1.2.0.2 – The one that addresses some House of Wolves issues


Ever since House of Wolves was released, we’ve been following player feedback on multiple fronts. These changes to the player experience are being deployed to correct a few issues that you’ve noticed – as well as a few we noticed.


Key Highlights

• The first Wanted Fallen Bounty completed each week is now guaranteed to drop a Treasure Key
• Greatly increased the drop rate of Treasure Keys from the small chests at the end of the Prison of Elders
• Increased the drop rate of Treasure Keys from Ether Chests

Prison of Elders

• Greatly increased the drop rate of Treasure Keys from the small chests
• Class Items will now drop from Level 32, Level 34, and Level 35
• Fixed a bug in which the Ship (Hildian Seeker) did not drop under certain circumstances
• Fixed a bug in which the ‘Elder Cipher’ Bounty could not be acquired if your Bounty inventory was full
• You will need to defeat Skolas again to receive the ‘Elder Cipher’ Bounty
• Damage caused by Qodron’s Gaze is reduced by 25%
• Damage multiplier for the Jailbreaker buff increased by 100%

Trials of Osiris

• Fixed an issue in which Trials of Osiris emblems were not sent to the Postmaster if your Emblem inventory was full
• Passage Coins can now be dismantled

Weekly Heroics

• Fixed an issue where the Weekly Heroic strikes did not award engrams (Note: Tooltip will not display them as rewards)

World

• Increased the drop rate of Treasure Keys from Ether Chests
• Ether Chests may only be looted once per spawn
• Ether Chests will no longer grant ammo consumables when opened
• Ether Chests will now grant a small amount of Queen's Wrath reputation when opened
• Ether Chests now have a chance to drop Tokens of Flight, Identity, and Judgment

Quests

• Petra will no longer display a quest waypoint for players who have not purchased House of Wolves
• Fixed a bug in which players abandoning the ‘Gone to Ground’ quest were still being directed to the Venus Patrol

Bounties

• The first Wanted Fallen Bounty completed each week is now guaranteed to drop a Treasure Key

Weapons

• Fixed a bug in which the 1.2.0.1 hotfix mistakenly did not contain the 1.1.1 Fusion Rifle balance changes. As a result, players were playing with its pre-1.1.1 weapon balance state. The original fix has been re-applied.

Items

• Tokens of Flight, Identity, and Judgment can now be dismantled to gain +10 House of Judgement reputation each
• Ammo consumables can now stack to 100

In summary (the important stuff)

First fallen bounty grants a key, increased key drop rates from PoE chests
No more multiple ether chest grabs
Ammo stacks to 100

Excellent, now I don't need to spend any more time farming chests.

I'm glad you can dismantle the tokens now. I've already received enough for 4 class items, all 4 ships, and 3 shaders.

Void burn on skolas will be nice. Only down side is that means I really have to run Crota hard this week; need me a word of crota, bad.

AMMO STACKS! Finally. Now i have vault space.

Glad they're increasing key drop rates and guaranteed drops.

Just watched a video of a group downing Skolas on their first go. Looks so much more manageable. The burn him down quick to about 25% or so using snipers and corrective measure. Then had to go get both sets of mines, came back and downed him. It'll be nice to not necessarily have to down him in that first run.

Probably gonna have to reroll my LDR and hope to get void burn on it. It's arc now, but that's kinda redundant since I got the PoE arc sniper.

Great changes. I never understood how ammo consumables only stacked to 20? It seems like an easy fix.
I spend a lot of time managing inventory and its becoming cumbersome. Now if they can speed up the cool down timer for synths. It seems like an eternity waiting for the cool down in some situations.

That could be a cool perk for an exotic.

I think that for the boss fights (the end ones, not the mini ones) you should just spawn with full ammo/super. Just cut out the monotonous ammo runs
