Has it actually been confirmed that only hive kills grant exp, because I've had this thing a few days and its been steadily increasing, and to me it seemed like any old kill was helping as well as bounties. That cannibalism perk shouldn't even kick in until you unlock it.
-
Took a while, finally decided to let the knight spawn in and have him run around a bit before I killed him and I finally got it
-
Actually you are wrong dlc is required for hotp
-
Watch "Husk of the pit first try" on YouTube - Husk of the pit first try: http://youtu.be/3CpJH9Q7JAE

-

You need the DLC to gain a DLC specific weapon. Updated weapons are NOT DLC weapons, the [b]Husk of the Pit [i]IS[/i][/b]

Nicely said. Well done!
-
Just a nit pick, but the hard lvl for this mission is 28
-
Mine dropped after about an hour of farming the fist of Crota knight on lvl 24. A fried of mine got his on the 4th try. Just like anything else, it's all RNG. Don't beat yourselves up about not having it drop early. Throw on some music, movie on the computer, anything that will help the time pass. It'll come. _Ohuigin
-
I got it my 6th try. My buddy however is 5 hours deep and still can't get it to drop. Good old RNG Smh
-
Still havnt got it. Posting as the last several times I posted about not getting what I was looking for it dropped right after posting lol
-
How I got mine.
-
Is there's higher drop rate on the moon? Spent nearly three hours farming and killed 40-50 blades with no luck
-
I got it yesterday afternoon on earth at the divide right before you go through the canyons and river to the other side. Was randomly killing hive with venation III 2.0 hand cannon and I didn't even know I had it till I finished a patrol, went to orbit and saw a white weapon....looked at it and didn't know wat it was til I looked in the forums....pretty happy I didn't just toss it lol... so it's an auto rifle that shoots green and It has a pretty sick sight...it's gunna take awhile to upgrade it tho...it's any of yall wanna play or see it it's action add me. LacedCaine. Cheers
-
Thank you for posting this. Much appreciated.
-
I just got it about 5 minutes ago on my 31 titan.
-
Will there be a notification on the tower on the map if I get it?
-
Amazing info.. trying to spread the word on this to my in game buddies. It took me 3 tries, no black wax idol, and the first two times I shot him dead--the third time I shot him until low and finished with a knife. Coincidence? My buddy joined me and I explained why I was farming the FoC mission, and we ran it four more times for him. He used melee each time but no drop. We decided to do something else, though, so I'm not sure if he got it yet or how long it took him. Can't wait for hard raid!!
-
spent over 8 hours on fist of crota mission , straight past adds to blade knight and nothing. I have 6 friends who i raid with. They all have it, one has two and got his second in 2 runs. Wtf is going on bungie? I dont understand how all my friends can get it within 2 hours of farming and yet im left out after over 8 hours of missions and patrol kills. I have easily ran the first mission near or over 200 times now. To say im disapointed is an understatement.
-
Do you receive a quest bounty along with the drop? If so, then I suppose you need an empty bounty slot to get the gun?
-
+1 for reference.
-
Here's how to get the pit
-
only need boots and 6 shards...so hopefully next week. :) And all that without deleting and making new chars...
-
Don't listen to anyone just kill blades
-
Is Xbox One confirmed? I've only been getting silken codex....
