Bungie reveals more Season 19 changes
First things first, Bungie revealed that the new dungeon coming in Season 19 will release onDecember 9, 2022, at 9 AM PDT. Unfortunately, that’s all the team was willing to share surrounding the new dungeon.
ConsideringSeason 19 is set to dropon December 6, this new dungeon will be available for players just three days later which should give them a bit of time to get acclimated to the new seasonal changes.
Next, the Sandbox Team detailed changes coming to various class abilities. The blog post said the goal of Season 19 changes is to “more closely normalize the power of our existing subclasses, giving us a more standard baseline that we can use for future tuning.”
First, Bungie went over the changes made toSolarabilities. In particular, Restoration’s x1 base healing rate reduced from 25 to 20 health per second, Restoration’s x2 base healing rate reduced from 40 to 32.5 health per second, and will No longer stack with Healing Rift’s healing.

Finally,Arcand Stasis are also getting meaningful changes. The changes made to Arc are meant to “lean hard into Striker as the Titan’s grenade-centric class…and for the Storm Grenade to be used to force bunkered players to move when a Storm Grenade was approaching.”
As forStasis, it seems the elemental Aspect isn’t quite where Bungie wants it in terms of power and will receive a handful of buffs and nerfs to compensate for that. Destiny 2 fans looking to read the full adjustments can do sohere, as there are a lot of detailed changes to go over.
