Ok so let me get this right, in order to get the catalysts i have to damage a level 7 wave boss in escalation protocol five weeks in a row, for a slightly faster AOE attack [spoiler]that honestly is lacking girth if you know what I'm saying[/spoiler] which yeilds NO ADDITIONAL DAMAGE. No i can't accept this, I can't allow this, [u]I WON'T ALLOW THIS.[/u] I'm a sword main. I've got over 6k kills on my quickfang. Had i have stayed since January instead of [i]"taking a break"[/i] then I'd have somewhere north of 15k kills. The catalysts for the worldline zero.... [b]CHALLENGE ACCEPTED[/b]. but [u][b]THE REWARD FOR A MASTERWORK EXOTIC SWORD[/b][/u] unacceptable. Unacceptable. [u]UNACCEPTABLE[/u] you give us a challenge worthy of the most skilled of hunters, the bravest of titans the most cunning of warlocks & the reward for such a thing? A non invincible warpstrike that's slightly faster on start up. [b]DO NOT DO THIS![/b] in the name of every sword ever held by every guardian [u]DO NOT DO THIS.[/u] every single catalyst so far in the game, makes that exotic truly exotic. It makes the grind worth it. A full auto vigilance wing, rat king with infestation, more range and stability with tracer weapons, huge range on crimson, 7 boops with tractor cannon instead of just 4. More stability with darci. But this... This slightly faster start up. How could you? How could you make a challenge so hard but the reward so utterly meaningless? [url]https://youtu.be/QahStxeJYz4[/url] This just can't be. This just simply can't be. "[i]Another dimension[/i]" should be something [u]THE NINE[/u] Take notice of, it should be: [i]judgment in it's infinite & definite form. That which shows you understand, that which extends, completes & coheres to you! Death, exhibited in a torrent of Light. The end of all things with a [u]whirling waltz[/u] [/i] It is unbecoming of a guardian who's slain Gods, fought without light, fought with light filled to the brim, fought and fights while creating & sustaining light & fights forever to take on such a trial, such a chore, such a Herculean task to be bestowed a gift which is more of a burden having than it is obtaining. By what right do you give us the thing we all wanted, cried and begged, longed for & loved when given to; only to know immediate & intimate shame when we understood the task set before us and the treasure to be granted at its end? This is an injustice! This exotic sword is supposed to be defining, it's supposed to be worthy of its slot. You said you'd make us feel powerful again. Then please do so. If there's more to be done with this sword then give it to us. Win 3 matches of trials with it, finish the prestige raid and both raid lairs with it. Whatever task you attach to it to make it better, we'll gladly take. Because as it stands this exotic sword catalyst at this moment is an insult to not only those who are proficient with swords but also to every other exotic. I'd like to ask others below to comment what they think would be a better or more deserving catalyst upgrade/ perk(s) than what is known to come with it after such a difficult challenge.
