Bungie has released the first real post-Forsaken update for Destiny 2 on PC, PS4, and Xbox One. Unlike the two major patches we've seen over the past few weeks, this one (hotfix 2.0.2) doesn't introduce new features, instead focusing on eliminating some of the nagging issues the game has suffered from.
Many of these things involve unintended functionality centered around specific items and classes. Issues have been resolved where players could make 10 Deadfall Void Anchors with the Orpheus Rigs and Moebius Quiver equipped; Shards of Galanor wasn't giving players energy when a knife hit a distant target; Lord of Wolves would lose ammo; and the Explosive Payload dealt less damage than it should have. That's just for starters.

Now Playing: Watch Destiny 2: Forsaken's Opening Mission, Featuring New Scorn Enemies
For PC players, inconsistencies with certain skills have been fixed. Previously, your framerate could dictate how much health Phoenix Dive granted, while Exploding Knives could deal less damage due to the framerate.
For Titan players, leveling up the new subclass tree, Code of the Commander, will now count kills with the Sentinel Super, which should make that process easier. Bungie has addressed problems with bounties not sorting correctly in your Pursuits tab; Lost Sector bounties not registering correctly when playing in a fireteam; and an incorrect objective listing for the Fist of Judgment bounty. A number of Triumph-related bugs have also been resolved.
What isn't fixed is the accidental weekly reset that took place over the weekend, which resulted in players not receiving Powerful rewards at the correct levels. Additionally, the Ace of Spades quest's first step--where you are asked to get invasion kills in Gambit with a hand cannon, but must instead kill invaders--remains broken. Regarding the exploit to farm Prime engrams, Bungie recommends avoiding it, as it could cause the game to prevent you from receiving further ones for several weeks. And the Raid chests--which players managed to access despite the Raid not yet being available--have been removed, though the gear they offered won't be taken away. These are among the variety of known issues as outlined on Bungie's website.
For a look at everything included in hotfix 2.0.2, check out the patch notes below. We've also got some Forsaken tips and a review-in-progress for you to peruse. You can also see all of the new Forsaken Exotic weapons and armor we've discovered so far.
