Just a couple of quick questions cause I wanna know more about these since all I know is that they’re made by the hive and can kill a ghost.
Do they work on the lucent hive ghosts?
If they can sever the bond between a guardian and the light/traveler, then how are they allowed in crucible?
Can we somehow get a bullet of sorrow into a weapon (sniper rifle, linear fusion) and use it against our enemies? (sounds like a good weapon idea)
Since our guardians hands shake whenever we wield malfeasance, then does it have the [i]potential[/i] to become a weapon of sorrow?
How exactly does necrotic grips synergise with any weapon of sorrow? Was the lore in the grips talking about studying the weapons of sorrow, or is it more deeper then that?

2 RepliesOur hands shake when we are holding Malfaescense? I never noticed this

7 RepliesNo. Likely because it requires extra coding that bungie didn't want to do. Most weapons of sorrow are copies and not the original. For instance, only the OG thorn could permanently kill guardians. This was the weapon which was later transformed into lumina. Yes thorn bolts can be used in other weapons. Actually part of the original malfeasance quest, we witnessed a shadow of yor use a thron bolt as a dagger to kill his ghost. Also the scorn sniper Barron used thorn bolts in his crossbow, which is how he kill caydes ghost. Malfeasance isn't a weapon of sorrow, because WOS feed on light and are sort of alive. Malfeasance basically fills enemies with corruption/blight energy/darkness, until they explode. The purpose was to show guardians that its okay to use darkness to fight darkness. Yes necrotic grips lore does explain its connection to thorn. I want to say it's made with an artifact that belonged to Yor, or it was flesh tainted by thorn corruption. It's been a while since I've read the lore.

[quote]Do they work on the lucent hive ghosts?[/quote] I’d assume yes, since the Lucent Brood’s ghosts are the same as our ghosts with scarier shells. [quote]If they can sever the bond between a guardian and the light/traveler, then how are they allowed in crucible?[/quote] Only the original Thorn could do that. Ours is a replica. [quote]Can we somehow get a bullet of sorrow into a weapon (sniper rifle, linear fusion) and use it against our enemies? (sounds like a good weapon idea)[/quote] I’ve often heard that Pirrah, the Rifleman, used a Thorn bullet to kill Cayde. I have not read any lore about this but I’ll take the forum’s word for it. [quote]Since our guardians hands shake whenever we wield malfeasance, then does it have the [i]potential[/i] to become a weapon of sorrow?[/quote] Don’t know much about Malfeasance as I’ve yet to finish that quest.

2 RepliesI thought i remembered hearing that crucible was a simulation, but can’t find anything to back it up. The most i found was that the vaulted destinations that still have maps are simulated (and so is the lighthouse). It makes sense to me though, it explains how shaxx is able to comment on all different crucible games. Also there was a lore entry somewhere where shaxx and someone else were watching a crucible match and shaxx was talking about how a guardian would be the next savior of the vanguard or something. The way it was phrases made it sound like they were watching a screen. If this is so then it makes sense why weapons of sorrow are allowed, since they’re not real, and also why you can cut someone in half with a sword and they don’t bleed.
