In particular, all glimmer seems to be gone for affected players, while other materials are seeing random reductions. Bungie has since taken the game offline to test a fix for the problem as the development crew tries to return the missing materials to player inventories.
While a new update on the progress is expected shortly, we don’t have an ETA on when the hotfix will actually go live.
Update 2.7.1. was intended to change how often randomized dialog is played, improve notification performance and reduce frame rate drops in specific areas, as well as fixed several improper damage effects.
A list of the biggest changes can be found below. For the latest updates direct from Bungie on the downtime, head over to the Twitter help page here.
