Marathon Update 1.1.9.5 Adjusts Vault Breaker Rewards and Solo Scaling
Update 1.1.9.5 for Marathon recalibrates the Vault Breaker event with reduced armory stock limits, increased solo currency gains, and lower monitor scan XP. The patch also introduces the Sponsored Night Marsh weekend and fixes several weapon description and profile stat bugs.
Bungie has released update 1.1.9.5 for Marathon, bringing notable adjustments to the ongoing Vault Breaker event alongside general bug fixes. Solo players will find it easier to earn event currency, while armory restock quantities have been scaled back across the board.
Vault Breaker Event and Economy Adjustments
Solo players now receive 50 percent more Tier 1 and Tier 2 event currency from Vault Breaker. Monitor scan XP has been reduced by 50 percent. A selection of Tier 3 standard contracts that were not intended for completion during the event have been disabled. Additionally, the C.A.R.R.I.C.A.R.R.I. Armory has returned through the end of the Nightfall refresh, and Sponsored Night Marsh goes live on Thursday, October 22.
Armory Stock Reductions
Tier 1 repeatable offers have seen significant stock decreases. Materials Pack 1 and Materials Pack 2 drops are down from five per week to two per week. Cryo Archive Key Template stock drops from three per week to one per week. Deluxe weapon, Deluxe Backpack, and Deluxe Shield Implant offers are reduced from three per week to two per week. Furthermore, Tier 2 Vault Keys 4, 5, and 6 are now restricted to purchase exclusively during the second and third weeks of the event, alongside specific limited offers including DRRVISH, Salt Wages, Apiarist, and the Biotoxic Disinjector with its ammo.
Weapons and Profile Bug Fixes
The Repeater HPR description has been updated to correctly state that the weapon reloads two rounds at a time. In the Codex, an issue with the timing requirements on the Recon Trifecta Mastery challenge has been resolved. Profile stats have also received attention, fixing bugs where Global Exfils appeared mismatched across different seasons and instances where the profile stats page loaded completely blank.
Why this patch matters
Update 1.1.9.5 tightens the economy around Vault Breaker while throwing a bone to solo runners, ensuring event progression demands a bit more long-term planning.
