Bungie has made several changes to Destiny, including a fix to the respawn timers for monster caves across the game world.

Players discovered a loophole for grabbing more loot as they surrounded caves and fired endlessly into them to destroy enemies before they could escape.

Bungie has now fixed the issue, however, as it believes the exploit isn't what Destiny should be about.

"The Hive of the holy Treasure Cave have realised the futility of their endless assault on Skywatch and have retired to lick their wounds and plan their next attack," read the patch notes.

"The social experience of a cave farming run is amazing: the herding to get a team of Guardians all behind the line and firing in the right direction, the rush to grab the loot, the scramble when the panic wave starts, the beckoning glow from inside the cave.

"The speed at which the community organised around this activity was inspiring and humbling to us.

"But shooting at a black hole for hours on end isn't our dream for how Destiny is played. Our hope is that social engagement in public spaces is only one part of the Destiny experience. Expect changes soon which decrease the efficiency of cave farming and correspondingly increase engram drops from completing activities."

Several other changes, including alterations to weapons and loot, are expected in the coming weeks.
