I just dismantled my Sol Edge..

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)

  • I'm not sure how you managed to press the wrong button, not hear the equip sound, and hold the dismantle button on the legendary without noticing anything was wrong. Still, that sucks. They should really give the option to redo the quest if a legendary kiosk would be too much.

    • Dismantling weapons only obtainable should give you that quest again so you can re-obtain it

      • Why don't players lock gear even if they're considering whether or not to keep it? Dude you brought this on yourself. Rookie mistake.

            • Horrible story. Sorry man. I was playing super late the other night and unlocked some 307 gauntlets to use for infusion. Then accidentally deleted them. I was super annoyed lol. Those legendarys dismantle too fast IMO. I wish they dismantled more slowly.

            • If I had to chose one sword to go without, I'd pick the dark drinker. That solar sword is insane DPS.

I feel your pain.
