The Update 2.3.1 for Destiny is now available for download. Guardians on PS4, PS3, Xbox One, and Xbox 360 must install the patch upon logging in.
Today, on July 26th, Destiny will receive the Update 2.3.1 shortly after 7 PM. There will not be a server downtime, but you must download and install the patch before you can start playing.
If you are already logged in, you should log out briefly and log back in, as otherwise at 11 PM you may encounter an unpleasant surprise: you will receive a WEASEL error that kicks you out of the game. After installing the update, you can continue playing.
However, some users are also reporting that they received the WEASEL error code immediately and were “forced” to download the update directly. Bungie has also responded to this. Once you have installed the patch, everything should work as usual.
Some Guardians on Reddit are reporting, however, that they continue to see error codes even after installation. Bungie has not yet commented on this.
The update, which is referenced as version 1.25, is approximately 92 MB in size depending on your platform.
Patch Notes for Update 2.3.1
The patch notes for today are quite concise. They want to fix a few bugs before “The Rise of Iron Lords.” This will be the last scheduled update for last-gen, by the way. Henceforth, only updates for the old consoles will be released if there are “game-breaking” issues.
Classes:
- A problem has been fixed where Solar-based “damage over time” only dealt half the intended damage.
- The intellect attribute now generates the correct amount of super energy. A problem with the perk “Electrostatic Mind” has also been fixed.
Armor:
The exotic helmet, Apotheosis Veil, is now available at the Exotic blueprints kiosk. There was also a problem here.
Activities:
- There were issues that ended weekly activities before the weekly reset.
- The missions “Paradox” and “Lost to Light” now grant you Legendary Marks as rewards when they are daily story missions. A problem prevented this reward.
- Guardians who had a full inventory at the post office in the Tower and thus did not receive the “Year 2” Triumph Moments seal book will now find it at the post office.
The patch notes have been provided by Bungie with a significant delay.
