Bungie has acted as quick as ever to patch an exploit inDestiny 2’s private Crucible matches and, while the developer hasn’t explicitly said what the issue was, players are pretty sure it has something to do with a specific AFK loot farm.
Gaming YouTuberCheese Foreverfound a hack andshared a videoexplaining how players could make use of it yesterday. It basically just explains how you can set up a private solo crucible match, and if you activate certain settings you can adjust the match length to one minute and the drops you get for winning. The default is just glimmer but if you go to the last slot in your ghost mods you have the choice between prosperity for world drops and red borders, modularity for upgrade modules, prism harvest for prisms, and finally core harvest for cores. This opens up a wide selection of items for you to farm.
One player evenvoiced their upsetover people sharing exploits only for them to be fixed almost immediately: “As much as I appreciate you sharing this knowledge for so long, the fact that you’re sharing it is the reason why it always gets patched. If we could just keep this information to ourselves and pass it around through chat we’d be able to enjoy these things for longer.”
Clamping down on farming and exploits isn’t out of the ordinary for Bungie, the developers have had to fix these problems plenty of times before. When it came toDestiny 2: The Witch Queenthere was an exploit in theShattered Throne dungeon’s notorious AFK farm"The Thrallway" which gave out outrageous amounts of XP, Glimmer, and engrams to players, so it had to get patched pretty quickly.
