Destiny Update 1.0.2

Update 1.0.2 addressed widely-discussed concerns with how engrams were earned and made Strike rewards more plentiful and predictable. Crucible map rotations were also updated.

Cryptarch

• Legendary (purple) engrams will always produce a Legendary-quality item or higher
  • Note: Legendary engrams that exist in your inventory will change to Rare quality items when the patch is applied. However, decoding these engrams will still produce the same results as before
• Rare (blue) engrams will always produce a Rare quality item or higher
  • Chance for Legendary gear increased
• Materials: Ascendant Shards and Ascendant Energy promoted to Legendary quality (from Rare quality)

Rewards

• Rare (Blue) and Legendary (Purple) Engram drops added to the potential rewards for:
  • Vanguard: Tiger Strike Playlist
  • Daily Heroic Missions (first time per day)
  • Weekly Heroic Missions (first time per week)
• Known issues
  • When selecting a higher difficulty for daily missions, XP Bonus not show in the reward display
  • You will still get the XP bonus, you just won't see it in the UI

Crucible

• Reduced time limit on Bastion and First Light in Control and Clash from 15 to 12 minutes, bringing them in line with non-vehicle maps in those playlists
• Lowered weighting on Bastion and First Light in Control and Clash so they appear less often in those playlists
