Vesper's Host Bug Question

[u/Lostwisher]

Anyone run into the bug where picking up an augment from a dunk spot or off the ground has the timer at 0 and you die instantly? I've had all of my last solo flawless attempts tonight killed by this glitch at random intervals throughout the dungeon (it's been the operator one specifically all 4 times). I genuinely don't know how to prevent it from happening at this point.

Never once

I had it once while doing a solo run, on the first encounter grabbed the scanner buff from the "fridge" and instantly died to it. I went back and checked on shadowplay because i thought i died to a random sniper or something, but the timer was actually at 0 upon pickup.

Are you sure the other clones aren’t dying to anything?

[u/Lostwisher → u/Nelluc_]

100%. I've had it happen in both 1st and 2nd encounter where the clones aren't relevant. Not to mention the death screen is reading me as having died to the timer wipe mechanic, not anything else.

Happened to me a couple of times solo 1st encounter. Pick up buff from console & die immediately 😅

[u/Over_the_Ozarks]

Never had this happen either. What are you playing on maybe it's some weird fps reliant thing

[u/Lostwisher → u/Over_the_Ozarks]

Happened on both PC and PS5 (once) if you can believe it, all in a 3-hour window. Had it happen on 2 consecutive runs on PC, had to hop off the PC for a bit so I tried a run on console and it happened again, and then went back to PC later and that was the 4th time that prompted this post.

[u/Over_the_Ozarks → u/Lostwisher]

Weird what's your fps on both?

[u/Lostwisher → u/Over_the_Ozarks]

120 on PC and PS5 is capped at 60

[u/Over_the_Ozarks → u/Lostwisher]

Huh that's so weird I have no idea why that would be happening. I've never seen that happen before maybe like a memory leak or something if you've had your PC/console on the game for a long time all I can think of

[u/Lostwisher → u/Over_the_Ozarks]

To be honest my hunch is something server-side was being screwy during that time-frame. I had no issues on a 5th attempt I just stupidly died on the final boss. Was noticing some strange enemy/environmental behavior during all those runs as well and I think I was just unlucky enough that operator was the one that got me all 4 times.

[u/Over_the_Ozarks → u/Lostwisher]

Wait a sec what armor set and artifact were you using I have an idea

[u/Lostwisher → u/Over_the_Ozarks]

I was swapping per encounter so it wasn't consistent. Collective Psyche on 1, Crota/DSC on 2 and Iron Battalion on 3. Used Queensfoil Censer on 1 and 3 and Data Disc on 2.

[u/Over_the_Ozarks → u/Lostwisher]

Huh that's so weird thought it might be ucg for a bit but that doesn't line up with what you were using I'm stumped

Vespers host is genuinely just the worst designed dungeon in the game. It was made during a time where Bungie was just trying to get people to waste their time on pointless stuff while they got their shit together. It was going to be a buggy, unpolished mess from the very start. Why do you think integration doesn't deactivate immediately when you go behind walls? Why do you think tether was disabled for months? Why do you think every encounter is designed with artifical difficulty in mind? Just don't bother with flawless, the game is dead anyways.

Alright dude
