A hotfix update has rolled out for Destiny 2: Lightfall, and for Hunter Threadrunners who have been enjoying the overpowered damage that their new Strand Super is capable of, they'll have to brace themselves for a slight nerf to that ability. Silkstrike, a combination of a Strand grappling hook and rope dart, has boasted the highest Super damage in Destiny 2 since the Lightfall expansion arrived, due in part to it doing hidden double damage according to patch notes.

With Hotfix 7.0.0.3 applied, Bungie says that it has removed the critical strike ability at the tip of the dart and it has instead granted that high-damage behavior to the full length of the dart. Damage has been tuned to compensate for this so that the Hunter's new Super can dish out more balanced damage.

Other gameplay changes include fixing an issue where the Hunter Arcstrider's Disorienting Blow melee ability was not costing energy on hit, progress not being tracked on the Hypernet Current strike, and Destiny 2 crashing whenever the Commendations screen was opened. Manticore, last season's Exotic SMG, should now show up in collections, and an issue where element-focused armor mods would deactivate when spawning into an activity or respawning after death has been resolved.
