Activities 

Portal

• The reward multiplier in the Portal will now use account max Power instead of equipped Power.

  • Increased time limits for Liminality, Inverted Spire, and Widow's Court.

• Updated modifier icons for scoring, events, and matchmaking to be more distinguishable from standard informational icons.
• Tuned Fireteam Based Matchmaking in 6v6 playlists to speed up matchmaking times and make it less likely that larger fireteams will match against all solo players, and more likely that they will match against at least one smaller fireteam, in the event there are no larger fireteams available.
• Crucible Reward Multiplier is now calculated as a running average for the duration of the activity.
• Reduced the amount of bonus score earned per medal for round-based modes to bring it closer to non-round-based modes.

Completing this challenge will unlock an additional one that provides bonus loot from just the epic raid. The loot from these challenges has bonus Seasonal Power and drops at an upgraded Tier based on the number of active feats.
  • Removed the requirement to complete the “Combined Mastery” Triumph to increase your gear drop tier. Now, all Desert Perpetual gear will now drop at Tier 2 in the standard version and Tier 3 in the epic raid, no matter your current Power level.
