Ammo Economy
The goal of these changes is tocreate a more predictable and equal patternfor how Special and Heavy ammo is distributed among all players.
Primeval Tuning
Bungie wanted thePrimeval Boss fight to feel bigger and longer. They never believed that the current fight lasted long enough and wanted it to be about more than just burning through the boss’s health without the enemy team getting a chance to set up a counter-attack. They hope these changes will achieve this.
These changes will lead to faster Mote gathering times, however, the Primeval fight is now longer. Players canexpect the matches to remain the same lengthnow.

Invaders currently can decide the game for their team. Bungie is making changes to still allow invaders todelay the other team and turn the tides, but they willno longer be able to decide the outcomesimply because they are skilled.
Rewards
Some changes are coming to rewards and Gambit is gettingcomprehensive engram focusingoptions, just as Trials of Osiris has.
So there you have it, those are all of the changes coming to Gambit in Destiny 2; The Witch Queen. It is clear that Bungie has heard the cries of the community and has placed an entirely reworked Gambit into their laps, with promises to watch it closely and tweak it as needed.
