New Destiny 2 patch fixes broken Exotics but doesn’t fix Felwinter’s Lie bug

A new Destiny 2 patch has fixed some broken Exotics but has not corrected a bug plaguing Felwinter’s Lie, the game’s newly (re-)introduced Exotic shotgun.

First, Hotfix 2.8.1.2, out now, has corrected “sandbox bugs… [like] Wormgod, Warmind Cells expiditing Supers, etc” as well as a small XP bug, but developer Bungie was quick to point out the fix was planned far ahead of issues that have been discovered with the new questline that leads to Felwinter’s Lie.

In order to earn the new Exotic, Guardians had to work together to complete 9,000,000 Public Events in order to clear the first step of the Felwinter’s Lie questline, The Lie. After slow progress, Bungie added a multiplier to assist… but players have since discovered that the quest’s final mission has a bug that means it cannot be completed. A fix has not yet been deployed.

Destiny 2 is out now on Windows PC, Xbox One, PS4 and Stadia where available.
