Destiny 2 Hotfix 3.3.0.2 is interesting because the devs have finally fixed the issues that plagued the Radiant Dance Machines and Worm God Caress Exotic armor pieces. Thus, they re-enabled them in all activities in the latest update.
For those who do not know, the Radiant Dance Machines was previously disabled because of the almost infinite dodge it provides, especially when paired with certain mods.
Aside from that, the devs have added some improvements and bug fixes to certain armor and weapon traits. For instance, the Precious Scar’s exotic perk, Kintsugi, should provide bursts of healing on enemy kills using weapons with a damage type matching your subclass energy. It turns out that this perk hasn’t worked as intended previously, which is now fixed.
In addition, the Explosive Light weapon trait effect on rocket launchers has been improved by increasing its bonus damage when picking up Orbs of Power by 25%.
The devs have also implemented balance changes to the Shoot to Loot weapon perk. Its cooldown has been increased to four seconds. This is just a way to prevent activating its auto-reload mechanic when shooting an ammo brick that cannot be picked up.
