Destiny 2 Resolves Reputation Issue, Announces 'Bonus Weeks' for All Player Classes

Bungie has resolved a reputation bug in Destiny 2 that had been providing disproportionate boosts to Titans and Hunters compared to Warlocks in core activities. Moving forward, all classes will now receive the same reputation gains from Crucible, Vanguard Ops, and Gambit. While some players are disappointed that the accidental boosts have been fixed, many are anticipating the introduction of "bonus weeks" that will offer faster rewards across all player classes.

Bungie has announced that the reputation bug affecting players during Destiny 2's Echoes: Act 1 has been resolved. Additionally, the studio is planning to introduce "reputation bonus weeks" for all player classes moving forward.

Previously, the bug had incorrectly provided Titans and Hunters with significant reputation boosts in Destiny 2's core activities, while Warlocks were experiencing normal and intended reputation gains. This disparity left Warlocks feeling frustrated, as they were unable to earn rewards as quickly as the other two classes. Just one week after the launch of Destiny 2: The Final Shape, Bungie released Episode: Echoes as a continuation of the game's ongoing story. The new content, which includes new story missions, weapons, gear, and Exotics, has now been updated to ensure a fair and balanced reputation system across all Guardians.

The Destiny 2 Team Twitter account confirmed on July 9th that the reputation boost bug, which had been providing disproportionate gains to Titans and Hunters compared to Warlocks, has been resolved with the latest weekly reset. Moving forward, all three classes will now receive the same amount of reputation from core activities in Crucible, Vanguard Ops, and Gambit. Additionally, Bungie is planning "reputation bonus weeks" for all core activities as compensation, granting reputation boosts for all classes, though the studio did not provide a specific timeline for when these boosts will be implemented, instructing players to stay tuned for future announcements.

Destiny 2 to Offer Reputation Bonus Weeks as Remedy for Class Disparity Bug

While some Destiny 2 players are disappointed that Bungie has resolved the accidental reputation boosts, and believe the increases should have been made permanent for all classes, many in the community are anticipating the upcoming "reputation bonus weeks" that will be implemented as compensation. These reputation boosts are expected to help players earn rewards more quickly from high-level activities like Grandmaster Nightfalls, providing a welcome boost across all classes after the resolution of the previous bug that had disproportionately benefited Titans and Hunters.

The next installment of Destiny 2's ongoing narrative, Episode: Echoes Act 2, is scheduled for release on Tuesday, July 16th. While details are still limited, it's expected that this update will include additional bug fixes, alongside the weekly story missions and new content for players to engage with. As for the previously announced "reputation bonus weeks," Bungie has not yet provided a specific timeline, but has indicated that these reputation boosts could potentially be implemented during the Echoes Act 2 or Act 3 timeframe. The studio has promised to share more concrete details with the community once their plans have been finalized.
