  • Fixed an issue where with Full Auto setting turned on, auto loading a charge-based weapon after emptying the mag allowed you to shoot them without a charge delay.

This Week: Birthplace of the Vile

Grandmaster Changes

The following changes have been made.

  • Decreased the Power level needed to enter Grandmasters by 25 to 1580 (the powerful cap).
  • Decreased the overall Power level of Grandmaster activities by 10 to 1620.
  • The current Power difference of -25 (all enemies are at least 25 Power above you) is still in effect.

"This means you can enter at 1580, but enemies will be 40 Power above you. You can use Artifact Power and/or pinnacle drops to increase effectiveness up to 1595, where you reach maximum effectiveness."

THIS RAID ONLY DROPS PINNACLE GEAR WHEN ITS THE FEATURED WEEKLY RAID.

Raid FAQs

  • As of Season 22, Crota's End raid is the Pinnacle raid. Which means it drops Pinnacle rewards for each completed encounter every week per character. 
  • All other raids grant Legendary Gear. All raids continue to drop their exclusive rewards (such as any raid exotics or Timelost weapons).
  • Adept weapons for the Vow of the Disciple Master Challenge work on a knockout system and can only be obtained from the weekly Master challenge. After collecting all Adept raid weapons, randomly rolled versions will drop.

With Lightfall and Season 20, Raids now have the following added to modifiers:

  • One Overcharged weapon.
  • Two Surges.
  • No Threat modifier.
