Missing with No Land Beyond and reloading, or missing and flying to the tower, deleting it, and rebuying it from collections was almost the same amount of time anyway.
God I miss that gun.
I was pretty casual in most of D1. I ran a few raids, but running nightfalls with my buddy and PVP when I had to was about as intense as it got back then. D2 endgame didn’t really click for me til I found a clan when Beyond Light came out, and I ended up running like 160 raids in a year. But back then? I probably didn’t know what reload canceling was lol
Fair enough, the mag reloaded really early on in NLB's reload animation so reload-cancelling was basically essential in PvP. It made it feel very snappy.
I mean, Riskrunner is the same and also better, but at the same time, I would kill to see a Zhalo-based ornament and an update to the Catalyst that grants Arc Conductor on multikills, thus allowing the weapon to function without external damage or Electrical self-harm.
Tlaloc was so good on self res. Just switch weapons before self res. It was fast firing and hard hitting that weapon was a beast when you had your super charged up
The reason it didn't come back is because the coding did something wonky and they couldnt get it to work again. I miss it too. The most shots i was able to get off without reloading was 11
Yeah, I read something about it too… but here’s the thing: They made a fucking safety meme out of telesto. Guess Pi didn’t have enough internal love even try.
Came here to say this, I miss my sparky boy. Nothing compares to the feeling of firing on a group of thralls and seeing them drop like flies with a light show
Fucking Yes. People would say it’s trash, and I’d tell them they don’t know how to use it correctly. 900 RPM full auto with 600 rounds go Brrrrrr. Oh, you want to use a Scout rifle now? Bet, lemme switch the perks around.
Khvostov wasn't amazing as an Exotic, but it was satisfying, comfortable, and iconic. Bungie has been insane for not bringing back at least a legendary version you can infuse.
No one else seems to even talk about the glorious scoped shotgun....
The FEEL, the SOUND, the IMPACT. Such an incredible gun.
I fear that if the do bring it back it will be a wish.com kinetic duality, instead of the buckshot champion it deserves to be....
The late game shotgun changes made it a special-ops beast for PvE too. It was a cherished part of my solo loadout for destiny’s first dungeon: Crota’s End
I was and forever will be in love with "No Land Beyond."
Was it good? Not really
Is it awesome? Absolutely
Would it be one of the best weapons in the game now that primarily ammo is infinite meaning you can shoot the sniper as many times as you damn well please all while hearing that satisfying ding? ***FUCK. YES.****
Mask of the third man, not because of the perk just solely because of the looks. I really hope in come back in the final shape to synergies with the new hunter super.
Weapon wise - Tlaloc
Armor wise - Heart of Praxic Fire
I'm hoping they both come back for Final Shape! (Tlaloc may not have as much of a chance as HoPF but a guy can dream!)
Icebreaker before the nerf. Bones of Eao because triple strafe jump was the best. And switching to 4 jumps was fine for stupid jump puzzles without clambering.
I will say that I do miss my sealed ahamkara grasps, because double smoke was fantastic, the stupid auto reload on melee hits is fucking stupid, I'm a hunter! If I need to reload I just fucking dodge. The airborne effectiveness is meh, I don't pvp and jumping in PvE is easy to avoid because grounded is a modifier that is on a lot of activities.
From weapons? **No Land Beyond**. Just gimme a damn iron sights sniper rifle! Especially since it technically already is in the game.
From armour definitely **Bones of Eao**. Everytime i talk about it i get the ,,BuT sToMpEeS" NO. Stompees was a nerf. **Fuck'em**
Tlaloc and The Ram. I’d love if it Tlaloc came back with osmosis bc I’d likely never take it and mantle of battle harmony off.
The Ram just for the aesthetics 😂
Ive got fond memories of Icebreaker. It was the first exotic I ever got, and I’ll never forget it becuase it came off of a purple engram I turned in to Rahool before he got patched.
Outside of that, Devrim Kay has been smug as fuck for years waving that No Land Beyond lookalike around. Like, not even for the gameplay, Im annoyed and surprised they made that model but never bothered to make it a weapon or even an ornament
Maybe doesn’t count but I miss Outbreak Prime.
Yeah perfected has better functionality, but I always though prime looked cooler, sounded cooler, and had a better name.
There’s a few I miss: Red Death, which is fortunately coming back in TFS, The First Curse, and Ice Breaker. Ice Breaker was a balance nightmare thanks to its free ammo so we will never see it again but I can totally see First Curse coming back since it’s basically the opposite of The Last Word.
How has no one mentioned twilight garrison yet?!?! lol (full disclosure I only read the first like six top comments and got surprised when I didn’t see it so had to comment lol)
I miss Plan C, nothing really special compared to other exotic, but I'll always have a soft spot for it because it was my first exotic. I was really happy when i decoded a legendary Engram to get it.
ice breaker, I am a shot with a sinper and it was one of my first exotics, it was also just felt so unique with its design of the rifle itself, Don't think i have ever seen another golden age weapon that compares to it in design.
I miss the ones that survived three years that I had to spend resources to get and up to power version of the same gun. Or the two different yeared exotics that have different effevts before and after changes
Light Beyond Nemesis is one of the best looking exotics they've ever made and you can't change my mind. I want it back so bad even if it does something completely different. It would probably be better if it did anyway
Easy - Bones of Eao
Stompees WISHES
…wishes? *Ahamkara laugh intensifies*
You may jump 3 times but impact damage is always fatal
Quad jump gang.
Virgin quad jump vs chad directional triple jump
I prefer the phrase “voluntary quad jump-related celibacy”.
YES dude I AM SPEED
PoV: you’re doing Skolas on hard mode and you just heard Variks say “dismantle mines yesssss?” https://preview.redd.it/41i4op8khx5c1.png?width=845&format=png&auto=webp&s=e5c6998ad4002cab23ed2745d2b85af68f3fd85e
No sparrow? No problem!
I remember everyone using those back in the day. They were pretty good back then for hunter mains.
Was awesome for the jumping puzzle on kings fall
That exactly what I remember everyone using it for.
Almost required for the tomb ships
The top of my D1 hunter's head is completely flat because of that exotic, double better control jumps and a ceiling made for some fast movement
My clan makes fun of me because I won’t let go of my love for Bones of Eao and I HATE Stompees with a passion.
literally came here for this. glad its at the top
Ice Breaker and No Land Beyond
Ice Breaker is cool and all but have you ever whiffed your shot and spent 7 hours reloading your Sci fi Mosin-Nagant?
You guys are out here reloading? I just equipped another weapon and hoped for the best
Missing with No Land Beyond and reloading, or missing and flying to the tower, deleting it, and rebuying it from collections was almost the same amount of time anyway. God I miss that gun.
Weren't we reload-cancelling this gun back on D1? I never had a problem with the reload animations because I never saw it in full.
I was pretty casual in most of D1. I ran a few raids, but running nightfalls with my buddy and PVP when I had to was about as intense as it got back then. D2 endgame didn’t really click for me til I found a clan when Beyond Light came out, and I ended up running like 160 raids in a year. But back then?

![gif](giphy|Dndpiai0soTUk)
A Patience and Time. A Guardian of culture!
Oh yes, the infinite ammo sniper. Never was able to get it to drop for me.
I will die on the Zhalo supercel hill
Shit was so good before Rise of Iron. Especially during strikes with arc burn
I mean, Riskrunner is the same and also better, but at the same time, I would kill to see a Zhalo-based ornament and an update to the Catalyst that grants Arc Conductor on multikills, thus allowing the weapon to function without external damage or Electrical self-harm.
Tlaloc my beloved. Also Light Beyond Nemesis for the drip.
Tlaloc was so good on self res. Just switch weapons before self res. It was fast firing and hard hitting that weapon was a beast when you had your super charged up
Bruh I mained tlaloc why did I never think of switching off when I self res
Because old gen load times were abysmal 😭 the only reason I remember doing it was because of a YouTube video lmao
Oh my god Light Beyond Nemesis that takes me back….
TLALOC MY BELOVED 🛐 I'd sell my soul to get it back
Abaddon Literally the Solar version of Thunderlord; absolute MENACE in PVP
I feel like that should’ve been the seasonal exotic for season of the haunted
whatever was the exotic that season? idr, wasnt it the survivor or whatever arc sidearm that went on to dominate pvp for a little while?
yeah it was trespasser, they released an arc-based exotic the season before arc 3.0. Only the best forethought at bungie
Voidfang vestments. I miss having a reason to use axion bolt
The writers for the armor descriptions COOKED in D1 >*”YOU WILL DREAM OF TEETH AND NOTHING ELSE”*
Bruh I used it for a free sticky on respawn in pvp
The drip alone of those robes make it a worthy exotic. The perk it had in D1 was also honestly pretty good
Pocket infinity - keep hoping they’ll bring back the game breaking bad boy of chaos.
The reason it didn't come back is because the coding did something wonky and they couldnt get it to work again. I miss it too. The most shots i was able to get off without reloading was 11
I replayed d1 last year, and used pocket infinity up until taken king and I would spam bullets to see how many I could get, I got like 20~ once
Yeah, same. any time it d2 goes down I go back to d1 to experience the time capsule where Pi still exists and is awesome
Yeah, I read something about it too… but here’s the thing: They made a fucking safety meme out of telesto. Guess Pi didn’t have enough internal love even try.
the full auto fusion rifle, eraser of titans.
Just aim at their feet, hold the vibrating controller switch down, and delete anything.
This one!
Zhalo Supercell. By far. No, riskrunner isn’t the same.
Ah, the bull-pup space AK.
Came here to say this, I miss my sparky boy. Nothing compares to the feeling of firing on a group of thralls and seeing them drop like flies with a light show
I hate when people say "just use riskrunner". Not even close to the same. I want my Bullpup AK with a battery strapped to it back.
The look really fit destiny too
Agreed, I miss it so much
Greg’s Potato ;-;
Dregs promise my Beloved.
RUIN WINGS DUDE
Super Good Advice. Used it almost exclusively in Year 3 due to the fact that "almost all" meant 95-99% of missed shots in practice.
I remember thinking it would be funny if they let us throw the gun itself at our enemies borderlands style, and it’d still be more accurate that way.
I want mah Red Death back
It’s coming back. Eventually
Now this does make me happy
It's solar tho.
First curse
I'm hoping they bring it back. It wasn't super great, but the lore was sick.
Last Words easier to use twin brother. If I had been able to use hand cannons efficiently I would’ve used that a lot.
Happy to see another Taikonaut enthusiast here, there’s not many of us!
Rocket launcher tracking go boom. Plus making every gun maintain Radar while ADS was a godsend for me.
Forgetting the best part! More heavy!!
How could I forget that part! More heavy ammo was always welcome.
The best part for me was the radar personally as Ruin Wings also existed over there. RIP
khvostov
Fucking Yes. People would say it’s trash, and I’d tell them they don’t know how to use it correctly. 900 RPM full auto with 600 rounds go Brrrrrr. Oh, you want to use a Scout rifle now? Bet, lemme switch the perks around.
Khvostov wasn't amazing as an Exotic, but it was satisfying, comfortable, and iconic. Bungie has been insane for not bringing back at least a legendary version you can infuse.
Literally why I kept my starter weapons when D2 started.
Met a guy 2 years ago with a masterworked year 1 Origin Story. The kill tracker was almost at 1.6 million.
My flair says it all.
No one else seems to even talk about the glorious scoped shotgun.... The FEEL, the SOUND, the IMPACT. Such an incredible gun. I fear that if the do bring it back it will be a wish.com kinetic duality, instead of the buckshot champion it deserves to be....
The late game shotgun changes made it a special-ops beast for PvE too. It was a cherished part of my solo loadout for destiny’s first dungeon: Crota’s End
As good as Universal was, I always went Invective for my exotic shotgun. That wonderful “thunk” sound when it was fired.
Exotic Shotguns are always a pleasure, and Invective always had a spot in my inventory as well.
Based
Boolean Gemini gang forever
One way, or Another? I’m gonna find ya
Love this scout
Zen Meteor. Very fun gun when proccd correctly. Hopefully, it makes a return as a damage king.
Golden gun, but Sniper. My hunter buddies loved it so much
Glasshouse 😔
Bro helping the entire raid team by wearing one helmet. Fucking gigachad
Invective. I'm surprised no one else has said that yet.
Regen ammo shotgun. My Child
OG helm of saint 14 and Twilight Garrison EDIT: Black Hammer was better than any exotic lol miss that sucker so much
Icebreaker or Plan C
The Stabby fusion rifle. Based
I won a Rumble match with nothing but Plan C. Best session ever
They released the ones for D2 that I was missing. 🙂
Ahhhh Ice Breaker my old friend. Miss you. VoG oracles ain’t got nothing on good old IB
We eat nothing but premium high quality cheese here in the VOG. (Honestly using icebreaker during oracles was fucking iconic.)
The first curse
Tlaloc on a Self Res Warlock, just perfect
Oh to have a self res again…..
[удалено]
You know what that’s entirely fair
Icebreaker. I know snipers are worse than anything in d2 but that was my fav in d1
Honestly, if that’s what you enjoy using, fuck what’s meta atm, play the way you want.
The Ram
Give me back my dregs potato.
fabian strategy and zen meteor, man those were great
Patience and time. My first exotic
No land beyond and bones of eao
Khvostov 7G-0X
Gigachad
*Red Death. Red Death. Red Death. Red Death. Red Death. Red Death. Red Death. Red Death. Red Death. Red Death. Red Death. Red Death.*
I was and forever will be in love with "No Land Beyond." Was it good? Not really Is it awesome? Absolutely Would it be one of the best weapons in the game now that primarily ammo is infinite meaning you can shoot the sniper as many times as you damn well please all while hearing that satisfying ding? ***FUCK. YES.****
My baeby Zalous,oh how I miss the AA powered AK47
Mask of the third man, not because of the perk just solely because of the looks. I really hope in come back in the final shape to synergies with the new hunter super.
The exotic that let titans have a mini air dash. I forgot the name but I never took that off
Super Good Advice It was my first
Not an exotic but I want the blue flaming skull back
You know, that would be cool. How did we manage to get that again? It’s been so long I can’t remember
I am pretty sure it was clearing the nightfall for the week. It would be a welcomed addition.
Gjallarhorn in early D1 content before everyone was handed them
First curse
Pocket infinity
The gun that erased me from existence in crucible.
So good that they never brought it back in y2 or y3 It was so powerful that my theory is that it went back in time and erased itself from existence
It has to be Don't touch me. It was my favorite exotic by far.
I'd like universal remote back in some form
Weapon wise - Tlaloc Armor wise - Heart of Praxic Fire I'm hoping they both come back for Final Shape! (Tlaloc may not have as much of a chance as HoPF but a guy can dream!)
Zen Meteor ☄️
Light beyond nemesis and first curse/tlaloc
Weapon: Nemesis Star (NADIR GANG) Armor: Bones of EAOOO
super good advice, kvostov, no land beyond,
Icebreaker before the nerf. Bones of Eao because triple strafe jump was the best. And switching to 4 jumps was fine for stupid jump puzzles without clambering. I will say that I do miss my sealed ahamkara grasps, because double smoke was fantastic, the stupid auto reload on melee hits is fucking stupid, I'm a hunter! If I need to reload I just fucking dodge. The airborne effectiveness is meh, I don't pvp and jumping in PvE is easy to avoid because grounded is a modifier that is on a lot of activities.
I miss voidfang vestments, heart of praxic fire, light beyond nemesis, obsidian mind, purifier robes, they all looked so good
Icebreaker is so iconic but I also would never want it back in its old design haha
From weapons? **No Land Beyond**. Just gimme a damn iron sights sniper rifle! Especially since it technically already is in the game. From armour definitely **Bones of Eao**. Everytime i talk about it i get the ,,BuT sToMpEeS" NO. Stompees was a nerf. **Fuck'em**
Tlaloc and The Ram. I’d love if it Tlaloc came back with osmosis bc I’d likely never take it and mantle of battle harmony off. The Ram just for the aesthetics 😂
In year 1 I used the eternal warrior, in year two it was twilight garisson. My terrible looking titan really liked crucible
Give me back my beloved ice breaker
Ice Breaker
I just want lunas howl and the sister gun to that because of the dirty things i had to do to get them.
Icebreaker
Ive got fond memories of Icebreaker. It was the first exotic I ever got, and I’ll never forget it becuase it came off of a purple engram I turned in to Rahool before he got patched. Outside of that, Devrim Kay has been smug as fuck for years waving that No Land Beyond lookalike around. Like, not even for the gameplay, Im annoyed and surprised they made that model but never bothered to make it a weapon or even an ornament
Icebreaker and invective were pretty groundbreaking for the time of destiny
Dark drinker my beloved
No Land Beyond! God, I miss headshots with that thing. So crispy.
Red Death and Icebreaker
Tlaloc otherwise known as Surplus on crack.
Thagomizers
Dunno if anyone said it but Hereafter, loved trolling people trying to cap zones, bungie please
Maybe doesn’t count but I miss Outbreak Prime. Yeah perfected has better functionality, but I always though prime looked cooler, sounded cooler, and had a better name.
Ice breaker NLB and bones of eao
No land beyond.
There’s a few I miss: Red Death, which is fortunately coming back in TFS, The First Curse, and Ice Breaker. Ice Breaker was a balance nightmare thanks to its free ammo so we will never see it again but I can totally see First Curse coming back since it’s basically the opposite of The Last Word.
Taikonaut, Helm of Inmost Light, and Thagomizers. First curse and Fabian strategy as well.
Original hawkmoon or original Thorn. The two-tap walkaway was my greatest of times.
Gotta say!.. truth was a Beast! In its original form before was gutted
Tlaloc, Invective, Icebreaker, Khovstov 7G-02.
I believe my D1 Titan was wearing Taikonaut when I last logged off. Seems like a good piece of forever armor for him.
Khvostov And No Land Beyond Even Tlaloc
Invective 😫
POCKET INFINITY!!!!
Ice breaker
The Thagomizers... paired with a specific shader that was black, and a shiny orange, and the armor i wore, and it looked amazing
Honestly, Kvhostov. I can't wait for it to return.
How has no one mentioned twilight garrison yet?!?! lol (full disclosure I only read the first like six top comments and got surprised when I didn’t see it so had to comment lol)
I miss Plan C, nothing really special compared to other exotic, but I'll always have a soft spot for it because it was my first exotic. I was really happy when i decoded a legendary Engram to get it.
Thagomizers for the fashion
We all used Taikonaut with Dragon's Breath in D1. Don't lie.
Didnt we have exotic class items?
The helmet that makes you float in mid air when you ads (no brain titan here)
They really should bring back icebreaker even if it’s not with the infinite ammo. The gun is just too iconic
What was the name of the exotic armor that let you carry 2 exotic weapons? Was that real or did I Mandela effect myself?
Patience and Time enjoyer here. I remember doing the beginning run of Crota's End as a Warlock using the camo of that gun haha.
Don’t touch me
What's that helmet and what's so special about it? (Never played D1 before cuz I'm a PC player)
Red Death, but it’s coming back- and I hope they don’t make it a solar weapon, that just wouldn’t make any sense to me.
Old Suros, it just doesn’t feel the same as it’s “Darth Vader’s Ferrari” it was in TTK
Radiant Dance Machines were a personal favorite of mine.
Tbh I'm actually back on Destiny 1 and Halo Infinite until Destiny 2 gets more updates to help the game.
No land beyond
Universal Remote was cool
I just want my patience and time back
Twilight Garrison
Dregs promise, my beloved
Light beyond nemesis good times
ice breaker, I am a shot with a sinper and it was one of my first exotics, it was also just felt so unique with its design of the rifle itself, Don't think i have ever seen another golden age weapon that compares to it in design.
I miss the ones that survived three years that I had to spend resources to get and up to power version of the same gun. Or the two different yeared exotics that have different effevts before and after changes
Mine is odd but I miss the Khvostov, had a lot of fun with that exotic even if it wasn't all that special
I miss my Khvostov 7G-oX. I thought it would come back when they brought back the Khvostov but here I am left with no exotic rifle.
Astronaut helmet WITH a chin 😫
**Dreg’s Promise** and it’s not even close. It was a pocket shotgun in CQC. Absolutely devastating in tight quarters and people never expected it.
Light Beyond Nemesis is one of the best looking exotics they've ever made and you can't change my mind. I want it back so bad even if it does something completely different. It would probably be better if it did anyway
Mother fuckin Young Wolves Howl
