Last night Bungie rolled out their latest patch for Destiny due to the upcoming 'House of Wolves' DLC. But not only that it also added in new events and chests. With the new patch released it didn't take long for Destiny players to find the exploit (Glitch) and apparently there will be a hot fix coming May 19th to support the 'House of Wolves' DLC which is released the same day. Maybe the exploit will be patched by then, as it wasn't included in the patch notes Bungie released of the 1.2.0.1 hot fix. The Queen's Emissary Bounties involve a new loot system : you have to eradicate the target you are assigned and then find the chest within a certain amount of time. Also the chest can spawn in multiple different places around the event area. The exploit happens when players find the chest and when they open the chest players can receive engrams, planetary materials and also a treasure key for the prison of elders all they have to do is race to the next area turn back around to where the first chest was and collect the second lot of loot. Simple isn't it. It's basically a duplication glitch. So players getting twice the amount and I'm sure they are enjoying it. But the glitch will only work as long as you get back within the timer that you have. Here is link to the video of some Destiny players using the exploit : https://www.youtube.com/watch?t=79&v=h4V77HgxVCc Below are the patch notes which were released by Bungie yesterday.
