Patch Notes for the Destiny 2 7.3.0.5 Update

ACTIVITIES

CRUCIBLE

• Playlists
  • As of this week, Checkmate has been moved back to the Labs node for continued iteration with the updated tuning detailed below. Next week will feature 3v3 Clash, which has been modified to reflect a fan favorite from the original Destiny, Skirmish, so revives are enabled. We will run one more Checkmate Trials Lab later this season (on February 9) with the new tuning, but Checkmate is not currently planned to be in the Control node again.
  • Next Iron Banner, there will be an unmodified mode (e.g., Clash, Zone Control, or Supremacy as opposed to Scorched, Momentum, or Mayhem) in the 6v6 Quickplay node, so that those who do not wish to participate in Iron Banner can still find the standard Destiny 6v6 PvP to play.
• Miscellaneous
  • The double rewards icon is now correctly appearing on playlists in Crucible Labs.
  • Fixed an issue where players were able to summon Sparrows during Showdown matches in 3v3 Quickplay.
• Countdown Rush
  • PvP Strike Team Note: At the end of January, we’ll have a larger update aimed at addressing the community feedback on Countdown Rush as a Competitive game mode, including reducing Heavy ammo frequency, updating Sudden Death rules, spawn tuning, and reducing the advantage the attacking team has in the mode.
  • Fixed an issue where a player could be forcibly respawned while a teammate was reviving them.
  • Fixed an issue where a player’s Ghost would spawn too close to the charge, preventing interaction.
  • Citadel and Multiplex maps should no longer be appearing in the Competitive playlist for the Countdown Rush game mode.
• Sparrow Control
  • Brought back a special medal that can only be earned in this game mode.
  • Some larger maps have an increased frequency of appearing in the upcoming Sparrow Control playlist to provide more room for vroom.
• Checkmate
  • PvP Strike Team Note: We have been listening to your feedback on Checkmate and have made a substantial overhaul to the mode to address these pain points.
  • Abilities
    • PvP Strike Team Note: Threaded Specter uptime and Threadling strength versus players will be tuned individually in a future global patch later this season.
    • Reduced melee, grenade, and class ability penalties from 30% to 15%, Super penalties remain at 20%.
    • Increased melee damage by 16%.
