A new patch for Destiny 2 has gone live and addresses a number of issues that have popped up since the start of the Lightfall expansion. One of the big changes in this update is an adjustment to the Guardian Ranks system, as Bungie has reduced the required Commendations score needed to climb up the ranks according to its patch notes.

The number of Commendation points needed was criticized by the Destiny 2 community for being excessively high, and Bungie previously mentioned that it would lower the requirements to complete objectives across all Guardian Ranks. Players can no longer offer Commendations to others following a failed mission activity, so if you've been spawning into the Wellspring with a fireteam and wiping out your squad with self-inflicted rocket launcher attacks, you won't be able to farm Commendations any longer.

One of the other big issues affecting Destiny 2 was a problem that caused Guardians to become invisible due to them not being rendered correctly in the game, giving some players an unexpected advantage in PvP. This bug, which resulted in a delay to this season's Iron Banner, has now been fixed just in time for the return of this week's Trials of Osiris multiplayer event.
