Destiny 2's latest update went live yesterday and it brought some much-needed fixes. Patch 7.1.0.2 lacked new content but it delivered fixes for some lingering bugs and issues.
The June 13 hotfix makes sure that Vanguard Ops and Gambit Weekly Challenges grant the appropriate number of exotic engrams as rewards. Tier 1 Exotic Focusing on Master Rahool has been re-enabled, and the icon of the Navigator's intrinsic trait has been changed.
The Second Reckoning Triumph now displays the correct weapon names, and the Collective Action weapon perk's damage against Guardians is reduced from 20% to 10%. Verity's Brow now works properly in PvP game mode. You can check out the rest of the changes below.
