We just launched [b]Hotfix 2.5.0.2[/b] which contains a Sandbox tuning pass and changes to the Crucible. If you want an in-depth exploration into some of these changes you can watch our [url=https://www.twitch.tv/videos/120721482]live fire demonstration here[/url]. For those interested in the bullet points we have the full [url=https://www.bungie.net/en/News/Article/45661]Patch Notes[/url] up as well.
In the interest of full transparency, we do need to clarify something in this update. Our test team discovered that the changes to the Blade Dancer Perk Hungering Blade were being applied to several other Health Regen Perks. Here is a quote from Sandbox designer Josh Hamrick.
[quote]Over the last couple of days, as we continued to test the patch, it came to our attention that the changes we made to Hungering Blade were unintentionally shared among a number of additional elements (list below). While we considered delaying the hotfix to remove the shared change, we ultimately decided to live with the patch we’d made and tested. We believe that Hotfix 2.5.0.2 is an important step forward to maintain the health of the game and that getting it out to you ASAP is in everyone's best interest. And besides, no one wants to show up empty handed on Valentine’s day.
List of affected elements:
• Hungering Blade (Arc Hunter)
• Transfusion (Striker Titan)
• Cauterize (Sunbreaker Titan)
• Lifesteal (Voidwalker Warlock)
• Red Death perk
• Suros Legacy Perk (Suros Regime)
• No Backup Plans
• Ward of Dawn cast
• The Ram
• Apotheosis Veil
• Embrace the Void (Voidwalker Warlock)
Over the next couple of weeks, we will be diligently watching and listening to what you have to say about these changes. While we will be unsurprised if additional tweaks need to be made, we are honestly super interested to see how these changes, intended or not, play out. We will be relying on you to give us your feedback as you grow accustomed to the feel of the game over the next couple of weeks. We will also be with you ingame, playing along and making our own notes… Apparently, I have to redeem myself for my stream performance anyway.
Now if you’ll excuse me, I have a 1st date with a potential Skorri fix…

2 RepliesBungie this is completely unacceptable, you release a broken patch and fail to include it in the main forum describing the patch. Back in year one you left a broken PvP with thorn reigning king for months and no patch. I don't understand how you could possibly let this go live. You did do a good job with the special except sidearms but that's a topic for another discussion. The reason you broke it all to begin with was when you nerfed the hungering blade perk because of what one man on your team wanted. That subclass is already completely underused so I highly suggest you stop that and all the other Regen glitches with it. Please I am begging you, I truly love this game and have 1700+ hours on it. I have played it almost non stop since beta. Fix this before it is too late, before you lose all your fans. Doing this truly makes me lose confidence in your company and the future of Destiny. My 2 favorite subclasses, voidwalker and sunbreaker have been dragged through the mud and thrown in the garbage just along with blade dancer because you messed up and refused to fix one perk that should not have even been nerfed. I understand I may have repeated myself several times but I am extremely heated and disappointed in this.
