Destiny 2 December 12 Update: Full Patch Notes Listed
If you recently finished the Warlord’s Ruin dungeon flawless and solo you might have been flabbergasted when the end screen spat out the wrong awards. But never fear, if you do it again, you’ll get the right loot this time. But beyond that, this patch also nerfs the Orbs your stacked mods will create and reduces the overall cost of Legacy Decoding at Ritual vendors. Let’s dive right in.
