I'm not sure about the exact details on this, but I know that dismantling a khvostov isn't the only way to get the schematic.[/i] ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- How it's acquired: First you must dismantle a khvostov to start the quest. You'll get a khvostov 7g schematic. You'll be prompted to talk to the exo guy (forgot his name) and he'll tell you that you need 10 manual pages and 3 parts. The manual pages are easy. You just kill fallen or siva fallen on the plague lands patrol and they'll eventually drop. The parts are the hard part (pun intended). As soon as you spawn in, head to the right. https://mobile.twitter.com/imsocoled/status/778265848943218688 Go through that doorway until you get to foundry 113. Go to the left until you see this doorway. https://mobile.twitter.com/imsocoled/status/778266496539594752 Follow this pathway until you get to the rocketyard, and then go towards where you would for the sepiks strike. Go past where you wait for the lasers to be decrypted. https://mobile.twitter.com/imsocoled/status/778268093822799872 The part is right where the crosshair is pointing. If it's not there it's here. https://mobile.twitter.com/imsocoled/status/778268901075394560 The next one is in the blast, where the walker is. https://mobile.twitter.com/imsocoled/status/778269757900402688 The part is right by that dead vandal. After you get this one head back to dock 13 and it's under the staircase through that doorway. https://mobile.twitter.com/imsocoled/status/778270807826976769 After you collect this one you'll be told to go talk to the exo guy. He'll tell you to do a mission on earth called khvostov rising. Do it and you have your auto scout pulse rifle. Edit: sucks in crucible due to the damage staying the same across all fire modes. Only viable one is the fully automatic version. Edit II: Redacted Edit III: moved edit II to the top Edit IV: Credit goes to AllSeeingRoque for this - [quote]Also instead of brood mothers, you're guaranteed to find it at the ketch where literally we first started Destiny... you know... where your ghost first found you. Kill the boss there and collect from the chest. I've helped 3 people get it this way/ way simpler than hoping RNG gives it. Great post though! I hope they don't NERF this gun.[/quote][/quote]
