So yeah, the title says it all.
(No, I'm not an 8 year old crying for attention because I made a mistake. Just hear me out.)
Basically, I was running a strike and got half way through it until I picked up a rare heavy that had dropped. Having Sol Edge equipped, I opened my inventory, went to my heavy slot, and looked to see if the rare was any good. Seeing that it wasn't something I needed and at the same time noticing that I was needed in the strike, I hurriedly went about trying to delete it but instead I equipped the rare and held down the button to dismantle (because Sol Edge moved to the slot that the rare had recently occupied) and BOOM! Before I could take my finger off the button, It got dismantled into a ruin, some materials, and a few marks. Thinking to myself, you're an idiot. You're really an idiot. After I stopped staring at the screen in shock and horror, I went and finished the strike so my Fireteam (randoms) wouldn't have to wait on me.
So yeah, I'm feeling pretty stupid right now. Honestly, I wouldn't be so mad if I could get the sword back. Even if that means grinding for another hour. I would do it. But I can't. Because I can't get the quest again. I can't get all three swords unless I deleted a character. I don't want to have to do all the stuff again on one of my characters for the sword. I would though, happily do the quest again to get the Sol Edge sword back on my hunter. In the end, it's just a video game. But, I was already so attached to that sword that I felt sad when I saw it go.
I would really like to get all three swords and not have to re-do a character for something so simple as a few button presses/holds.
Could this be food for thought Deej?
Bump if you think that a second chance for the "Sword Quest" should be an option.
(I don't think that it would be a problem with people farming materials from it because of it taking so much time to complete. It really wouldn't be worth dismantling)

Edited by Spartan 872: 10/24/2015 9:31:06 PMCan't you rebuy your swords off of the Exotic Weapon IPad? I mean it's going to be 280 but at least you will have it again. Edit: Never Mind. You really should be able to get them back. At least give the one part back to Shax to start over.

That's why there's a lock feature dipstick.
-
Always LOCK anything I get that I might even like/or consider keeping. For that exact reason.. It's just one click away bud
-
Bro there's this thing called locking guns/swords. You should have done that if you want ANYTHING to survive. Do this on other important things so it doesn't happen in the future.
-
Just go to the kiosk and buy one
-
Use the lock for your weapons and armor, that's what it's there for.
-
Bummer dude
-
That's what I did.
-
Did the same thing with my longbow synth about a week before TTK I tried to get another, but at that point it was almost impossible. I do have a 1000 yard stare but I still liked the longbow better
-
Idk but abanded quests
-
My friend deleted his while we were talking about the exotic swords ironically. I think he was gonna infuse it but deleted it instead he was not a happy camper
-
Have you tried going to the abandoned quest kiosk? I know you finished that part but maybe a glimmer of hope?

Edited by DedWeightDex: 10/24/2015 9:03:10 PMEdit: sorry thought Sol edge was the exotic nvm.
-
It's easy to forget to lock things sometimes. That sucks though.
-
Delete a character and do it again
-
I agree If bungie desides to make legendary items even more unique then exotics, they should have an storage for them like the exotic blueprints
-
Havent really gotten started using swords Solar, void or arc damage ?

Edited by DHG Orpheus7: 10/24/2015 8:41:48 PMYou can go to the lost quest kiosk in the Vangaurd hall in the tower and reclaim it I think.
-
This is why I every single item locked. This way I am Positive before I dismantle soemthing
-

-

-
Why didn't you just lock it?

That's why they made locking an option. I'd maybe feel for you before they introduced locking, but after? You really have no excuse.
