Packing Heat Trophy not unlocking

So I recently upgraded my Thunderlord to 331 and the Trophy for fully upgrading and exotic weapon did not unlock. I was just wondering if the recent 1.2 patch has made it required to use etheric light to get the new damage cap of 365 for the trophy to unlock or is this a glitch? I didn't see anything about it after a quick google search, hence me making this thread.

  • Ultimately, this is the help article you want: [b][url]https://www.bungie.net/en/Help/Article/12242[/url][/b] There are some known issues with achievements/trophies not showing up. Bungie is aware of it. I would suggest that you try the troubleshooting steps mentioned at the link initially.

    • It's glitched, but you can unlock it by getting a specific exotic weapon. For me it was the Vex Mythoclast, I've heard it also unlocks with exotics that don't go up to 365. I had to fully upgrade my Vex, and then ascend it, before the achievement/trophy unlocked. Hope that helps :)

      • Is it necessary (After the Patch) to Update another exo weapon to unlock the trophy? I have two complete updated weapons and the trophy is still missing.

        • After weeks of having this problem and trying different methods the way I got it unlocked was by getting a vex from VOG, I fully upgraded then ascended and it unlocked. That's the only way you can get it unless you have a pre HOW Exotic

        • I'm having the same problem. I know my reply is a little late but I need answers. I fully upgraded MIDA Multi Tool and Hawkmoon and didn't get the achievement. I tried what the link said, no luck. Someone please help or tell me if Bungie has done anything about it.

        • I have 5 exotic weapons completely maxed out and the achievement still won't unlock for me. I've even tried everything in the link posted for troubleshooting and it won't help. Hopefully Bungie fixes this on xbone and all other consoles.

        • I've got a Bad Juju, Red Death, and Patience and Time all maxed out and I still don't have this trophy. I don't see any bubbles where a second exotic shard would be needed either. It's a menial thing that shouldn't really upset me because I already am at 365 damage on them without needing a second shard or Etheric light., but it's the principle of it to me. So yes Bungie. Please fix this lol I'm on ps3 as well.

            Hi there NOTE: This works for Xbox but I'm not sure about PS but it may still be worth a try. When an achievement won't unlock you can sometimes force It to unlock by loading up the character that you got the achievement/trophy with and then going to the in game settings and click on switch profiles instead of switch characters, then you want to reload up the same profile and character that you got the achievement/ trophy with and then it should unlock.

          • TRY THIS. I got my Packing Heat trophy to unlock after HoW by fully upgraded a Vex Mytholcast. So you will need two exotic shards to upgrade to 300 damage and then ascend to 365 damage.

          • Hello ANGRYDAMIEN666. Try switching characters by going to another character and then going back to the character that performed the achievement. If that doesn't work, log out of your PSN ID and log back in at the Destiny home screen. The trophy might pop immediately or pop later. Bungie has a support article on this topic: [b] [url=https://www.bungie.net/en/Help/Article/12242]A Trophy or an Achievement did not unlock in the game.[/url][/b]

              • This also hasn't unlocked for me. I have been playing about a month and a half. got the hawk moon to 365 and still don't have the trophy. I'm sure its just a glitch and will be fixed eventually.

              • If you hover over the materials details in the game, etheric light pops up. Even if you inspect a weapon through the app, the ascend function is there. I'd say that you need to ascend it to get the trophy.

                Same thing happened to me on Friday when upgrading Truth to 331. I went crazy because I couldn't find anything related after a google search. My understanding is that the new damage cap is already enabled with 1.2.0 patch but we can't see it ingame. However, the "Ascend" option appears in the website and the Destiny mobile app. I assume that on Tuesday when the new HoW 1.2.0.1 patch will be applied, and we'll be able to fully upgrade our exotic weapons, the trophy will eventually unlock. The exotic weapons require an additional Exotic Shard in order to "Ascend". Not Etheric light. The later is only required for ascending Legendary weapons. The log-out/log-in / switch characters workaround doesn't work in PS4. Can only be used for achievements not unlocking issues in Xbox.

              • I have the same problem. I fully upgraded the Hard Light on 5/17 and the Packing Heat trophy didn't unlock. I hope this doesn't prevent me from getting the platinum trophy for Destiny.
