A new update for Bungie’s Marathon is available now, and it’s got some interesting tweaks to weapons along with an extension of a limited-time mode. The Vault Breaker PvE mode has been extended to Aug. 18, allowing for more play time and testing for the eventual full-fledged PvE experience coming in September. Along with that, several guns have had changes to optimize the player experience. The V22 Volt Thrower got a nice damage buff in the update, along with changes to the KKV-9SD. Beyond that, the update mostly includes bug fixes and optimizations. Here’s everything new and different in Marathon today as part of its latest update.

Increased the available stock of some limited offers to reflect this extension. We look forward to continuing to hear your feedback on this experimental PvE mode.

Item Economy Sponsored Kit Boosts – Free Sponsored Kits have now been upgraded: Starting weapon now come with random Enhanced (green) mods. 1 stack of Enhanced (green) Patch Kits. 1 random grenade (smoke, heat, or claymore). Combat Weapons V22 Volt Thrower Damage increased from 12.6 to 14.4. Tracking speed will now slowly decay over 1.2 seconds of a projectile’s lifetime by a maximum of 30 percent. Reduced the amount of time spent at 540rpm before weapon heat starts to spin down by ~20 percent. KKV-9SD Increased base magazine size from 23 to 28. Retuned magazine sizes at every stat value to compensate. Prestige Flechette Drum magazine mod stays the same at 87. Fixed an issue where certain magazine mods were not correctly granting any additional rounds in the magazine. V85 Circuit Breaker Fixed a stability issue relating to the Prestige quality Overlocked Delimiter mod. This mod has now been re-enabled. Zones Fixed an issue where opening the Cryo Hatch repeatedly could grant unintended amounts of faction reputation and Season XP. This action will now provide the intended gains once per match. All actions that had previously had their reputation and XP gains disabled in Cryo Archive have now been re-enabled. General Fixed an issue where players would sometimes not receive Salvage or Schemas when purchasing Rewards Pass items with LUX. Fixed an issue with the Store where some bundle items that should have also been visible in the Catalog section were not displaying correctly. 0The post Marathon patch notes today – Update 1.1.5.2: Vault Breaker extended appeared first on Destructoid.
