Destiny 2 Update 9.1.5.2 Patch Notes: Weekly Reset on October 21

The recent patch accompanying Destiny 2’s weekly reset on October 21 has removed an entire currency from the game. Unstable Cores, which were previously used to infuse gear to a higher Power level above 200, have now been replaced with a fixed cost consisting of Enhancement Cores and Glimmer. Players will also notice several adjustments to their abilities following the update.

This article provides a comprehensive list of all the patch notes included in Destiny 2’s Update 9.1.5.2, based on Bungie’s official website.

1) Gameplay and Investment

Power and Progression

Infusion Costs: Unstable Cores have been deprecated as the currency for Infusion. They have been replaced with a flat cost of one Enhancement Core and 5,000 Glimmer regardless of Power level. Additionally, Unstable Cores will no longer be granted when dismantling gear.

Exotic Armor

Stronghold: Fixed an issue where Stronghold wasn’t providing Ergo Sum with infinite Guard and maximum Guard Resistance.

Weapons

Weapon Perks: Fixed an issue where the enhanced Controlled Burst perk was not gaining improved duration over the base perk.

Abilities

  • Titan – Prismatic Shiver Strike Melee: Now refunds 80% when not hitting a target in PvE and 40% in PvP, as originally intended.
  • Hunter – Solar – On Your Mark Aspect: Removed cooldown on building On Your Mark stacks in PvE. Precision Hand Cannon hits now grant two stacks of On Your Mark. Precision hits and final blows at ten stacks will refresh On Your Mark.
