Hello,
I am reaching out for help because I am stuck in a loop with the WEASEL error code right at the title screen / character selection screen. This issue started occurring after the latest update and after attempting to link my account to Steam before switching back to Epic Games.
Here is the exhaustive list of all the infrastructure checks and troubleshooting steps I have already performed (ruling out any client-side issues completely):
1. Network & Router Status (Verified)
NAT Type: Strictly OPEN (STUN test validated in-game).
UPnP: Enabled and functional. The game is correctly routed on port 3097 (both internal and external).
Hardware: Hard rebooted both the PC and the internet router.
Windows Network Config: Flushed DNS (ipconfig /flushdns), reset network protocols (netsh winsock reset), and switched to Google DNS (8.8.8.8 / 8.8.4.4).
2. PC Environment & Files (Clean Install)
Reinstallation: Completely uninstalled and cleanly reinstalled both the Epic Games Launcher and the entire 100 GB Destiny 2 game files.
Local Cache: Fully purged Epic Games cache folders (%localappdata%) and local Bungie configuration/CVARS files (%appdata%/Bungie).
Security: Windows Firewall explicitly allows Destiny 2 (on both Public and Private networks). No third-party antivirus is active.
3. Account Testing (The Critical Point)
Third-party Apps: Disconnected/closed DIM, the official Companion app, and all other third-party APIs.
Cross-Save Check: Logged into Bungie.net using my Epic Games credentials to force a refresh of the authentication tokens.
Ultimate Secondary Account Test: I created a brand new, secondary Epic Games account (completely fresh, with no clan history or Cross-Save links) and the WEASEL code still triggers in exactly the same way.
The fact that a completely clean secondary account suffers the exact same fate—despite a perfect network and a fresh game installation—proves this is either a major authorization conflict on the Epic Online Services / Bungie backend gateway, or an automatic IP soft-ban triggered by your security systems due to the repeated disconnections over the last few days.
Could you please check my profile status or manually reset/refresh my account's authentication tokens?
Thank you in advance for your assistance.
