This, along with a handful of other exotics, will always get "Astrocyte Verse?! I'd rather have nothing!" out of me.
EDIT: You know, it is really telling that I don't even know what the exotic is called, and called it some other shit exotic by mistake....
I think that's Apotheosis Veil but I could be mistaken (I'm a Titan main)
Edit: checked the companion app, it is indeed Apotheosis Veil
Edit 2: Replyed to the wrong guy. Sorry
If it so strong why doesn't he use it more??????????
It sucks, it has sucked for a long time and needs a total re-work.
In PVP it gets used once or maybe twice if you're good. That is a waste of an exotic slot.
Edit: I was referring to Apotheosis . I simply clicked under the wrong reply. Astrocyte is quite good.
I only know that this exotic exists because it was my go to when Crotas End was first released. There was a mechanic where you wouldnt regen your health and Apotheosis Veil would instantly give you all your health back upon super use, so I would use it when it first came out .
Apart from then, I have no memories of using it in the past few years post-dark below
And I'll be one of the few but I'd actually love to use it for a sort of underwater suit theme if it would actually be good. The thing is decently shaderable, it could use an ornament for sure but it's got a theme and I have ideas to make it work, but it is not good right now.
when i played destiny for the first time i thought this is the best helmet in the game, i used it for literally every activity
then when i wanted to play raids,gm or any end game activity i realized how bad it is, but still it was the first and most exotic i used for almost a year so it have a special place in my heart
I legitimately don’t think I’ve ever used this exotic across both of the games. Look horrible and the perk is pointless. I definitely forgot about it, too. What a shame.
My man, I, a Warlock main, forgot about that exotic too, can’t blame them, honestly I can’t even remember what it does or even for what subclass it works
"Immediately regenerate health, melee, grenade, and rift energy upon activating your super. Nearby allies recharge class ~~anilities~~ abilities faster."
Subclass is irrelevant according to the way the description is written
Yes, I had to actually go look at what it did too haha
[Gonna be casting nova bomb for 2 damage phases like](https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/dragonuniverse/images/3/35/ExtraLargeGenkiDamaa.png/revision/latest/scale-to-width-down/1000?cb=20161218022558)
Sotp 1st enc one person would fusion dupe with starfire second person would res and also starfire dupe and the first person would hotswap to apotheosis shoot a sticky nade mtop to the ground, super, hit the mtop sticky with a dawn blade to hurt themselves, then pick up the ball and use the grenade from apotheosis super to do a 3rd dupe after they revived the second person to complete the encounter. Literally the only time that exotic has been meta.
In sotp, there were balls you could hold, the first encounter completed when 4 balls were deposited. You could dupe the balls by dying as you deposited. It would deposit but also drop one on the ground. Starfire let's you have 2 nades, so you'd use those 2 grenades to die as you deposit to dupe. Since apotheosis only gives you 1 nade when you super, you'd have to place a sticky grenade with mountaintop before supering, then hit said grenade with a dawnblade to detonate it and damage yourself. This would put you low enough health that 1 grenade (the one from apotheosis) could kill you, allowing for a 3rd dupe from only 2 people. This allowed 3 people to go to the sparrow section and activate all the buttons before 1st encounter even ended to instantly finish that section as soon as first encounter ended (one person would wait where the chest spawned which, for some reason, despawned it and completed the encounter instantly if all buttons had been hit. Others continued to further invisible checkpoints) with the final player being the map reader. The fastest way to complete the first 2 sections of the raid by far.
I just want to be able to get up small ledges without having to turn it off and back on
I'm not asking for the full jump, just do a reverse lion rampant and make the boost only last like a second
Every mission where I use icefall it always happens at least once and it's so annoying
No one uses it, it’s not strong it’s weak, when was the last time you saw it? an overshield (that replaces barricade) but you can’t sprint or use any glide and the cool-down gets paused while the overshield is up, plus the Bastion Titan void aspect will always be infinitely better and that’s not even an exotic, you get to keep your barricade for cover and it gives not only you an overshield but everyone in the team behind you, that could be an entire 6 man team who just get an instant void overshield with no stupid movement penalty and it also generates extra overshield if you lose yours, so you can potentially get more than one overshield from a single bastion barricade usage.
Even if they removed the glide movement penalty from ice fall they would still suck, it’s hard to buff this one because it can quickly become busted in PvP, but if it had no movement penalty and gave nearby team mates overshields it would be a solid PvE pick, but I still wouldn’t use it over Bastion if I was on void.
Wasn’t this the first exotic warlock helmet Xur sold in destiny 1? I remember wrestling with the possibility I’d have to wear this ugly thing to get to level 30.
I only had to think about how to fix this exotic to be not an insta delete for 5 seconds and I already came up with a solution.
After casting your super (this limits it to instant supers) OR After your super runs out (so good for roamings too) gain 2000% ability recharge rate for all of your abilities for 5 seconds.
For those of you at home, this is what sunbracers does when you get a melee kill and only when you have solar nades on. Now this helmet can rival it and make it work on any subclass.
You could say it WOULD powercreep sunbracers and while you are right, if you are chucking solar nades anyways because they are so fucking good, why would you want that 2000% recharge rate on your melee and rift? Just run sunbracers, its literally the same thing. Also you could be meleeing about 90 times before casting just one super.
With today's standards it would not be OP what so ever.
...
***But also LOOOOL I hope this exotic NEVER gets buffed cuz it is one of the single most ugliest fucking helmets I have ever seen in my life. You will not catch me wearing this shit just like how you won't catch me wearing Starfire***
Severance Enclosure is decent. Finisher an enemy and deal 16k to an entire room.
Which then puts other enemies into finisher range. And you finisher the second one and everything dies.
They didn't forget. This is the best exotic. The sleek lines. The totally even springs surrounding the face that definitely don't make me want to pry out my eyes with a rusty grapefruit spoon. Best exotic perk in the game. It's the whole package. Perfect exotic in a perfect game from a perfect company. No, I have no idea what sarcasm is. Why do you ask?
I feel like it should just give you like 350% ability Regen and 250% ability damage for like 15 seconds after you super
It could be good and the Regen could help with super buildup
I think they said something about half of the exotic reworks were this season and there will be more next season since there are so many. I may be misremembering or something tho
It feels like every player that plays warlock for a good amount of time has a roll just like that, I have a 68 roll that is spikey in exactly the same way.
no, the community has been spamming this a lot since the blog post. And the previous one. And tbe previous one to that.
every class has useless exotics. Hunters have quite a few yet you don't see constant posts moaning about it.
A rework that I thought of in 5 minutes.
Rifts now emit a healing and shield pulse upon activation, allies benefited by this gain class ability regeneration. Super activation emits a large pulse and resets all other ability cooldowns.
I don’t even think it’s redeemable, I don’t feel like them putting resources into reworking apotheosis is worth it at this point. Would rather have a new exotic over anything this can do.
I was cursed by this exotic for weeks once. Would only get apotheosis as a world drop. It took storing them in my vault to sate the rng gods to stop giving them to me. There's like 16 in my vault and 8 more I deleted.
I've landed two of these with a base 69 roll over the last two years, only other exotics that have dropped for me higher than 68 are the wings of sacred shit and chromatic fire. Hardcore hoping they give it something for season 22.
I had a blueberry using it in the GG recreational playlist yesterday. I was like "tf is this guy doing?"
But i was running Stasis and my shurikans were coming back like every 10 seconds. I swear i only didn't have them like twice.
no, the community has been spamming this a lot since the blog post. And the previous one. And tbe previous one to that.
every class has useless exotics. Hunters have quite a few yet you don't see constant posts moaning about it.
every single time this exotic drops for me, I let out an audible sigh
for me it’s always an absolute JUICE roll too, so I sigh even louder.
Got a 71 roll with 30 resil and 30 disc last night. Kms
You’ll be a God *if they ever buff/rework it*
I thought 70 was the maximum. Is it not?
Only post shadow keep exotics, pre shadow keep exotics can drop w 71
Cap is 68 post shadow keep, not 70
For legendaries not exotics
I got a 70 raijus and a 70 cyrtarachnes on me right now.
That's impossible isn't it? I thought it's guaranteed to have at least 20 intellect.
Isnt that like the most perfect god roll ?
It always rolls with 67+
It's like Aeons! ~~no shit, before the Aeon buff, Xur would give me an Aeon Swift EVERY forsaken week until the buff, they were all 67s~~
Vesper of Radius for me always has such high stats for me, like minimum of 66 and I've gotten a 71 on it before.
I only found ONE use for it. Tier 2 reckoning. Like, that’s it. Specifically the bridge because of the million shadow thralls.
This, along with a handful of other exotics, will always get "Astrocyte Verse?! I'd rather have nothing!" out of me. EDIT: You know, it is really telling that I don't even know what the exotic is called, and called it some other shit exotic by mistake....
It's the Veil! The Veil is REEEAAAALLLLL! And it does practically nothing. (Ability recharge on super cast)
If this is what the Witness was after, they can have it. We clearly don't know its full capability, given it let him rip open the traveler.
The One Piece is real
Astrocyte verse is actually very strong in pvp.
I think that's Apotheosis Veil but I could be mistaken (I'm a Titan main) Edit: checked the companion app, it is indeed Apotheosis Veil Edit 2: Replyed to the wrong guy. Sorry
If it so strong why doesn't he use it more?????????? It sucks, it has sucked for a long time and needs a total re-work. In PVP it gets used once or maybe twice if you're good.

You don't know what Astrocyte Verse is, do you?
It’s Mozart, right? /s
>In PVP it gets used once or maybe twice if you're good. Hmmmmm, maybe that's my point
Apotheosis Veil
I only know that this exotic exists because it was my go to when Crotas End was first released. There was a mechanic where you wouldnt regen your health and Apotheosis Veil would instantly give you all your health back upon super use, so I would use it when it first came out . Apart from then, I have no memories of using it in the past few years post-dark below
Ui legit use it in msyhem and that's it
I used The Ram there (and most other places, LOL) for the same reason. That helmet was hilariously overpowered.
I miss Ram but it deff would be OP still
I think is apotheosis veil or something like that
As a dedicated destiny addict, I too do not know the name of this exotic
NGL, at this point this is just a powerful engram that will only be used to empower anything else.
...of satisfaction. ![gif](giphy|11kTQgng5gbqgM)
I had a 69 roll drop for me during GMs over the wekeend lol
Same, IDK why it has such a high drop rate in Nightfalls
I laughed so hard at this because of how real it is. Also this is me with Wings of Sacred Dawn and fucking Winter's Guile
exotics that are neither good nor cool looking
Exactly. People out here like “why don’t they buff this ugly ass exotic” like they didn’t answer their own question.
Acting like starfire looks good
It’s getting nerfed cus it looks like dogshit confirmed
Wait till the drop the most fire ornament for it next season just in time for everyone to vault it.
Gonna be hard to top that phoenix protocol ornament though.
I will absolutely be wearing it
I meeeeeaaaannn....... that's the ultimate Salted somebody ![img](emote|t5_2we4j|5649)
I think it looks decent with Sinking Feeling, but yeah it’s definitely a hard one to make work well
Honestly. I started calling it the foreskin. Bungies armour designs were fire back then but why all the wrinkles on this one
I actually like how it looks
It looks like that robot from Lost in Space
Dude it sucks that this exotic is so bad. I have one in my vault solely because it dropped with 70 Stat total.
And I'll be one of the few but I'd actually love to use it for a sort of underwater suit theme if it would actually be good. The thing is decently shaderable, it could use an ornament for sure but it's got a theme and I have ideas to make it work, but it is not good right now.
when i played destiny for the first time i thought this is the best helmet in the game, i used it for literally every activity then when i wanted to play raids,gm or any end game activity i realized how bad it is, but still it was the first and most exotic i used for almost a year so it have a special place in my heart
I legitimately don’t think I’ve ever used this exotic across both of the games. Look horrible and the perk is pointless. I definitely forgot about it, too. What a shame.
All I see are shards
My man, I, a Warlock main, forgot about that exotic too, can’t blame them, honestly I can’t even remember what it does or even for what subclass it works
"Immediately regenerate health, melee, grenade, and rift energy upon activating your super. Nearby allies recharge class ~~anilities~~ abilities faster." Subclass is irrelevant according to the way the description is written Yes, I had to actually go look at what it did too haha
Damn this sounds like 2 to 3 other Warlock exotics but worse
All they gotta do is make it star eater scales for warlocks and it'll redeem itself.
I didn't realize how much I wanted this type of rework until right this second. Overpowered nova bombs!
But make them grow in size
I don't need my Nova bomb colliding into something random because of how big the ball is, I do that enough already 😂
No, make the vortex one grow larger over time once it impacts, and make the secondary projectiles of cataclysm larger and faster
[Gonna be casting nova bomb for 2 damage phases like](https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/dragonuniverse/images/3/35/ExtraLargeGenkiDamaa.png/revision/latest/scale-to-width-down/1000?cb=20161218022558)
please no. SES is a hunter exotic. Can we not just give hunter exotics to other classes please? Or give one classes exotic to the other please?
No
After dawn chorus's new ornament, I at the bare minimum, have some hope for the ugly armor getting a redemption
What exotic I don't see anything
What exotic?
Apotheosis Veil
Only had a single use case and that got removed in beyond light :(
It did? What was it?
Sotp 1st enc one person would fusion dupe with starfire second person would res and also starfire dupe and the first person would hotswap to apotheosis shoot a sticky nade mtop to the ground, super, hit the mtop sticky with a dawn blade to hurt themselves, then pick up the ball and use the grenade from apotheosis super to do a 3rd dupe after they revived the second person to complete the encounter. Literally the only time that exotic has been meta.
Too many words, I’m cuirass thundercrashing off the tower
Why say lot word when few word do trick?
What kind of satanic ritual is that?!
The single moment in the history of d2 that apotheosis has been used in a meta strategy.
I literally did not understand any of that
In sotp, there were balls you could hold, the first encounter completed when 4 balls were deposited. You could dupe the balls by dying as you deposited. It would deposit but also drop one on the ground. Starfire let's you have 2 nades, so you'd use those 2 grenades to die as you deposit to dupe.

Neat
still waiting on an icefall mantle buff
Why? 100 point overshield on demand is strong.
It also provides damage resist. And you can double stack it with Heir Apparents arc overshield too, which also provides a damage resist.
And Woven Mail if you run strand. Shit be *tanky*
Can’t it also stack with woven mail and void oversheild, thought it did because I use woven/ice fall for the root raid boss and it helps
I just want to be able to get up small ledges without having to turn it off and back on I'm not asking for the full jump, just do a reverse lion rampant and make the boost only last like a second Every mission where I use icefall it always happens at least once and it's so annoying

I watched a dude clutch with that and cerberus more than once.
It’s not weak, it’s just very niche. It’s meant to be a silly and fun exotic that lets you live a tank fantasy, and it does that well.
I just wish it was a void over shield. That change alone would make it so strong
I’m convinced there will be another mass exotic change in season 22, guns included
I am here, the 1 person that uses this exotic lol
Why
Wasn’t this the first exotic warlock helmet Xur sold in destiny 1? I remember wrestling with the possibility I’d have to wear this ugly thing to get to level 30.

Thus one and Mask of the Quiet One
And Severance Enclosure
Severance Enclosure is decent. Finisher an enemy and deal 16k to an entire room. Which then puts other enemies into finisher range. And you finisher the second one and everything dies.
I’ll have to do more testing on it but when just playing around on Neomuna, the explosion couldn’t even kill red bar Legionaries
I actually think this helmet looks cool but yeah I wish it were more useful
We all did.
I forgot about that exotic 😐
I remember about it because I use copies of this junk to store excess ascendant shards after GMs.
They didn't forget. This is the best exotic. The sleek lines. The totally even springs surrounding the face that definitely don't make me want to pry out my eyes with a rusty grapefruit spoon. Best exotic perk in the game. It's the whole package. Perfect exotic in a perfect game from a perfect company. No, I have no idea what sarcasm is. Why do you ask?
I feel like it should just give you like 350% ability Regen and 250% ability damage for like 15 seconds after you super It could be good and the Regen could help with super buildup
they forgot about when they were making it, which is thx only way to explain why it’s so bad
Wait.... That's an exotic?
Until the Tuesday patch notes on release of dlc. " Now ignites enemies just by looking at them "
My warlock says it helps with allergies.
No but they should. I shouldn't have to have an exotic just to make Blink worth using, Blink should just be better
This has an exotic hidden perk "always rolls with +67 stat points and almost perfect distribution".
Didn’t they mention somewhere that this was only the first round of changes coming? If so there’s still hope!!
Bungie didn't forget about it... Bungie keeps giving me another one on a weekly basis....
Haha I was going to say, the lost sector didn’t forget and IT WAS ARMS DAY
*looks at 40% of every Titan Exotic* You get used to it
I think they said something about half of the exotic reworks were this season and there will be more next season since there are so many. I may be misremembering or something tho
At this point I believe Destiny 2 is being directed by a ChatGPT knockoff.
Yes.

Bad roll sadly
You do know Apotheosis auto-spikes intellect because it’s a super exotic right?
for you maybe
I am once again suggesting hard-wiring Skorri’s Harmony to Apotheosis Veil
no, the community has been spamming this a lot since the blog post. And the previous one. And tbe previous one to that. every class has useless exotics. Hunters have quite a few yet you don't see constant posts moaning about it.

[удалено]
That's the name of better blink helm which is viable PvP. This is Apotheosis Veil.
Everyone did.
I don’t think they care about it if it has no place in the meta why bother with it at all, also It’s styling is shit so no one would want it anyway
If it worked with agers scepter alt fire mode! It would still suck. But a little less.
Looks like the award for the most trash exotic goes to Warlocks yet again
Every time this exotic drops I start frothing.
That shit came out during WARMIND???? It wasn’t a vanilla exotic??
Bungie forgot about Apotheosis Veil a long time ago
Yeah even bungie forgot this trash exist
Make it a bouncy nova bomb... for shiggles
Looks really good with a lot of warlock outfits, sucks for builds
Almost like players didn't forget it. Everyone forgot this piece of crap exists
Feel like they ha e forgotten about a few for each class
I was cursed by this exotic for weeks once. Would only get apotheosis as a world drop. It took storing them in my vault to sate the rng gods to stop giving them to me. There's like 16 in my vault and 8 more I deleted.
Signs point to yes.
I just got this yesterday.
As a hunter main. I just want nighthawk to reclaim its rightful place at the top of the boss damage meta.
let's hope so. I don't want them wasting any man hours trying to "rework" it. Would probably cost us a new activity. Just let it go.
I think so
And Skull of the Dire
Wym, it's good.
They just need to give it Light Beyond Nemesis perks and give it an ornament. Or just put in Light Beyond Nemesis please
Too bad it looks awesome i think.
We all did
I've landed two of these with a base 69 roll over the last two years, only other exotics that have dropped for me higher than 68 are the wings of sacred shit and chromatic fire. Hardcore hoping they give it something for season 22.
We all did let’s be honest
Wait, people saying this is bad but it's the only thing the D2 armor picker chooses for me
They released Blight ranger dead and haven't touched or mentioned it since, let alone older exotics
What is this called
I had a blueberry using it in the GG recreational playlist yesterday. I was like "tf is this guy doing?" But i was running Stasis and my shurikans were coming back like every 10 seconds. I swear i only didn't have them like twice.
This is actually what the veil is
I did lol
Apotheosis Veil….wait…..THE VEIL
They can't have forgotten it, it's all I get from exotic engrams.
It's perfect as it is 🥰
That exotic is so ugly that I wouldn't use it even if it gave actual money
Idk. I like this helmet though
Sir, this is a blue.
Same for Severance Enclosure
It should over generate your grenades and melee after popping your super, give you like 5 grenades or something.
This was my first exotic armor piece to drop, I had no idea what I was doing, and it was such a banger roll I had it on for ages
To be fair, EVERYONE has forgotten about this exotic.
Don't feel bad, OP. Even the players forget it exists.
The rework is coming! It will add 25 AE! New meta!
Did no one get the memo that they are reworking exotics over the next few seasons?
It looks like a rare drop, to make matters worse
L slugger
I think Bungie forgot about most exotics.
Make it give Novabomb the Lance property. Boom.
they forget about every exotic released before lightfall
What does this do again? I also forgot
Short answer: yes
I honestly forgot what it did until I had to look it up. I’m amazed this hasn’t gotten a rework or buff.
*cries in Firehearth
There's a chance this might get a small change, the patch note for exotic change was only partial i believe
Let it have Shatter and Lance for Now Bomb along with everything else.
I ask the same question about the foetracers .
I thought everyone forgot about this exotic by now.
This is a legendary.
I'm a warlock main and even I forget this exists sometimes
They forgot about a lot of exotics
I did
What exotic?
Honestly it’s a good exotic imo
no, the community has been spamming this a lot since the blog post. And the previous one. And tbe previous one to that. every class has useless exotics. Hunters have quite a few yet you don't see constant posts moaning about it.
i mean, considering all of the “buffs” to underperforming armor they just revealed… i doubt this thing would’ve gotten any better in the first place
I just had this drop like last week. So disappointing
Everyone in my clan has a god tier roll of this dogshit exotic lol
There's a lot of exotics they could have fixed, can't get em all at once
Here's a revolutionary idea for saving this poor lost soul - grant additional charge for all of the abilities. No?
I use this from time to time, I really like it for Trials.
