There will be 12 unlockable perks per character, and you wil lbe able to reset as much as you want without a cost. Artifact’s anti-Champion weapons can be Overcharged in harder activities.

Champions

With Lightfall there will be new ways to defeat Champions. Those methods include the following:

  • Utilize an Exotic weapon that has an intrinsic perk specifically designed to counter Champions (Eriana’s Vow or Divinity for example).
  • A weapon with anti-Champion artifact perk.
  • Subclass verbs and status effects:
    • Barrier Champions: radiant, volatile rounds, and unraveling rounds.
    • Overload Champions: jolt, suppression, and slow.
    • Unstoppable Champions: ignite, blind, shatter, and suspend.
    • “Bungie stated that verbs work no matter how they are triggered. Two examples:
      • If you are radiant because a Solar Hunter used an Acrobatic Dodge near you, you will shoot anti-Barrier rounds until radiant wears off.
      • If you use a weapon with the Chill Clip perk, the slow effect upon direct hits will stun Overload Champions. And the shatter upon a second hit will stun Unstoppables. While radiant, though, the same weapon would pierce a Barrier Champions, but not stun Overloads.”
  • Exotic weapons that have an anti-Champion status effect will not receive the pierce effect upon applying radiant.

Legendary Campaign

In order to achieve a balanced level of challenge and survivability across all fireteam sizes, the Legendary difficulty level adjusts its scaling depending on the number of players in your fireteam. The scaling of Legendary difficulty is determined by multiple factors, including the amount of incoming damage, the damage threshold required to stagger an enemy, the health of enemies, and the number of revives available.

Changes:

  • Combatants health lowered.
  • Enemies will still have greater health when facing larger fireteams, and in general, Cabal combatants possess a higher base health than other enemy factions.
  • The Lightfall campaign features a reduction in the amount of damage required to stagger combatants.

Claim Rewards

Make sure to claim any rewards (Seasonal Seals and items, Vendor Rewards, Reputation items with Banshee) before the downtime starts on February 27.

Bungie Rewards cannot be claimed or bought during the 24-hour downtime for Lightfall’s launch. To avoid losing them, Season 19 and The Witch Queen Bungie Rewards must be earned and claimed before downtime begins at 9 AM PST (-8 UTC) on February 27. Check your local time.

Information below is from the following articles: TWAB Enhancing Weapon Crafting

Craftable in Season 20

  • Seasonal weapons. 
  • Neomuna weapons. 
  • Base raid weapons 
  • Plus, a handful of other weapons that don't have direct comparisons to TWQ sources. 

Craftable in Season 21 and beyond

  • Seasonal weapons.
  • Raid reprise weapons. 

Here's a look at crafting changes coming:

  • No more Deepsight Attunement objectives
    • "If you obtain a Deepsight weapon and just want the pattern progress, you can dismantle it. If you want pattern progress and also want to keep the Deepsight weapon, you will also have the option to immediately obtain the pattern without dismantling the weapon."
  • Only locked weapon patterns will drop with Deepsight.
    • "When a Deepsight weapon drops after the release of Lightfall, it will signify a reward you will want to engage with immediately, rather than an afterthought you might toss into the vault for later. Deepsight will operate like a checklist – every red border weapon that drops will be pattern progress that can be earned." 
  • Resonant and Harmonic Alloys will be removed in upcoming seasons.
  • Enhance Adept Lightfall raid weapons starting a few weeks after master difficulty for the Lightfall raid releases.
  • Activate Deepsight on any craftable weapon pattern (coming in Season 21).
  • Leveling a weapon will not require equipping it (coming after Season 21).
    •  Level crafted weapons the current if preferred.
