Destiny 2 hotfix for March 23 finally addresses one of Lightfall's biggest problems

A new hotfix landing in Destiny 2 Lightfall on March 23 is going to address a major issue that's been causing players grief since the start of the latest expansion's launch: finally, Cabal Thresher damage output is going to be nerfed.

Why is this important? First, a history lesson. With the launch of Lightfall, the Cabal airships got a massive upgrade. Ever since we first stepped foot on Neomuna and started experimenting with Strand powers, the pesky airships began firing missiles that can obliterate you in a single shot. Often from across the map. There's little recourse when a Thresher cannon pops a blast at you, either; it will track around corners, and even through doors on occaision. Given that they spawn, frequently, on new Patrol location Neomuna, they've been the bane of many a Guardian for weeks now.

It's even more egregious in the Nightfalls or Battlegrounds missions that have been given a makeover lately. As well as being harder in general (a change I am here for, for what it's worth), Guardians are also having to contend with Threshers that are outputting damage at way above the intended rate. Getting one-shot by a cannon to the face when you're trying to accrue 200k Lightfall score on Legend is the antithesis of fun, Bungie.

This fan tribute to Lance Reddick as Destiny's Commander Zavala is going to make me well up




I've spent more thousands of hours playing the Destiny games than I care to admit, so the loss of Lance Reddick last week, at the far too young age of 60, hit particularly hard. As the voice of Commander Zavala since day one, Reddick has stoically accompanied us on missions across the solar system, providing fatherly encouragement as we batted away one paracausal threat to humanity after another...
