Sandbox

General

• Chaos Reach
• Tuned Chaos Reach’s deactivation cost so that it consistently retains Super energy from deactivating early.
• Previously, Chaos Reach allowed Players to save Super energy when deactivating the Super early by charging a flat Super energy cost upon deactivation (~65%). This meant that in order to save Super energy, you’d have to deactivate within the first second or so of the Super’s duration.
• With this change, Chaos Reach’s deactivation will now always save you some Super energy. Deactivating the Super is no longer a flat energy cost but, rather, now works on a curve. The intention is to reward players for skillfully timing their deactivation.
• Fixed an issue where the overshield granted upon respawning in Crucible would not negate damage right away
• Increased damage required to destroy Nightstalker Tethers prior to their activation
• Fixed an issue where the Biotic Enhancements buff would apply too much of a damage multiplier when standing in a Well of Radiance

Armor/Weapons

• Fixed an issue where Scavenger perks could be used to generate heavy ammo off of team mates who fell to self-inflicted misadventure 
• Fixed an issue where high impact scout rifles were not firing at 150 RPM
• Fixed an issue where the impact stat bar for Fusion Rifles was not updating when upgrading a charge time masterwork for the weapon
• Gwisin Vest
• Fixed an issue where kills were not required to extend Super uptime
• Fixed an issue where Super was not extended after 10 or more kills
• Chromatic Fire
• Fixed an issue where explosions were doing less damage than intended
• Reduced the amount of ammo gained from the Machine Gun Scavenger perk to bring it in line with other Power weapon scavenger perks
• Fixed an issue that caused the Black Armory weapons to sometimes roll two of the same perk 
• Duplicate perks have been replaced in each weapon’s talent grid

  

Crucible

General

• Fixed an issue that caused The Mountaintop to drop above appropriate power levels for players who do not own Forsaken, making it unequipped unless pulled from collections
• Fixed an issue that caused Valor Ranks to display different values from what their rank actually was
• This is strictly a visual fix, ranks have worked properly since Season of the Forge began

Gambit

General

• Fixed an issue where the wrong team would sometimes be credited for killing the Ascendant Servitor Primeval
• Reduced the amount of ammo that Linear Fusion Rifles receive from the Power Ammo crate in Gambit to from 5 to 3 rounds
• Sleeper Simulant still only receives 2 rounds
• Players who die with fewer than 2 rounds of special ammo will now always respawn with 2 rounds, to help alleviate special ammo starvation
• Fixed an issue where players would be held in a loading screen if another player was inspecting items in inventory

General

• Prime Engrams will now appear more frequently for players under 550 power, and provide larger power benefits when decrypted
• Fixed an issue where the “Harbinger’s Echo” sparrow was locked out for players who destroyed dragon eggs across multiple characters.
• We are currently developing a fix for an upcoming patch to address players who have already destroyed all eggs prior to this update. Update 2.1.3 is tentatively planned for December 18. 2018

Seed of Light added to the drop table of the Blind Well Heroic

• The “Lest Ye Be Judged” Trophy/Achievement can be completed by visiting Xur
• Fixed an issue where the “Riddle Me This” Triumph was not unlocking properly
• Fixed an issue where Amanda Holliday had an improper notification waypoint
• Fixed an issue where Festival of the Lost armor could not be masterworked
• Fixed an issue where items could not be masterworked if players did not have Enhancement Cores in inventory, even if the masterwork cost did not require cores
• Fixed an issue where Amanda Holliday’s inventory did not refresh at the proper times

---

UI

General

• When selecting an activity that supports checkpoints on the Director, players can now delete their current checkpoint before launching the activity
• This includes Last Wish, Scourge of the Past, Leviathan, Eater of Worlds, and Spire of Stars

Providing insight into the future of smartphone technology — and taking a jab at Apple — Qualcomm President Cristiano Amon said that by the end of 2019, all Android handset makers will have at least one flagship device capable of accessing speedy 5G networks. Apple’s iPhone is not expected to make the leap to 5G until 2020.

With Qualcomm being the sole provider of baseband chipsets to most major Android manufacturers, Amon’s statement is less a prediction than it is a promise.

“When we get to exactly this time of year one year from now we will see every [handset maker] on the Android ecosystem, their flagship across all US carriers will be a 5G device,” Amon told CNET in an interview at Qualcomm’s Snapdragon Technology Summit in Hawaii. “Every Android vendor is working on 5G right now.”

Specific release dates and details were left unmentioned, but a slide presented during Amon’s keynote listed a number of major firms who are partnering with Qualcomm on the 5G rollout initiative. Those companies include Asus, Fujitsu, Google, HMD, HTC, InSeeGo, LG, Motorola, Netgear, NetComm Wireless, OnePlus, Oppo, Samsung, Sharp, Sierra Wireless, Sony, Telit, Vivo, WingTech, WNC, Mi and ZTE.

Hammering home the notion that 5G is knocking on consumers’ doors, Samsung at the event showed off prototype devices running on hyper-local 5G networks set up by AT&T and Verizon. The “proof of concept” phones were powered by Qualcomm guts including Snapdragon X50 5G NR modem and antenna modules, an integrated RF transceiver and other components from the Snapdragon Mobile Platform.

Apple, and any mention of iPhone, was conspicuously absent at the event. The Cupertino tech giant is embroiled in a bitter legal battle with its former supplier, and has since turned to Intel to meet its cellular modem needs.

In November, and again this week, reports claimed a 5G-capable iPhone will debut in 2020. That puts Apple’s timeline more than year behind Android vendors that plan to first integrate the technology in early 2019.

That said, Apple is typically slow to adopt the fastest cellular standards. The first iPhone, for example, launched without support for the then-cutting-edge 3G standard, while 4G LTE integration arrived much later than competitors when iPhone 5 received support in 2012.

While missing out on “first to market” claims, Apple’s launch plans should ramp well with a buildout of supporting infrastructure. Carriers like Verizon, AT&T and Sprint are in the early stages of seeding their respective networks with compatible base stations, and widespread availability is not expected until at least 2020. Amon at Tuesday’s event highlighted Qualcomm’s 5G working partners, which include the three major U.S. carriers and international players like China Mobile.

Still, the road to 5G will be slow going. At the event, AT&T senior vice president Kevin Petersen said the percentage of devices with 5G capabilities in the U.S. in 2019 will be in the “low single digits,” the report said.
