After weeks of frustration in the new Gambit mode for Destiny 2: Forsaken, Bungie has revealed how it plans to nerf one of the game’s most powerful weapons, the Sleeper Simulant exotic linear fusion rifle. In this week’s blog post, the team revealed how and when Sleeper will become less powerful, as well as how frequently the Malfeasance boss will spawn in an upcoming update — another source of player frustration.

In an upcoming update — tentatively scheduled to release on Oct. 30 — Bungie will change the ammo values for some heavy weapons specifically for Gambit. When picking up an ammo crate in Gambit, the Sleeper Simulant will now only receive two shots instead of four. Swords in Gambit will also get 12 ammo per brick in the update, instead of only six.
