Roughly 10 minutes ago, I completed a Hard Mode Crota Raid (shoutout to Cuddly and the Crew from LFG) and recieved the Crux of Crota. I was excited to finally upgrade my Eidolon Ally and test it out on my Warlock. I got to the the Cosmodrome, applied the upgrades to my Ally but forgot that I had my P&T equipped in Secondary slot. This meant that once the Crux was applied, the Necrochasm couldn't equip itself in my primary slot automatically, like it should. Instead, it went to my inventory.
That's when I realised, I had no Primary Weapon equipped. Just my Secondary and Heavy. I switched P&T out for a shotgun, intrigued by what I found. The Necrochasm was still unequipped. This had a couple of effects:
- Primary Ammo no longer dropped, Heavy and Secondary dropped at a significantly higher rate.
- Game treated my Special as my Primary, and Heavy as Special. (I ran out of Special ammo and the message 'No Primary Ammo flashed').
The main effect that I was concerned about here was the increased Heavy drops, I could use my Heavy as my Primary and very efficiently; I hardly ever ran out of ammo. If you don't believe me about this glitch, check out my Warlock here on bungie.net - my Primary slot has completely disappeared!
Edit: Yes, this may be old news. I didn't claim to be the first to discover this. The reason I posted this is so that those who are unaware of the glitch could find out.
Edit 2: This works best with Icebreaker as your Exotic Special and a Legendary Rocket (like Hunger). As long as your Heavy Ammo is empty, all your kills and kills by others around you get you Heavy Ammo.
For best results, empty your Heavy, kill everything in an area without picking up Heavy drops. Once everything is dead, you'll have plenty of free Heavies!

this happened to me with the First Curse quest. I had the Imprecation quest gun on, turned it in to the gunsmith, and had no primary. It gave me some trash auto rifle to use that did 26 precision to the head in crucible, but had the same fire rate as a focus fire suros regime. It literally sucked, but I ended up getting a 1.3 kd in rumble. It was black and looked like red death with out the bayonet, or the blood, or any cosmetic features
-
Here's how to do it without the crux.
-
Oh my God... Imagine this with ruin wings! Brb gotta do the hard raid 19 times to get the crux!
-
See the necrochasm is actually intended for this "glitch" it is the true power of the necrochasm making you have no primary and increasing heavy ammo drops
-
Stay away from green engrams. They might auto equip.
-
Has anyone jumped into crucible with no primary? I wanted to try it, but didn't think about it until after. Wonder if you'd start with heavy ammo since you only have the 2 weapons equipped.
-
Old news, you are over a month too late with this.
-
It disappeared because when you upgraded the aly into necrochasm, you already had an exotic weapon equipped. The game only allows 1 exotic weapon/armor at a time. Therefore it unequipped the necrochasm and left you without a primary. You didn't glitch anything.
-
Just restart your game it's probably a BUNGIE server anyways ;).
-
Until you pick up a green weapon

God people are such dicks...

Or you can try to put all primaries in the vault and just use the rest.

-

-
You're like 4 weeks late, we had done that by week 2 of hard mode lol
-
Happened to me as well. Had icebreaker on and turned the ally into the necro. My primary inventory was full when I did it and it created itself another spot under the third row
-
Had Ice breaker equipped when I equipped the crux and my primary inventory was full so it gave me a 10th slot just for the nechrocasm.. Once I changed it out and what not the slot was gone I have a picture but don't know where to upload it
-
Womp.. Old
-
This glitch happens to me in pvp thats why I only use shotguns or fusion rifles the whole match
-

-
I had thunderlord equipped when applied the crux and no such thing happened with me.
