Bungie Probes Marathon Season 2 Loot Glitch as Week 2 Wealth Matches Season 1 Weeks 11-12

Summary
Week 2 wealth in Marathon Season 2 has already reached levels seen only in weeks 11 and 12 of Season 1, pushing progression too fast and destabilizing the in-game economy.
Bungie said several causes are in play: fixed bugs such as guaranteed gold drops, an early rush of Sponsored Kits, and farming tied to Sponsored Survival and a valuable Complex Control chest.
A broader issue is still unresolved, with higher-rarity loot spreading through the game in ways Bungie said did not appear in internal playtests.
Temporary fixes already include disabling boosted containers and cutting Cradle XP rates, with Bungie planning to reverse those changes later in the season once a longer-term solution is ready.
