Update: We've compiled a guide on how to get "No Time to Explain", an Exotic Pulse Rifle available starting today.
Bungie has released Destiny hotfix 2.0.1.2, which introduces better Nightfall rewards and other improvements. The patch is available to download now and the full changlog is included below.
The update also fixes Shadowshots, increases the number of Strange Coins rewarded for Crucible matches, and overhauls the Daily Heroic Story, in addition to other changes. Bungie also confirmed that the Hard Mode for the King's Fall Raid will be available from Friday, October 23rd at 10am Pacific.
Update 2.0.1.2's full patch notes are included below.
Bungie has previously admitted that Nightfall rewards could seem "underwhelming" and it could "feel like losing". The developer recommended against playing the mode until the update was available.
