Following the launch of Destiny 2`s Curse of Osiris expansion last week, players discovered that--as with Destiny 1--some activities became locked behind the DLC paywall. Players were understandably upset about this, and now Bungie has responded. In a blog post, Bungie started off by saying, `it`s clear that we`ve made some mistakes with how we have handled content access.` The Prestige Nightfall saw its Power level cap requirement increased to a point that non-DLC owners cannot reach, rendering it inaccessible to them. The same is true for the Prestige version of the Leviathan Raid, which means it`s not possible to earn the Achievement/Trophy for completing a Prestige Nightfall or Raid. Additionally, Trials of the Nine was affected by the recent DLC launch. `We`ve heard from the community that both of these plans aren`t working,` Bungie said. `The Prestige Raid was a novel experience that players value, even if they don`t own Curse of Osiris, and it was a mistake to move that experience out of reach. Throughout the lifetime of the Destiny Franchise, Trials has always required that players owned the latest Expansion. However, for Destiny 2, Trials of The Nine launched as part of the main game, so it`s not right for us to remove access to it.`To make matters worse, our team overlooked the fact that both of these mistakes disabled Trophies and Achievements for Destiny 2. This was an unacceptable lapse on our part, and we can understand the frustration it has created.`To make up for these issues, Bungie is releasing a hotfix this that includes all of the extensive changes listed below. The changes are significant; for example, the Power level for the Prestige Leviathan Raid is coming back down to 300, while Trials of the Nine will be open to everyone, though when it`s a Curse of Osiris DLC map, you will of course have to own the content to play it. Due to this update, Bungie is delaying the launch of the new Faction Rally event. Destiny 2 Hotfix Changes:The Prestig ...
