6.12 Patch Notes

Annihilus Legacy 6.12 Changelog:


General:

• An optional "Extreme" difficulty has been added for the Omega Weapon boss fight. This difficulty can be activated by cubing a Draconic Emblem charm with the "Heart of the Omega Weapon", and then cubing the Heart as you normally would at the end of the Crucible. Defeating Omega Weapon in Extreme difficulty will reward you with a Dark Matter, which can be cubed with a piece of equipment obtained from Omega Weapon to evolve it.
