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)

This is why you lock your good weapons. Then u have no chace of accidental deletion
-
Abandoned quest kiosk

How many people really need to reply with the same -blam!-ing stupid thing? "You should of locked your weapon dumbass". Seriously are you all a bunch of -blam!-ing parrots?
-
Today I traded over one of my raid rocket launchers to infuse into my sleeper stimulant, because my phone argued about transferring it for so long, when I transferred the launcher over I deleted it immediately. I laughed for ages at how stupid it was
-
I think everyone should be able to get more than one sword per character, especially if you only have one character to begin with. I have them all but would have been better if I could do a few at once
-
Should've used the Lock feature.
-
i deleted my cosmic joke on accident when i got the raid cloak, at least i can buy it again
-
You do know there's a lock item feature right?
-
So you even lock bro?

Edited by InfestedCyborg: 10/25/2015 12:39:22 PMYou can get it back from the weapon blue prints.. Edit. Ignore this. Thought you deleted the exotic.
-
Yeah that's not normal... They should fix that
-
Accidentally did it to my arc one, deleted a character and worked them back with the spark. Basically... Good luck man
-
Some of the comments here are suggesting people are deleting whole characters just because they accidentally deleted the sword. Bungie should re-enable the quest if it gets deleted or something...
-
Did somethin similar with my void sword ended up restarting my Titan. :(
-
It takes a millennia to dismantle an exotic. How did you not notice?? Just go buy it again from the blueprints. It might start out with garbage attack but you can just infuse to get it back to 310

Guys he said SOL EDGE not RAZE LIGHTER. It was a legendary. God, you all saying "how could you delete an exotic without noticing" sound like a bunch of illiterates because it's clear none of you read his post. As for the OP, well, I would agree, given the exclusivity of the sword as a weapon, but that would require them putting in the ability for all quest bound weapons to be retrieved by repeating the quest. It's the reason the lock feature was put in. Sad to say, you'll just have learn from it. Lock any and all gear you don't want to delete.
-
You didn't have your sword locked? I don't think there should be any saving grace for you
-
Did you check the Exotic Blue Prints? Is it there???
-
I did the [u]EXACT[/u] same thing with my titans raid gauntlets
-
Shit bro, that sucks. Guess you gotta get Soul Caliber now.
-
Maybe replay the quest? They added that too.
-
Lock lock lock
-
Lock items this feature was designed to prevent this learn it well
-
Lock. Items.
-
Sooooooooo you just going to ignore the lock feature they added
-
Can you get the sword quest in another character?
