to rejuvenate every activity type in Destiny with a global change to the Sandbox meta that lasted for a limited time. We knew this would be disruptive, but were willing to try the experiment because the event only lasts for a few weeks.

It’s clear we overshot – instead of adding excitement and variation to the Crucible (especially in Competitive), we’ve instead made the experience random and frustrating.

We don’t have the ability to immediately remove Tonics in Competitive via our servers. We’ll continue to investigate possible changes but this experiment will have to run the duration of the Revelry before we can patch a change.

We’ve learned a lot from the last 2 days of Revelry. The next time we make changes that affect the overall Sandbox for a limited time, we will ensure a much better experience for the Crucible.

Thanks! Glad to be of help!

Looping back to this - turns out indeed that this is just an old test item that never ended up getting used. We'll pull it out the next time we release - it'll be a couple of weeks, but it should disappear by the end of the month!

We investigated it. Found there was a bug where this title was requiring Forsaken. It will be fixed in a future update.

I hope that transmat takes you to jail for this crime that you've done.

Haha GGs. Sorry for bringing you down. I was working on Lunas and running double Hand Cannon. :)

Yeah, go for it! Gives us a good place to relay info for future reference!
