[b]Q: Is there an easy method.[/b]
[i]A: It all trickles down to RNG, you can spend 4 minutes to 4 hours. The best method is through the "First of Crota" Mission on Earth. You bypass the enemies in the beginning and kill the Blade of Crota that spawns. Return to orbit if you have not received it, Rinse & Repeat.[/i]

Edited by Smith5084: 12/18/2014 2:31:03 AMSpent two hours chasing it, finally said screw it... Can't turn it into the exotic for at least several weeks anyway, and I don't use auto rifles much anyway... Just something else to take up space in the vault. It'll drop eventually. RNG has hated me since the beginning... Don't even know why I thought that this time would be any different.
-
I got this today. It's pretty interesting.
-
Confirmed! Best way to get this gun. I got it within the hour
-
Got it today! :)
-
Nice post. I spent three hours straight and killed the Knight hundreds of times and nothing dropped. This game is rarely good to me.
-
100 attempts later...still no Husk. FML.
-
I just got it, I am a level 6 titan. When I get to level 10 I will equip it!
-
Thanks! The "you don't need the DLC" answered my question. I was wondering if you needed to complete the urn mission.
-
Took about 35 tries, thank you.
-
10/10 would buy again - IGN
-
I didn't keep count but I must have killed somewhere near 100 Blades of Crota. Maybe more. Started at the caves at Skywatch killed maybe 20 there, then switched over to Fist of Crota mission and killed god knows how many there. Went back to Skywatch again out of frustration and killed a few more, then finally back to Fist of Crota and killed about 5 and it finally dropped. Was starting to think my character was bugged or something. All I can say to those with similar bad luck is keep at it.
-
I got it :D
-
So I've been doing this for five hours. Still haven't gotten the Husk. Any tips, or am I cursed?
-
Edited by CheLime: 12/18/2014 12:42:25 AMJUST GOT MINE :D after........... 80 something runs................
-
Great post. Good man!
-
Got mine after 4 hours, 2 minutes for each kill; didn't find any shortcut, but i can say that the knight has about a 20% chance to give an extra loot (not on the ground, but directly in your inventory like in raid): this extra loot is usually a black wax idol, but i think it has the chance to be the Husk. In addition, if u are in a party and your m8 drops it, u can still find nothing (no shared loot). The necrochasm seems a lot of work for a future exotic fragment (it's hard to find something that can replace the icebreaker yellow spot), but i hope to see more stuff like this, maybe rare mob spawns with special drops (ghost skin where are u?)
-
I got lucky and got it in like 10 tries. There is absolutely no special way to do it. Just kill the blade
-
Thanks :)
-
Got mine first time looking for it, cosmodrome. Black wax & swordbreaker equipped. From orbit straight through to skywatch. Only stopped to kill fist of crota. Dropped from a swordbearer. Good luck
-
You need to be level ten to use it! Other then that thank you for clearing up a lot of crap!
-
Gotta admit, they were a bit lazy with it lol Aside from the grip and the function, it's practically identical to Murmur
-
Do you need Eris rank 1?
-
-blam!- y'all for tellin the world
-
Just got it. About 15 attempts. Got it like raid gear!
-
Can u only get one ?
-
I have gotten it twice in a row from the small cave to the right after you land in the Cosmodrome on patrol.
