A few days ago, The Division 2 dropped a massive expansion called Warlord of The New York, and to nobody's surprise it unintentionally also broke a couple of things. Ubisoft is now back with the latest update that fixes most of these issues. The update went live today at 3 a.m. EST and is heavily focused on bugs. The update also made some loot adjustment changes in the dark zone.
The latest patch fixes the “IWI Negev bug” that caused 50 percent more damage. The interactable echo bug is also fixed and Aaron Keener will not behave “odd” when affected by an EMP. Server crashing issues have also been addressed. You can read about all the bug fixes and loot changes below or on the official site.

Balance adjustments:
We will be adjusting the loot quality in the Dark Zone with tomorrow's maintenance. When we made changes to the loot quality internally before Warlords of New York launched, we wanted to adjust heroic difficulty loot for missions.
When doing so the loot quality in the DZ also was changed, as the difficulty reflects heroic level missions.
But the Dark Zone loot quality had already been adjusted up before, which meant it double dipped with the change and therefore is currently higher than we intended it to be.
With the change tomorrow, loot quality and the number of god-rolls in the Dark Zone will be reduced and it will be on par with challenging-level missions’ difficulty.
