Yeah same, it's decent but the recoil animation is the worst. It basically just covers everything you're trying to aim at and it looks hosed up too. Basically the worst kind of behavior for a faster hand cannon where you need to be hitting multiple shots reliably. Oh well, at least it looks cool I guess. I'll be sticking with Old Fashioned until the next DLC.

p.s. calus's elite shader looks fuckin sick on pretty much all the trials weapons

That random block design on top of it is just the worst during recoil. It's a real shame because the stats and perks on it are well above average. The huge range on it doesn't make it feel like a peashooter.

I hope they rework all the 180 hc animations. So much potential for variety, considering they introduced 4 of them.

The Trials HC's sight is pretty darn trackable when firing as fast as you can but the damage is still poo poo either way like why would you bother when it has the lowest TTK of any HC type even if you land all crits.

On Mercury, do the post-campaign "run 3 adventures" quest.

Then run one Heroic Adventure.

You'll unlock "Prophecies" from Vance. There are 10. They require a TON (dozens and dozens of hours) of grinding strikes, events, crucible, nightfall, adventures, etc.

Each prophecy rewards you with a specific gun.

After 5 prophecies you get a quest line to visit Saint 14's grave and get his shotgun

After 10 prophecies you get an emblem and a Ghost

That's pretty unlucky. Cayde's gift was just Witches and regular EDZ crystals, which got completed during the Titan flashpoint and a lap around EDZ.

I took a screencap of the preview for a completed gift. So looks like you'll just have one less opportunity to get an event item.


Unless they are like the verses and you can't pick up another until you finish it. :downs:

I collected it, moved it to Vault in DIM, moved it to character, moved it to Vault, moved it to character, gift finished.

Blue, Titan spores, didn't try it for the green Nessus one I did on another character.

E: You might have to be moving one you've collected during the event/while having the item on your character, if you're moving old ones it probably won't work because bullshit nonsense.
