Destiny 2's New Nether Activity Faces Healing Bug Challenges
Bungie confirms unintended healing issues in The Nether and plans a patch to address the roguelike mode's balancing concerns.
- The Nether, introduced in Destiny 2's Heresy episode, disables passive health regeneration, requiring players to rely on healing orbs, class abilities, or specific weapons.
- Bungie has acknowledged a bug that renders most healing-centric builds ineffective, contrary to the intended design of the activity.
- A patch to fix the healing issues is expected as early as the week of February 10, though no exact release date has been confirmed.
- Some healing methods, such as the Titan Knockout Aspect, Crimson hand cannon, and Lumina hand cannon, currently bypass the bug and function as intended.
- The Nether's design emphasizes managing health as a resource, but the bug has made solo play particularly challenging compared to Fireteam runs.
