The newest things to come to Destiny 2 are a new Exotic quest for Ruinous Effigy and the Moments of Triumph, the game's yearly opportunity for players to show off their biggest achievements in the game and earn some flashy rewards. This year's Moments comes with some major upcoming changes to the game, though--the removal of several destinations and their activities, which is set to happen with the Beyond Light expansion this fall. Since that includes a bunch of raid activities, the update makes them all much more rewarding.
Bungie detailed the changes in Update 2.9.1 on its blog, complete with full patch notes. It primarily sets the stage for Moments by altering how rewards get dished out in several raid activities. Usually, you can only run a raid one time per week on a given character and expect to get the best rewards. If you're hunting the Exotic grenade launcher Anarchy in the Scourge of the Past raid, for instance, you would only have one shot at it each week on your Titan. You can increase your chances to three a week if you run the raid on all three characters, but once you've got those three completions, you're stuck waiting for Destiny 2's weekly reset on Tuesdays to try again.

That changes with the latest patch. Now you can "farm" those activities for their rewards as much as you want--meaning you can keep beating the Scourge of the Past until you finally get Anarchy, or any other reward you're missing. The change applies to Scourge, which will leave Destiny 2 in the fall, and to all the raid activities that take place on the Leviathan location: the Leviathan raid itself, the Crown of Sorrows raid, and the two smaller raid lairs, Eater of Worlds and Spire of Stars.
