In an upcoming patch, Bungie is about to make the 50 wave Onslaught mode more rewarding for Destiny 2 players by offering ways to earn additional weapon drops.

The percentage will rise after every wave is completed until the weapon finally drops, with Wave 50 guaranteeing a weapon drop for those who have not yet received one. In addition, Completing wave 50 on
