Destiny 2 Hotfix 4.1.5.2 full patch notes: Bonus progress on alternate characters, Solstice fixes and more

Destiny 2 Solstice has been live for quite some time now, and players have been grinding every day for high-stat armor.

The recent rework allows players to tweak their stats down to the last detail, granting anyone access to triple-100 stats. This can be done by earning Kindling through the completion of event challenges.

In the first couple of weeks, players struggled to finish the armor upgrades on all three characters due to the amount of grind this year. They needed to complete over 25 event challenges on all three characters. However, it seems that Bungie has put that struggle to rest with the newest Hotfix.

To summarize, progress accelerators have been enabled among the players, granting double and triple progression in the second the third character.

Destiny 2 Hotfix 4.1.5.2 fixes Solstice issues and progressions (August 2)

Aside from earning Kindlings through various means within event challenges, players can also use an exploit to gain high-stat armor on their alternate accounts.

Any Guardian with a fully upgraded character needs to switch on one of their alts, pick up Solstice armor from Eva, transfer it to the upgraded character and upgrade that piece via Silver Ash.

Since there has been no mention of this exploit in the recent Hotfix, it seems players can still utilize this to their advantage, with Solstice leaving in six days.
