[@GammelGäddan05]

Other weapons: discovered in the tomb of the almighty god, worshipped by all Graviton Lance: found in chicago

[@shadyone6620]

Monte-Carlo: found in casino.

[@n0ch4ncelafrance]

Gotta keep that thang on you when traveling through Chiraq.

[@lymh4850]

A truly horrifying origin, as it seems.

[@Al-cf9qi]

Two tailed fox emmanates heavy "silly goober" energy and i love it -Its COMICALLY MASSIVE -makes fox noises when pulling it out and when aiming down sights -the lore tab is a literal anime opening

[@Techhunter_Talon]

Another fact: Xenophage's Dawning ornament gives Omar a little festive hat, apparently.

[@sn1pertoaster]

Not just apparently, I can confirm this as fact

[@PlatinumDestroyer]

AYO WHAT

[@CasofShadows]

the tex mech ornament for gives him a cowboy hat but don't remember if it is true or not

[@FirTreeGaming]

There was me hoping that you'd just say 'No time to explain' at 13:23, and go straight to the next weapon xP "No time to explain why I don't have time to explain"

[@BanHammerFromPhighting]

i have no time to explain why i don't have time to explain about no time to explain

[@TheFawse]

Afaik Lumina wasn’t found with Thorn, it was created from the actual, original Thorn, and the Thorn we use in-game is just a copy And Hierarchy of Needs wasn’t created by Rasputin, it was created by a rogue A.I. called Soteria, who was created to plot out extragalactic colonization efforts. The A.I. went rogue by trying to send out the colony ships without permission, so they “pilloried” her in the Spire of the Watcher. We infiltrated the Spire to stop the Vex from containing Rasputin, but it turns out they were actually there to find information on Soteria. After we defeated the Vex the A.I. was able to try and escape, but the only escape route it had was to enter into a nearby bow, turning it into Hierarchy. I only learned this recently, had no clue what was actually happening in that dungeon

[@Witherhoard]

Cool fact about Witherhoard: It’s my favorite

[@user-123-l6f]

Name checks out 😂

[@genrali]

You are your favorite?

[@genrali]

My favorite is AoS

[@XM8A1]

​@@Just_be_yourself109 So he's a sheep cuz it's his favorite? There's always one.

[@DaddyMo444]

witherhoard will forever sit atop a diamond in crested pedestal that's located in the most special place in my heart. When I was still fairly new to the game & I hadn't honed my buildcrafting skills just yet & aside from matchmaking,I have always been a solo player. So for a player that didn't fully understand how to maximize damage & didn't have teammates to compensate. This made witherhoard feel even more incredible. Being able to hold down choke points with one shot then turn my attention back to another threat really came in clutch for me so many times.

[@mattguy1773]

The jotuun toaster now being a jotuun but a toaster with a hand on it will disappoint me for all eternity

[@yasininn76]

And the fact that I didn't get it make me sad

[@genrali]

​@@yasininn76 just buy it from MoLL

[@SnyperMK2000JclL]

Right?! Like just a stock toaster with a Black Armory logo.... >_> just make the body look like the freaking gun and it would have been the highest selling item ever, even more than the NERF Gjallerhorn and that's saying something...

I love how Deterministic Chaos’ fun fact is literally just how you end up obtaining the gun since there’s not much to say about the gun

[@jadetortellini6150]

Last word should also block ADS. The mental image of fan firing a revolver at eye level just physically hurts

[@elitedonut1089]

Naw facts

[@weirdguyjerry3724]

I get what you mean but the gun just goes back to your hip when you fire unfortunately

[@darthcerebus]

It does explain the extreme recoil because you aren't bracing your arm so it's wild shots at that point.

[@JuJu-dc3yf]

They could easily animate your left thumb pilling the hammer down in first person

[@angelousmortis8041]

Lumina is actually the Original Thorn given to us by Shin Malphur and purified by our Guardian.

[@biohazard724]

Side fact about Hardlight: a gameplay nerf to the gun rendered it's lore tab incorrect as the tab is an ad for the weapon representing it with "infinite range". 4 years ago Bungie nerfed Hardlight to give it damage drop-off, i.e. _finite_ range.

[@Mintybird]

21:43 The Jade Rabbit figurines found on the Moon are actually a reference to Chinese folklore and mythology. The Jade Rabbit in these stories is a companion of Chang'e, a moon goddess, and has a mortar and pestle, with which it constantly grinds and pounds the herbs needed to create an elixir of life and immortality. It's more or less a different interpretation of the western equivalent of the "Man On The Moon" with which they interpreted the shapes of the dark spots on the moon to be a rabbit with a mortar and pestle. It's only fitting to have some Daito merch lying around, since their most iconic weapon is based on this folk tale in name.

[@Soapromancer]

It makes sense that there is a god of pain in delicate tomb, because it's easily the most painful fusion rifle to try and have fun with.

[@QLoNBs]

Also euphony has two hands on it. One under the sight snd one near the trigger

[@vancarson440]

21:37 the Huckleberry isn’t just a SMG designed by Tex mechanica, it draws its design elements and inspiration from Old west Gatling guns get this also used have 30 round magazines.

[@friendlyneighborhoodclown7754]

The Wardcliff Coil is a reference to the Wardenclyffe Tower built by Nikola Tesla

[@CitrisJones]

I was hoping someone else would point this out

[@bionuvanui3142]

Another hint for Revision Zero is that two of its ornaments show it evolving.

[@agent2596]

prospector has so little going on that it didnt even get a lore fun fact LMFAO

[@oi_bruv]

It's got some flavor now, at least

[@ddatloh]

As a day one prospector enthusiast I must say that I never once questioned anything about the gun other than it do be prospecting

[@biohazard724]

Weapons of hope is a concept worth revisiting especially since support frames will just increase in frequency.

[@SnyperMK2000JclL]

I just realized something... Delicate Tomb alone is proof that Nez will NEVER completely die and will ALWAYS be able to come back, i mean come on the gun might sit in most people vaults but we are never "getting rid of it" for good...

[@KO-2201]

This is why I try to use Xenophage as much as possible no guardian left behind, even if they are now a bug. (Also answers "Would you love me even if I was a bug?")

[@YungSnoopy]

It's awesome learning about exotics I earned solo. It makes it that more special. Especially the Osteo, Parasite and Revision Zero

[@shadyone6620]

Hierarchy of needs is described incorrectly. It wasn't just created by Rasputin. Originally those bows were used by Seraphs in combination with orbital platforms as powerful mass destruction weapons. It was us, Guardian, who accidentally uploaded what remained of Augurmind Soteria into the bow, so now our AI-powered smart bow can direct homing arrows. The Warmind sounds you hear when equipping the bow are reused Rasputin's phrases from warmind bunkers from Season of Worthy. Lumina isn't "found in the same place as Thorn", it is THE Thorn, original one, that Shin Malphur gave us. We cleansed it with help of Banshee first into its original form, Rose, and then we imbued it with Light to make Lumina. Addition to the fun facto about Quicksilver Storm: Quicksilver nanotech that power the weapon is actually SIVA tech developed by Clovis Bray, and upgraded and developed further by Neomuni. The auto-rifle actually recognizes Elsie Bray as authorized user because it's still inheriting SIVA database. Red Death's perk name is Redemption, making it Red Death's Redemption, a clever reference to famous gunslinger game from Rockstar. Jade Rabbit is a reference to Chinese mythology, since Moon colony was established by China. Ancient Chinese believed that the Jade Rabbit was granted immortality by the great Jade Emperor and that he's residing on the Moon. Thorn we find in D2 is not THE Thorn, but rather a knockoff copy made by one of Dredgen Yor's followers and never finished. We find it half-charred in the old campfire, and restore it with Banshee's help into properly working order. Banshee says that he's obliged to report to Vanguard on finding that weapon, but eventually forgets.

[@codymitchell7982]

Love the two-tailed fox lore. It's big.

[@Saphire_Throated_Carpenter_Ant]

Fact: If you loaded into crota withouy g-horn you quickly found yourself back in orbit...

[@angelousmortis8041]

Wasn't Crimson, specifically, made by *our* Guardian from fragments of Red Death directly after The Red War started in case we ever lost our Light again? And I believe it's also a Guardian Killer, just like Red Death.

[@gavo7911]

Another fun fact about Red Death Reformed, its new design in D2 is actually its very first original design seen all the way back in D1 concept art before it became the bloody weapon we see in that game. So the old design represents its new purpose as a weapon of justice and healing.

[@Meowow55iscat]

I forgot Borealis existed

[@Matt-jh9qm]

You and me both

[@fishonamission1270]

Really appreciate this type of destiny content. Weapon reviews and gameplays can get a little boring sometimes. Keep up the good work ❤️

[@giacomobell643]

if we face fikruls next 4 big dudes will we be able to get their weapons too? what if they're all different kinds of uniquely functioning rocket sidearms like BBL which shoot 2 arrow like bolts that appear to be non physical, or imbued with void given its deep synergy with void keywords. To continue this what if fikrul made each weapon with every element so a solar, arc, strand and stasis version along with void, this along with the scorn episode is pretty cool to think about.

[@morganpriest7726]

If we get anything for killing fikrul, it should be his staff as an arc exotic glaive.

[@giacomobell643]

[@morganpriest7726]

Wait, so hawkmoon was created twice? For both crow and the guardian or just crow

every once in a while i get a video recommended from you and its a reminder that you have a very nice voice

[@miniwarchief3180]

67. One of my first exotics and still one of my favorites

[@primearchon4780]

If you look at Collective Obligation the frame is made out of a glaive, I just thought that was cool fact and wanted to share also I think it would be cool idea if Bungie made it to where it would be effected by any perks that boost glaives since it is a gun made out of a glaive

[@vainthedestroyer]

Now I wonder what vex mythoclast final form looks like

[@iceddiamondsyt]

Look at atheon, id imagine his weapon is it

[@vainthedestroyer]

@@iceddiamondsyt imagine if it had a ornament that crystals on it that would look amazing

[@iceddiamondsyt]

@@vainthedestroyer that would be pretty cool

[@darthcerebus]

@@vainthedestroyer I was just about to say that, a Throne of Glass ornament with the Vault crystals over it. I don't even have mythoclast yet because that specific gun does not want to be around me and I still would buy that.

Isnt winterbite from an unknown enemy that attacked the colonyship that landed on neptune. The enemy most likely came from a pyramidship and it stabbed the hull of the ship. When the crew went outside to look winterbite was still lodged in the hull

[@Xenomorphdude472]

Ace of Spades is my favorite Hand Cannon for hunters. You shoot, spin and reload.

[@moonlight_white]

Eriana's Vow enjoyer here: The weapon skin "Heat Sink" is the only skin to feature an ammo counter on the gun.

[@Mr.Illuminaughty]

Anyone else missing Crucible laser tag?

[@Preadyth]

Fun fact: Bungie refused to update the guardian class icon on Hier Apparent all of last year when Titans were the winners of Guardians Games. Warlocks had the icon for over 2 years before it switched to Hunters immediately after they won the most recent games…

Gonna need a whole video on MIDA MULTI TOOL.

All little late but you forgot the best part about Prometheus Lens: Cayde-6 tried to anyone who would listen to steal it for him.

[@wolfofumbra8332]

Fun fact about Lord of Wolves, they have neglected longer than it's been in the game

[@damascus-ut1ee]

I was told that Gjallahorn was made of a fallen guardian’s remains too, very similar to Xenophage.

[@darthcerebus]

All the armor of the Guardians who died at Twilight Gap were melted down all into a single substance and forged into the Gjallarhorn.

[@bloodylotus9304]

Wordcliff coil was also on American dad along with xir have fun

[@houstonflisk4885]

skyburners oath would be so much better if it could reliably proc ignitions :c

[@sen314bot]

It does ignite reliably. Just in case you didn't know, it only scorches when you hipfire it.

[@darthcerebus]

I wish we could switch back and forth to the lob shots from hipfire or just the faster straight shots it originally was. I never liked the new version of it.

[@MW2proification]

Interesting how Wardcliff Coil is capable of firing what is equivalent to miniature Big Bangs!

[@reclaimer4236]

Great video!!! Please do armor next if you can!

[@Legendi-chan]

Bastion is defo my favourite

[@sirisdarkrift6062]

Though the image depicts a hunter, Dredgen Yor who made the Thorn was actually a Titan, and his armor, “Devastation Complex”, is actually in game. There’s even official art of him that Bungie made depicting this.

[@darthcerebus]

Oh man, imagine he being a Titan but his first guardian kill was a hunter and the cloak is a trophy of it.

[@sh4rkstooth340]

when are we getting Old Chicago sandbox? Because why was Graviton Lance found there lmao

[@ambassador8524]

Anyone hear a rifle called confusion rifle basically it doesn’t know what element is gonna shoot until you fired the bolts

[@thelaser1803]

is it just me or the symmetry faction logo looks like an up side down version of the strength stat icon

[@sirshay6156]

I really hope they finally give us Old Chicago as a location in game instead of a New planet or moon

[@darthcerebus]

Hell, I'd even take a dungeon or something where we get Graviton Lance themed weapons/armor. 360 rpm auto rifle that has the same noise and the same blocky design? That's good stuff, right there.

wait...sweet business is 150 ammo,but the divinity is 194 ammo(the most?)

[@darthcerebus]

I think it's special because it's the highest of bullet weapons. Being a beam gun it requires more because it's constant damage having it on target.

[@Travige57]

That was awesome

[@yasininn76]

How come Hawkmoon was in D1 if the traveler gave it to us though. Is it just another retcon or was there an explanation

[@darthcerebus]

After we lost it in the Red War the Traveler remade it directly for us and Crow. Same with the Radiant Accipiter.
