"Cayde-6 took the Cryptarch aside and showed him a sack of doorknobs. He decoded that mystery pretty quickly," reads Bungie's most prominent note. Following the 1.0.2 patch the formerly stingy decoder will "always produce Legendary or better quality items, including Materials or Exotics" from matching engrams, while Rare engrams are guaranteed to produce "Rare or better quality" items and now feature an increased chance of spawning elusive Legendary quality items.
Additionally, Ascendant materials have been upgraded to Legendary status "to closer associate them with the gear they are used to upgrade." Bungie warns players, however, that all Legendary engrams in your inventory once the patch goes live will be downgraded to Rares.
