[quote]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)[/quote] A million people are gonna troll and say "you should've locked it!", but I did the exact same thing and I too wish you could go to a kiosk and either start mission over or buy the darn thing back. I feel your pain.

  • They should auto-lock quest/story obtained rares, because why not? Exotics take so long to dismantle it should be impossible to dismantle one by mistake. Glad I've not yet dismantled anything I didn't mean to, hard luck for OP, but hopefully lesson learned?

  • The lock feature as been a thing for quite some time now. If you don't use it, it's your own fault.
