Here is my theory on the crux of Crota and remember this is [u][b]purely speculation.[/b][/u]
my theory is based on the name Crux of crota and the eris item Embalming orb and this may be a long shot but looking at the definition of both Crux and embalm leads me to believe that the embalming orb will preserve the [u]Heart/essence/core[/u] of crota so maybe if you have an embalming orb in your inventory when you beat him it will become the Crux of Crota . please comment and i will test this tonight.

Edited by electroplasm: 1/26/2015 3:56:23 AMeh...not in the current loot table. i think deej was just using pr speak. it'll probably be available with the next patch...like the helmet...remember? the gatekeepeer doesn't drop the crux either, btw.
-
I imagine it has a similar drop rate as the Vex. Could be slightly more rare not too sure on that.

Or better yet, go the proven path and beat Crota over and over again as the crux drops regardless if you've got the loot for that week or not. You have a 0% chance if you don't have glowhoo yet but once that char gets it then you can get the crux.
-
NO. You need eidolon ally with the Burgeoning Hunger upgrade UNLOCKED, but not purchased and you need to beat crota on hard MORE THAN ONCE with eidolon ally equipped. Just theorizing, though
-
My theory is you have to beat it on a character who has beaten Hard Crota at least once before (to prevent day 1 Necrochasms...make it rarer...)
-
i went on destiny tracker and looked up veroli and oskyllao but they are rank 1 and 0 at eris so they are testers or hackers and look at the damage of the necrochasm they both have it fully maxed out but one is 339 and the other is 356 and veroli is level 29

[quote]You need to have the Ally equipped in your primary spot while wearing a jack-o-lyte with the embalming orb in the 13th spot in your inventory right next to your black wax idols(can be before or after, doesn't matter) of which you must have exactly 47. Then you need to enter Crota's raid on hard mode and solo up until the bridge then have 2 friends join your fireteam. The two friends must be a defender Titan and a gunslinger hunter (you can be any class, obviously). Then they have to die as you solo the bridge, once you're done with the bridge make sure they leave your fireteam before jumping down the hole. After that it's just a normal solo hard mode run, just make sure that whenever you take down Crota's shield the last hit is always with your ally. Happy hunting :)[/quote]

-
Look up a player named oSkyllao. His Warlock has it.
-
It's probably like the helmet. They held it back at first so everyone wouldn't get it right away.
-
http://www.bungie.net/en/Legend/1/4611686018430455360/2305843009217958569#gear proof that it has dropped. Must be extremely rare
-
Guys some lvl 30 has it I forgot his damn name something like volinia or volius he has it maxed to wich is odd
-
Veroli has it, look him up

Edited by ShizRizGrizDiz: 1/24/2015 9:12:44 AMGratz man. I figured this theory Day 1. I added all that together. But for me, it first started with noticing the Crux and Embalming are the same picture. Then i went on looking up what Embalming Meant then even what Crux meant and so forth. I was hoping no one else would speculate this and post it though so i could be the first to test out and see if it was true....i even sent DeeJ a msg to see if this was true, unfortunately no reply. Here, ill copy paste what i said. [quote].Greetings Community Manager DeeJ. A lot of players are curious about the Crux of Crota. But i believe i figured it out. The Crux isnt a loot drop like the Vex Mythoclast, as the Crux is never stated that it actually drops and that it is only "obtained." Now, how is the Crux obtained? Simple. You guys implemented a puzzle didnt you? I researched my self on this matter and came up with this. The picture of the Crux is the same as the embalming orb. Embalming means to preserve. So its the Orb of Preservation right? Crux means the central point, and synonyms relating are like Heart or Essence. So my theory is that the Crux is only "obtained" by killing Crota on hard mode while holding an Embalming Orb in your inventory. By killing him, you drain him of his energy and preserve it into the orb and therefore transforming it into the Crux and therefore holding the "Essence of Crota." Thats why no one has yet to prove it as a drop? Because it doesnt drop. You obtain it through these means dont you? [/quote] And Bungie just doesnt name things like this for no reason. And its a little odd how to upgrade both weapons require items of the same picture? Also, Eris is holding the Crux! XD
-
This is an extremely rare drop and isn't gonna pop like candy no matter what you equip.
-
Maybe it has something to do with the gatekeeper. I am pretty sure nobody killed one and defeated Crota in one run
-
Pretty reasonable theory, ignore the trolls!
-
Please continue to pull shit theories out your arse.

This guy has got it maxed out 356dmg!! ermahgahd! [url]http://www.bungie.net/en/Legend/1/4611686018430455360/2305843009217958569#gear[/url]

lol at people coming up with elaborate theories you really think bungie put the effort to make this gun unique to gain considering the only difference from the normal and hard raid are like an extra wizard n gatekeeper and more yellow bars i just think they held back with the crux for a week so they can clean out any cheeses because they dont want the same thing to happen to the crux as the vex
-
People have all these different theorys on why it won't drop it's just broken look at what deej said on reddit, bungie will be fixing it soon don't worry
-
I think you need to have eidolon ally equipped for the crux to drop. Kind of lime how you need a weapon equipped for it to receive experience
