Bungie also revealed that Crota’s End Hard Mode is “Almost Ready”
Today on the Destiny Blog Bungie released details about the upcoming January 13th patch which will patch both the Crota’s End raid as well as slightly tweaking the Vault of Glass raid. Here are the changes that Bungie outlined on their blog:
- The existing Pit treasure chest reward moved to killing Ir Yut, the Deathsinger. She has a chance to drop Exotic weapons and armor, class pieces, and Radiant materials.
- The Pit treasure chest will now contain Radiant Materials.
Pit Encounter
- Removed the physics impulse caused by exploding lanterns.
- Players will now be required to cross the bridge in order to complete the bridge encounter.
- Players will now be required to wait for the bridge to be completed prior to crossing with the sword.
- Fixed a rare case where the Shriekers would not spawn, preventing players from reaching the Deathsinger.
- Two Swordbearers will no longer spawn at the same time at the outset of the encounter.
- Crota will now recover from his kneeling state after a player quits.
- Fixed a bug that allowed players to remove the “Presence of Crota” using a Radiance Warlock’s Fireborn ability.
- Fixed a bug that made the Oversoul appear destroyed to some players in a Fireteam when it was actually still active.
- Exotic weapon drops in the Vault of Glass are now Level 32.
The next Iron Banner event will run from January 13th till January 19th.
While the upcoming patch will focus on Crota’s End, Bungie also revealed that the Crota’s End Hard Mode “is going through the final few stages of deployment” and that its “It’s almost ready,”. Players should expect Crota’s End Hard Mode to be released sometime this month but Bungie aren’t going to reveal anything. They did however stat that “ You’ll need to learn a new trick or two, but given your past performances, we’re pretty sure plenty of you will find a way to come out on top and earn some shiny new trophies to take with you on your next adventure“.
Finally players who enjoy the Iron Banner events will be happy to hear that it will be returning from January 13th to January 19th with updated rewards.
Bungie has released details on their upcoming Destiny January 13th patch as well as revealing that they’ll be releasing Crota’s End Hard mode later this month.
