Bungie Tweaks Vault Of Glass Final Encounter To Increase Difficulty
Bungie has just deployed a small patch for Destiny that fixes some “kicked to orbit” problems. It also tweaks the final boss in the Vault of Glass raid, Atheon, to make him a bit more challenging.
The developer says it has fixed two things related to this last encounter. Atheon can no longer be knocked off his platform. Bungie also fixed him so that he’ll randomly teleport three players “through the timestream.”
That sounds ominous. You can read the details on the update on Bungie’s website. Unfortunately, this update does not address the changes to exotic weapons (like the overnerfed Vex Mythoclast) that Bungie says it will be fixing.
