Whoa! You're gonna be a legend!
Aight for everyone who wants to get in on the fun this weekend here is the tutorial.

1. Make the game performance as lovely as you possibly can. Windowed mode. 30fps. Download poo poo in the background. Have streams open. Some of this might just be superstition although 30fps definitely affects things.

2. Open up the crafting window. Position your mouse over the weapon you want to glitch onto something else.

3. Click on the first weapon, then immediately click on the second weapon as the animation is playing. You might hear two clicks from the game, you might not. This needs to be fractions of a second. If you are moving between weapon types, ie: shotgun to auto rifle, you have to click first weapon then hit a/w/s/d to move to the correct weapon then spam click on the second weapon.

4. If the crafting screen loads up the first weapon, try again. If it loads up the second weapon but it has the normal frame for that second weapon, try again. It will probably not work the first, second, or fiftieth time. Expect the first time you do this to basically be 20+ minutes of going "Am I doing this right??? I don't think I'm doing this right."

5. You've done it correctly if the crafting screen loads up the second weapon but displays the frame choices of the first one. You can select any of the masterworks right away. You can come back and reshape this weapon later after leveling it, just do not touch the frame selection.

Cool options to try:

Go to standard is putting a shotgun on things which are not shotguns because this will massively increase the projectile count damage. Use Imperial Decree or Ragnhild as they are aggressive frame shotties, the best for this. Stick one on an Ammit or other auto rifle and watch it melt anything in the game which isn't a raid boss. Don't stick a shotgun on a rocket launcher, as the rockets will collide with each other when you shoot and instantly murder you.

For raid bosses, stick a shotgun on Tarnation, to make it rapidly shoot like 15 grenades at once each round.

You can move exotic perks onto legendary weapons. Give a purple SMG Osteo's poison effect. Give another primary DMT's cranial spikes. Make Forbearance even more Forbearance with triple line grenades, or stick Trinary Vision on a fusion rifle instead for ludicrous damage.

People will be talking about Trials but no joke this is laser tag weekend for PvE you are a whirling maelstrom of death. Everything in the game right now is a Grandmaster Nightfall but for all the enemies instead.

When a man lies he murders some part of the world. These are the pale deaths which men miscall their lives. All this I cannot bear to witness any longer. Cannot the kingdom of salvation take me home?

I got it to work on an Ammit with just an aggressive shotgun frame. It seems to shoot to fast foe the game to pop damage numbers sometimes but I'm not sure if they are actually doing damage all the time. Also it glitched out some enemies when I tested it. Like it just wrecked their whole life bar but they didn't die but gained back say a third of their health.

Guess it's a good thing I at least got the admit to work cause I can't get another no matter how hard I try. Did manage to own the poo poo out of a master lost sector not trying with it though.

Oh, the network slogan is true -- "watch FOX and be damned for all eternity!"

Funniest thing made so far is a Sweet Sorrow that shoots the waveframe grenades from Forbearance. It doesn't work well -- they drop straight down, and have zero blast radius, but it's funny.

Aggressive shotgun Tarnation is amazing.

I managed to make a shotgun Tarnation and a shotgun Fire And Forget. Looking forward to testing those out tomorrow.

So, correct me if I'm wrong here, can you use Revision Zero to make any craftable weapon intrinsic anti-barrier?

It is kind of funny how every time they increase the TTK accidentally everyone has a blast and says how much better the game feels, to the point that they occasionally leave it that way for a while and tell everyone to just have fun. And then go on to say that TTK is an important part of the design philosophy and they can't change it.

I now have a Sweet Sorrow with Ragnhild's Aggresive shotgun frame, so it's a 720rpm infinite ammo shotgun that speeds up after kills. What a wild ride :allears:

This reminds me of late game borderlands 1 where you could use a weapon editor to create things like a sniper that shot rockets. Every once in a while the game couldn't make sense of the gun you created so it might not work, but man did it end up in chaos

edit: also look at all these fools on twitch still trying to do trials carries this weekend. you can see the rage in their eyes as they get their poo poo pushed in

So if its just those perks how are weapons like swords with two eager edge perks getting crafted? Same principle but the other perk instead?

I mostly want to solo flawless GoA and not try on the sparrow section lmao

e: Lol yep you just reshape to do it, time to play the lottery. Finally, it's time to combine the Half-Truth and the Other Half

Same process, but you can only do it one perk at a time so you have to keep doing the exploit for each single column if you want to change more than one.

E: ah you got it already lol. It's gonna be fun imo, not like I have a ton to do today anyway.

You have to do two very fast taps on different UI elements to pull it off, so I'd guess it's extremely hard if not impossible on a controller with the analog stick pushing the cursor around

If you got any kind of pc (the shittier the better) link accounts on bungie.com and do it on pc. Than switch back to console and use the weapon.

It was too far out of whack to be just a balance thing, it had a vastly better TTK that every other gun. Someone typing an extra 0 into the weapon config is still a bug, just not a code bug

Also I think it suddenly appeared after a certain patch, it hadn't been like that all along and just got discovered

so it is possible but you're limited in what you can merge since you have to be super fast and moving a cursor with an analogue stick is slow. It works best with weapons that occupy slots in the same space on the screen since you can shuffle back and forth with the shoulder buttons. I merged a Raghnild with a Come To Pass this way, others will be possible too but need to experiment a bit.

What console did you use? I was going to try it with my slow rear end launch ps4.

It was curse of Osiris launch week, and Prometheus Lens had just been released. Within hours, it was known that Prom Lens had a truly busted TTK, and they even had Xur sell it that weekend!

It was one of the big "oh wow so they literally do zero 0.000 testing sometimes haha" moments
