What did Bungie say happened?
Under the Exotic weapons section, Bungie wrote: “Fixed an issue where this weapon had received an unintended 20% damage nerf.” The 20% figure describes the unintended reduction reported in those notes, not the weapon’s current damage or tuning.
Was the issue fixed?
Yes. The patch-note entry says the issue was fixed in Update 7.0.0.1. Bungie’s notes do not explain how the nerf occurred, so they do not establish a technical cause or an intended balance change.
