Changes with Update 4.0.1.2 in Season 16
This is what the hotfix brings today: This week, Bungie is bringing an update to the emblem “Broken Barriers” and is currently planning to adjust the following details in the game.
- The use of Nova Bomb fails if Nova Bomb is used too soon after entering Nova Warp.
- The use of Nova Bomb with low Nova Warp super energy can result in players losing their super before ability damage is dealt.
- The Exotic Titan leg armor “Antaeus Wards” does not change glow color depending on focus.
- Weapons and UI elements sometimes fail to load correctly when players enter the Ascendant Realm in the Psi-Ops Battlegrounds.
However, the update 4.0.1.2 has initially only brought minimal changes to the game:
- On the “Grandmaster” difficulty level, class items have been removed from the rewards pool for encounter completions.
If you encounter issues in the game, it is recommended to report them directly through the official Bungie Help Forum to make the developers aware of them.
