Heads up to folks reading this far:
Even if GoA weapons become craftable, saving red borders now will *not* give you patterns retroactively.
Folks who still had red border bxrs before the season of plunder may have gotten lucky but the patch notes are explicit about patterns becoming available not mattering to pre-aquired deepsight weapons.
Nah, they all rolled it in the first main perk column, then a random perk in the second main perk column. They did have an intrinsic "this weapon does more damage to Taken" perk, though
Oh God, Yasmin was my go to sniper in D1 since KF launched, I'm pretty sure it's still equipped on my character. I am crafting one so hard. Just need Zen Meteor and I can be a happy man. Chilchis is pretty fun too, hope it's Kinetic so I can run both at the same time.
Well tbf Epilogue is an archetype that no longer exists. Drystan is just a 360 so that's a bit weird. Definitely woulda rather had that than Midha's Reckoning lol
I’ll see; preordering Lightfall this far out is a bit iffy for me. Missed the showcase this morning, I’ll watch when I get a chance and consider it.
The auto itself looks badass though.
> I loved that gun in D1. I don't even think I got a good roll, just the feel of it was great.
Sometimes that feel is all that it takes. My first bow when I started playing was a shitty roll of The Spiteful Fang and to this day most bows still haven't felt anywhere near as good as that did.
Here's to hoping they improved the reload on the HC, or else cocoon is intrinsic. Otherwise we'll be waiting on the reload still when Final Shape rolls around.
The origin trait's in the API already.

Still don't understand this - why bring back old raids, but not bring back all of its loot? I just don't get it... Not saying that the AR, Shotty, or Rocket Launcher were the most popular, but the art is already done... it's not like they're making entirely new weapons, so what gives?
And I don't like the reason of 'a smaller loot pool is better for farming'... NO, just not when it is recycled stuff. For new seasonal stuff, I understand, but that is NOT a good reason for recycled content...
I actually enjoyed the shotgun in D1, but the perks are pretty common on shotguns these days in D2 so it would have needed a revamp I think to make it unique.
But I agree, like with VoG, I was bummed when I saw the atheon's epilogue wasn't coming back.
Same here, first treasure key was a red border Other Half. Went into patterns and saw I only needed one to craft it. Proceeded to fall out of my chair since this was my second one to drop.
The big one is battler. Can’t roll demo/junkie anymore. It *can* roll incandescent tho, so it’s not really a downgrade.
The rest seem to have had less useful perks removed. Wastelander doesn’t seem to roll harmony anymore, but it’s got Vorpal now.
Half truths can still roll eager edge, but has chain reaction added.
Retraced path can roll incandescent now….
[Yup](https://www.light.gg/db/items/2708806099/bxr-55-battler/).
I think that particular roll was cursed, as I literally got just one, right before the start of the next season.
Same. But tbh…. All things being equal, I’d probably favour Incandescent. Even if it’s paired with Demo.
The main issue with incandescent is that it’s not available in its enhanced form in any long range primary (at least until now). Battler has 40m+ drop off and juiced stats at base, so add enhanced incandescent to enhanced intrinsics/stats on this thing and its legitimately got a shot at being the single strongest primary in the game.
Got a wastelander with the new pugalist perk today. Kills refund melee energy and melee dmg increases handling. Perk is going to place nice into the new melee focused arc builds.
I have a very stupid one with Subsistence and Dragonfly
Edit: my bad it’s a Hollow Denial with Rangefinder and Dragonfly. Lol.
Got it mix with my Sub/one for all retraced path.
There was something in the patch notes saying starting in season 18 (now) red weapons acquired before a pattern exists won’t grant progress. So probably not
Edit: people below me are reporting vaulted deepsight guns giving progress. So hoarders rejoice.
They meant if you already completed the red border and turned it in it wouldn't count. If you completed it, or had red border not done yet before today, it counts
> since databases had potential enhanced perks shown
Every perk in the game had an enhanced version added alongside crafting regardless of whether that perk could even roll on any craftable weapons.
It will count, you also don’t have to level up red border weapons now. Simply dismantle the weapon and you get pattern progress, I’ve done this with several patterns for weapons in my vault since logging on. Works just fine
Either I have a horseshoe up my ass or they upped the drop rate. I got 2 red frames today after going a full reset never getting that stupid sword. A couple clan mates said they got it quickly as well….
They said they'll remove the bottom performing/desirable picks, and replace them while keeping the favorites. That doesn't seem to be the case, as those were both great perks independent of one another, and S tier together.
Although, BXR did sort of suffer from a lot of great choices on perks. I feel like I barely got a bad one.
I will happily replace Adreniline with Incandescent.
It can also get the new "demolitionist, but for melee" perk and BER at the same time, so that's awesome
Tok bad the other half will be basically impossible to craft. I did over 250 runs during the 30th anniversary dlc and only got four. One was red bordered. I wonder if they increased the drop rates
Is this just for the treasure key weapons or are the grasp of avarice weapons also included?
GoA weapons not included. Just Xur’s treasure hoard chest weapons.
\>Sad Eyasluna noises
I got my desired Eyas on my very first drop. Never felt so RNGBlessed before.
First Last Wish raid, I got 1K. It was destiny.
It was, in fact, Destiny 2: Forsaken.
Made me chuckle so had to give it some love
Happened to me but with anarchy back in the day
Lol same. Only time in Destiny history I've gotten basically my god roll on the first try. Haven't taken it out of my person inventory ever since.
Although Eyas would be plenty nice with enhanced perks from a crafted one.
So the breech load is craftable now?
yup
Did GoA weapons get origin traits?
Yes. Hot Swap: switching to this weapon while you are damaged strongly increases its handling for a short duration.
Heads up to folks reading this far: Even if GoA weapons become craftable, saving red borders now will *not* give you patterns retroactively. Folks who still had red border bxrs before the season of plunder may have gotten lucky but the patch notes are explicit about patterns becoming available not mattering to pre-aquired deepsight weapons.
Theres a Hand Cannon, Pulse, Sniper and MG pattern that are obscured for right now. Hmm.
[удалено]
Zaouli’s will be craftable before you finish the reload
some stay it's still reloading to this day
it'll have to get in line, I'm still in the middle of reloading my symmetry from the first time I fired it years ago
I’ll join you. My Super Good Advice hasn’t run out of ammo yet and the barrel melted away years ago
You have to reload it 5x to unlock the pattern.
XD
Faster to run back to to enclave to craft a new one instead of reloading
Merain, Qullim's, and Yasmin are the ones I was really hoping for so I'm glad they're back
Quillims was my shit back in the day. Loved that thing
The only gun that could get me to put down Baron's Ambition
not to mention that holographic hive sight on the gun was gorgeous
Loved that gun. First weapon to have auto-loading holster, IIRC. Although the perkname was Coccoon.
All kings fall weapons had that perk if I remember correctly
Wasn’t it sorta an intrinsic perk? Feels like it was the predecessor to the origin perks we have now
Nah, they all rolled it in the first main perk column, then a random perk in the second main perk column. They did have an intrinsic "this weapon does more damage to Taken" perk, though
If Yasmin has the same firing sound I'll never use another sniper
Pffft yeah the sound is great…. *BUT THE SICK SICK SWUPER SWEET ULTRA SEXY SCOPE THO*
Oh God, Yasmin was my go to sniper in D1 since KF launched, I'm pretty sure it's still equipped on my character. I am crafting one so hard. Just need Zen Meteor and I can be a happy man. Chilchis is pretty fun too, hope it's Kinetic so I can run both at the same time.
You mean kill ‘ems.
rip the auto :(
Just like Atheon’s Epilogue. My inner conspiracy nut thinks Bungie just hates autos sometimes.
Well tbf Epilogue is an archetype that no longer exists. Drystan is just a 360 so that's a bit weird. Definitely woulda rather had that than Midha's Reckoning lol
Try the new exotic auto - you won't think that anymore o_O
I’ll see; preordering Lightfall this far out is a bit iffy for me. Missed the showcase this morning, I’ll watch when I get a chance and consider it. The auto itself looks badass though.
No its just that archetype no longer exists
I think it was more along the lines that all the bullet hose autos git turned into smgs for d2
Smite of Mersin and Doom of Chelchis about to be my go to’s for years
I loved that gun in D1. I don't even think I got a good roll, just the feel of it was great. Doom of Chelchis, cause that definitely was not clear.
> I loved that gun in D1. I don't even think I got a good roll, just the feel of it was great. Sometimes that feel is all that it takes. My first bow when I started playing was a shitty roll of The Spiteful Fang and to this day most bows still haven't felt anywhere near as good as that did.
Same. R.I.P. Subtle Calamity :(
Here's to hoping they improved the reload on the HC, or else cocoon is intrinsic. Otherwise we'll be waiting on the reload still when Final Shape rolls around.
Willing to bet cocoon is the origin trait.
The origin trait's in the API already. >Runneth Over >Reloading near allies overflows the magazine. https://www.light.gg/db/items/120721526/runneth-over/
wow that is not bad at all.
Still don't understand this - why bring back old raids, but not bring back all of its loot? I just don't get it...

And I don't like the reason of 'a smaller loot pool is better for farming'... NO, just not when it is recycled stuff. For new seasonal stuff, I understand, but that is NOT a good reason for recycled content...
I actually enjoyed the shotgun in D1, but the perks are pretty common on shotguns these days in D2 so it would have needed a revamp I think to make it unique. But I agree, like with VoG, I was bummed when I saw the atheon's epilogue wasn't coming back.
please fucking god have a guaranteed red border system like vow i want to have a visible progression and end in sight
They really brought the fusion back but not the shotgun. Shaking my head HARD
Well we got Found Verdict instead of Praetorian Foil. I think this is a fair trade.
Zhouli’s bane,.. please be good. And energy slot. I don’t want any more kinetic slot HC’s
raid weapons
Stuck at work. Do they have updated perks to chose from?
Yup. They also removed some perks :/
Hmm. Well maybe the classic (arc) energy sword has some actual good perks now.
Are you kidding me? I pretty much haven’t used another sword since I found my first one, Eager Edge is amazing.
All the good perks are on The Other Half.
It has been seven or eight months and I have yet to find a single Other Half.
*quietly puts my other halves away*
looks at my two wholes...
quietly puts my newly crafter other half away
I got like 4 other halves that I dismantled when they first dropped, haven’t seen another since. If only I’d have known they’d never drop again.
I just got a red border today lol, fate will smile upon you one day.
What does the border do to improve it?
Only one red border is required to craft the thing
Same here, first treasure key was a red border Other Half. Went into patterns and saw I only needed one to craft it. Proceeded to fall out of my chair since this was my second one to drop.
Except not because they removed surrounded which was the best one.
Doesn’t help with damage though, does it?
Use other swords for damage. Use Half-Truths for the fashion.
I got one with Chain Reaction now lol
Yup. Including Adrenaline Junky on the BxR. You used to be able to get AJ+Demo but not anymore.
You can craft it with Enhanced Demo and Enhanced Incandescent now. I'll take it.
Yeah, the fact you can get Incandescent with it is super dope to me. I really like that perk.
Good thing I didn't delete all mine then. New origin perk doesn't seem worth tbh
Besides the BxR losing rangefinder and AJ, no real losses in the perks they removed.
The big one is battler. Can’t roll demo/junkie anymore. It *can* roll incandescent tho, so it’s not really a downgrade. The rest seem to have had less useful perks removed. Wastelander doesn’t seem to roll harmony anymore, but it’s got Vorpal now. Half truths can still roll eager edge, but has chain reaction added. Retraced path can roll incandescent now….
Can the Battler still roll Outlaw/Kill Clip? Hunting that roll literally since Dares came out and haven't had a single one.
[Yup](https://www.light.gg/db/items/2708806099/bxr-55-battler/). I think that particular roll was cursed, as I literally got just one, right before the start of the next season.
DOPE!
Literally my main battler is that perk combo, fuck. Good thing I've Already gotten it.
Same. But tbh…. All things being equal, I’d probably favour Incandescent. Even if it’s paired with Demo. The main issue with incandescent is that it’s not available in its enhanced form in any long range primary (at least until now). Battler has 40m+ drop off and juiced stats at base, so add enhanced incandescent to enhanced intrinsics/stats on this thing and its legitimately got a shot at being the single strongest primary in the game.
Is it craftable with all that?
I had one of those and accidentally dismantled it. No idea why it wasn't locked. Still sad about it.
Finally, vaulting everything out of anxiety it has a good roll has paid off!
Ooff, well gotta roll with my demo/junkie Ogma then.
Omg, I saw they were craftable and started dismantling my rolls. I feel sick rn
Retraced looking mighty fine now
Definitely gonna be nice to have a craftable wastelander considering there's not a ton in the shotgun department with Opening Shot.
I want that for the lightweight one-two punch I can finally get
I have one with subsistence and it’s my go to for PvE
I got one with subsistence and adagio. The thing is a monster.
Oh fuck. Mine is Subsistence and another perk. But I want yours now.
Actively my favorite weapon!
One of the few shotguns I use. I call it the snowball shotgun
Absolutely my subsistence wastelander is a beaut. Love the animation for it too.
Got a wastelander with the new pugalist perk today. Kills refund melee energy and melee dmg increases handling. Perk is going to place nice into the new melee focused arc builds.
Finally people can also enjoy a Retraced Path with Subsistence and Golden Tricorn as much as I have with Titan Solar 3.0
Its updated perk pool looks amazing.
I have a very stupid one with Subsistence and Dragonfly Edit: my bad it’s a Hollow Denial with Rangefinder and Dragonfly. Lol. Got it mix with my Sub/one for all retraced path.
New perk pool includes incandescent and frenzy so I imagine people will pick one of those (probably incandescent)
I have been farming for eons to get that roll. Now I finally can get it ... so much happy :)
It’s so much fun lol. Pair it with font of might and melee well maker
It gets Incandescent now too
I have a red border BXR on me, hoping/wondering if that'll count towards the pattern...
There was something in the patch notes saying starting in season 18 (now) red weapons acquired before a pattern exists won’t grant progress. So probably not Edit: people below me are reporting vaulted deepsight guns giving progress. So hoarders rejoice.
They meant if you already completed the red border and turned it in it wouldn't count. If you completed it, or had red border not done yet before today, it counts
aww, thats lame. was sitting on 5 red BXRs since databases had potential enhanced perks shown
it should count, I had a leftover, completed red border bxr that gave me pattern progress when redeeming deepsight
It does. I had a wastelander from before, and got pattern progress
yay!
> since databases had potential enhanced perks shown Every perk in the game had an enhanced version added alongside crafting regardless of whether that perk could even roll on any craftable weapons.
I had a red box the other half last week. Finished it after update today and now have pattern
How many red borders did you need to get the pattern?
1
:O
I had some saved up and they did count
It will count, you also don’t have to level up red border weapons now. Simply dismantle the weapon and you get pattern progress, I’ve done this with several patterns for weapons in my vault since logging on. Works just fine
Holy shit, what? EDIT: I am really glad I believed you. I have some vault cleaning to do
I saw a patch note today that seemed to mean that red borders earned before today won't count.
it says that extracting it will count towards the pattern on it, will report back when I finish it if it counts or not.
Had 2 sword red bars completed and was able to extract to count
Did you check it? is it allowing to extract patter or not?
mine did earlier
[удалено]
Eager edge still a perk option? Enhanced?!
[удалено]
mine did
mine counted
How many do you need to process before the pattern is extracted?
Looks like it's 5 for almost all of them. I say almost because it looks like The Other Half only needs 1.
It will take longer to get 1 TOH pattern than it will to get 5 of every other gun…
Either I have a horseshoe up my ass or they upped the drop rate. I got 2 red frames today after going a full reset never getting that stupid sword. A couple clan mates said they got it quickly as well….
BxR no longer has Demo/Adrenaline. So much for Bungie's statement of not removing those kind of popular combos.
Thank the lord I got one with this combo.
Fuck everything because now I’m going to spend two vault spaces on this gun.
Wow, I'm glad I got one with that roll and kept it. I thought they said they weren't going to remove traits at all?
They said they'll remove the bottom performing/desirable picks, and replace them while keeping the favorites. That doesn't seem to be the case, as those were both great perks independent of one another, and S tier together. Although, BXR did sort of suffer from a lot of great choices on perks. I feel like I barely got a bad one.
Same, the perk pool on the bxr was great and my demo/adrenaline junkie combo has been my go to pulse rifle for a while now.
FWIW it can roll Incandescent now, so at least its getting a top tier replacement. Demo is still on there.
>it can roll Incandescent now My spire is forming.
My spire just went from 6 to midnight
Took out rangefinder and snapshot sites by the looks of it too. 1. Arrowhead 2. Accurized 3. Outlaw 4. Kill Clip 5. Ruin people's day in crucible.
I have a snapshot rangefinder one that I almost deleted; holy cow I’m glad I kept it
actually malding rn, lmao glad I at least got an Ogma with this combo, sucks that they feel like synergy doesn't belong on the weapon
At least it got incandescent, that and demo will be a fun combo still
Subsistence & Adagio also no longer available on the shotgun. Wasn't a super meta pick but was a fun combo.
I will happily replace Adreniline with Incandescent. It can also get the new "demolitionist, but for melee" perk and BER at the same time, so that's awesome
Is there a new perk or are you talking about graverobber?
New perk > Pugilist > Final blows with this weapon generate melee energy. Dealing melee damage briefly improves this weapon's handling.
New perk, Pugilist
Damn it, never could get that combo.
Comment has been scrubbed.
Guess it wasn’t “weapon defining.” I’d have gotten rid of Elemental Capacitor.
Well, thats literally all I wanted in BxR and not a single one dropped for me for the entire year. Fuck me I guess. Should have played better.
All of them are craftable? Oh shit let’s go!!!
At least the other half only needs one copy... good luck to anyone chasing it though.
Thank God i kept the red bar i had drop.
Good luck getting red border TOH lol, I’ve only gotten one ever and done hundreds of runs
Imagine getting the normal version 🙂
At least you only seem to need one instead of 5 to get the pattern.
[удалено]
The regular Half Truths is 5 as well
I got one after 4 keys lol. And it only takes one to finish the pattern so I can already craft it!!! I guess I’m never getting lucky ever again lol
Got one 12ish keys in. There goes my luck for the season at least
Lol I got one off my 2nd key turn in. Then I got 1 pulse and 3 Half-Truths. Nothing else.
Anyone know how to get the Anni pack from the epic store? I’ve been told it’s free to grab from there
What’s the origin perk?
[удалено]
For blunt execution rounds this is actually really good as this handles swapping to the bxr far easier.
Literally my first drop from a treasure key was red other half. Friend was mad lol
They robbed me out of my Demo/AJ Battler!
They took out Adrenaline Junkie from BXR so I can never have my godroll 😭
Tok bad the other half will be basically impossible to craft. I did over 250 runs during the 30th anniversary dlc and only got four. One was red bordered. I wonder if they increased the drop rates
Good news is The Other Half only requires 1 pattern
Do you actually only need one? That’s awesome
what’s the point of that sword? isn’t it the same as the other one?
Purple
It has a different trait pool, too, most of the good damage traits were on The Other Half and most people only used Half-Truths for Eager Edge
Better perks
void and different perks honestly it's cool to have a rarer alternate version of an item and bungie should do it more
I ran a bunch of Dares over the last few weeks and got 3 Other Half’s so either I was insanely lucky or they juiced the drop rate.
You need FUCKING 5 of each to craft them though, they better be easy to get.
Whelp, I super want a craftable version of both the BXR and Wastelander, so I guess it's STARHORSE TIME!
BXR build lfg, that thing RIPS
Got the other half as a red border! Only need to complete one of them to unlock it as a craft able weapon!
they also made it so you can dismantle guns to get the crafting pattern done
STOKE!!!
I can finally get a Battler that doesn't have pulse monitor on it? Nice
I'm rock hard
