I’m not sure if it was intentional but the Crucible is now significantly harder and drops way more echoes now. On top of that I noticed in a few runs yesterday, after the patch, that more than half of the upgrades I got were having no effect at all. For example I got the upgrade that infuses your weapon with lightning and it didn’t do anything even though I had no other infusions at all.
You might wanna take another look at the patch but love the game overall!
