On Feb. 27, 2023, Bungie rolled out its latest round of patch notes for Destiny 2 in the 7.0.0.1. As always, there were plenty of bugs and small quality-of-life issues that were resolved, but there were also some notable changes to gameplay mechanics as well.

Even though it’s not necessarily a game-changer, and isn’t something that casual players are likely to notice, one such change comes regarding the way Destiny 2 players go about unlocking Artifact perks. Now, instead of having to hold down a button for one second to unlock an Artifact perk, you’ll simply be able to use a single button press.

Other helpful touches include the ability to stun Champions even when they’re in animation, as well as higher stats for armor pieces that drop in Master difficulty while playing Grasp of Avarice, Duality, and Spire of the Watcher.

This is just a small taste of the changes that are coming alongside the Destiny 2 Update 7.0.0.1, as Bungie is really prepping the game for the coming release of its massive Lightfall release on Feb. 28, 2023.
