Brass Attacks remains unobtainable for returning Beyond Light Deluxe Edition owners (and a potential mitigation)

Hi there, Since Season of the Splicer, Brass Attacks (Sidearm) and Threaded Needle (Linear Fusion Rifle) have been unavailable for Beyond Light Deluxe Edition owners who did not unlock these Season Pass weapons during Season of the Chosen. Specifically, these weapons do not drop from the Battlegrounds activity, nor do these weapons drop from focusing Umbral Engrams in the Prismatic Recaster (their respective focused engrams do not contain these weapons, until the weapons have been unlocked). While this was confirmed to be a bug on these forums, it has not added to the list of known issues or resolved as of yet. In Season of the Lost, the 'Tools of the Chosen' engram has become available, which drops Threaded Needle in addition to the Season of the Chosen Submachine Gun and Sniper Rifle. Luckily, this also unlocks Threaded Needle for returning Beyond Light Deluxe Edition owners, as the loot pool of this focused engram does not suffer from the same unlock condition as the Season of the Chosen Engrams. In addition, receiving Threaded Needle triggers the unlock, which means Threaded Needle now also starts dropping from Battlegrounds and from Focused Umbral Engrams. Receiving a Threaded Needle from this engram thus mitigates the bugged state which returning Beyond Light Deluxe edition owners find themselves in. Yet, Brass Attacks remains unobtainable, as there is currently no unlock trigger for this weapon in the game. Based on the above, it seems that this bugged state can be mitigated by adding a new way for returning players to receive their first Brass Attacks, namely through a Focused Umbral Engram (or potentially, any vendor). In lieu of a bug fix, a short-term (temporary) mitigation could be to add Brass Attacks to the 'Tools of the Chosen' engram. Please let me know in case I can provide further details that help solving this bug. Thanks a lot in advance!

  • Ugh, I wish I would have found this post a earlier. I've been spending way too much time trying to get one. I also paid for Season of the Chosen, but was taking a break during the actual season. I think I'm on nine T2 focuses with all SMGs...

  • i can only assume after all this time the issue has been roundly ignored and forgotten about.

  • the fact this still isn't obtainable is incredibly disappointing considering I PAID for the season this weapon was a part of. Not to mention the time I spent farming for it only to learn I wouldn't get it.

  • This is terrible. I’ve literally focused 10 engrams on tier 2 and one more on tier 3 so 11 total on the Brass Attacks/ Extraordinary Rendition engram and got 11 SMG’s!!! Not a single Brass Attacks yet. So I decided to finally see what’s up with this and it seems it doesn’t drop if you didn’t unlock it on that season pass. This really is disappointing to hear. I was looking forward to trying Brass Attacks out. I hope Bungie actually figures this out or at least adds it to a loot pool somewhere when Witch Queen drops!

    • Bungie is aware of this bug it seems and hopefully the weapons will return to the loot pool soon. However it seems there are much more pressing bugs currently involving PC constantly crashing so it may be pushed towards the back of priority.
