Destiny 2's servers have been struggling lately, with Bungie having to take down the game to resolve various issues. However, things don't seem to have subsided completely, as players are still encountering errors within purchases, missing silver, and more. With the new Raid Root of Nightmares being just a day away, the company is pulling out all the stops to ensure a smooth launch day.
Additionally, the daily reset of March 9 will see the implementation of a hotfix. Many concurrent issues since the Lightfall launch are expected to be addressed here, including invisible players, missing items from loadouts, disabled mods, and more.
Typically, players will be taken out of the servers 15 minutes before the reset, as the downtime is expected to carry on longer than the usual daily reset. Destiny 2's server time for the offline status has been announced to begin at 8:45 am PST and will continue for more than two hours until 11:00 am PST.
