FINALLY. after several sweaty and heart wrenching attempts, I COMPLETED IMPRECATION !!
**if you read this, thanks !! 100 grimoire awarded**
•Location: Firebase Delphi
•Mode: Clash
There I was, using my gunslinger hunter and a hawksaw... frustrated at everyone using either Hard light or Doctrine, I decided to test out Imprecation and seek precision kills.
The first few were back to back, after a few deaths I gain momentum by 2 golden gun kills followed by two more headshots!
with 3 minutes left I quickly glance to see how many I have obtained so far. (5/7 precision kills)
I GOT EXCITED. OVERWHELMINGLY ANXIOUS TO GET THE NEXT TWO KILLS. It felt like a lifetime before I had my next headshot. I get it and with just 1 left !!! the time was 0:45 seconds left AND IT WAS FLYING BY...
After sliding around a corner I spot a enemy hunter
(luckily he's using a scout and I caught him when he had to reload)
I MASH ON THE TRIGGER AND I GET BODY SHOT then another BODY SHOT
THEN I AIM UP and I hit the wall behind him -_-
6 seconds before the match is over.. adrenaline is pouring in and I can't stop shaking to get my thumb straight, finally... I aim down sights and BOOM!
Nail in the coffin, match is over, QUEST ADVANCED!!!!! arms day here I come, to pick up my first curse!!
[spoiler]seriously if you read all this, it means a lot and if it were me, just skim it [/spoiler]
edit: TRENDING!!! So cool!! I love this community , thank you all for the time you spent reading my story and giving me pointers ! side note::: if anyone is on Xbox One and wants to raid or do challenge of the elders or just wants to hang out in some crucible matches, add me ! " Th4 GovN4 "

10 RisposteHey remember me? I got the Thorn quest yesterday. The hardest part is gonna be getting void kills in the crucible.
-
Congrats man have fun using it I need it tbh
-
Got mine legit without boosting. A royal pain for what you're rewarded with. Still I'll pull out the first curse once I awhile just because of what I went through to get it.
-
6 Rispostehey wanna do doubles sometime?
-
Am I the only person that literally joined one random control game and completed it on the first try? Lol Not trying to be douchie but I am by no means a pvp pro.. I just see so much grief surrounding this quest and I literally competed it the first random game I joined. There should be a special medal :) Either way congrats.. First curse can be one of my favorite guns. Sometimes I love it, sometimes I hate it.

4 RisposteOr you could have waited 2 weeks for private matches and not had to sweat it lol

1 RispondiModificato da SnakePayne86: 9/10/2016 6:03:13 AMI remember the game I did it on too because that gun sucked. I didn't bother using anything other than the gun, no super, no nades, no melee, nothing. I just ran into every gunfight shooting. Finished with like 10 kills and 25 deaths but it was fun.

13 RisposteModificato da zxionisus: 9/7/2016 10:31:40 PM80% of everyone who has First Curse boosted to get it. It's not in any way anecdotal. It's perfectly factual. Look it up on the interwebs. Deej boosted to get it, but still couldn't get it. That's how hard it is. Fact. It's so difficult to obtain that if it were a fusion rifle, people would say to buff it. I know, crazy. When Cosmo hears the word "imprecation", he curls up into the fetal position, sucks on a legendary pacifier and cries uncontrollably. That's what it does to people. Alas, I feel compelled to supplement this post to clarify a potential misconception. You see, most of you (and by most of you, I mean 85.4%) have the illegitimately conceived notion that your quest to obtain imprecation was equal to that of the original quest. I laugh. Ha ha. Hahahahaha. Ha. Not all imprecation quests are created equal. Yawn. Let me tell you of the original imprecation. Please, sit down. The original imprecation was a gun, nay, an origami replica of a gun made from papyrus and mother's milk. It had 6 projectiles made of styrofoam housed in a mechanism one would compare to a rubber band and a finger. By virtue of this very mechanism, one would pull back the elastic band and release the styrofoam nub, causing it to float in the air in a fashion akin to a baby warlock learning to glide - clumsy, yet gentle, slow and soft. Upon reaching its destination 2 feet away (for this is the range of the original imprecation) it would tenderly kiss the cheek of the opposing guardian. That is to say, if it was fortunate to discover a cheek 5 feet wide by 5 feet high standing immobile for at least 30 seconds, it would therefore kiss the opposing warrior on said fleshy part, thereby leaving him or her in a completely unchanged state. Upon seeing the lack of damage, the instigating guardian would immediately snap to a sniper, no-scope the enemy to the body, revert to the impish imprecation and sling 5 more projectiles rapidly (i.e. one shot every 2 seconds) at the still unsuspecting foe. If one was fortunate in the endeavor, he would have been aided by the additional shots of a fireteam member using The Last Word or some such, at which point the last hush of imprecation's foam dart would strike true and down the offending guardian. Such is the tale of the original imprecation. Therefore, let us not bandy frivolous words about the ease of the way when one knows not the challenge of the original imprecation. Rather, let us simply delight in the first line of the sonnet, "The Rose and the Thorn", from the immaculate guardian: "Quoth the delicate flower intertwined with love's first glance, eyes not encumbered with wisdom's last dance, yet shall we dream of a dream to be, of imprecation's quest and the guardian's greed?"

1 RispondiI did mine on my first game. I don't know what's so hard about it.
-
1 RispondiThe first curse is a beastmode gun, you can even 2-shot some people. Have fun ;)
-
1 RispondiSign if read "impregnation complete"
-
1 RispondiGood job. I know it's a bit late for advice now but rumble would have been a better option for the precision kills. More people to shoot at and also less potential for your kill getting stolen by someone else.
-
I know that feeling all two well man as someone who was never good at crucible in year 1 getting the thorn quest done on my hunter was the best feeling I ever had in crucible and remember vividly the game when I finally got the crucible part of it done
-
Be glad you beat it recently and not back in November the quest was a little harder and first curse was well...... Underwhelming. But now it's pretty good
-
Modificato da eXXz: 9/9/2016 4:38:56 AMDid mine about 9 months ago in one game of control. Didnt really understand the big deal bout it 7 headshots one gm. I mean aim down sights for heads Two shots Dead One shot if you steal a kill Lol When i finally got First Curse Disappointing, and is not good HC at all Its like near the bottom of my HC list right above Zaoule
-
4 RisposteWell done, this seems impossible to me I can't get more than about 3 or 4 kills with the stupid gun... I'm usually dead before I fire a second shot 😛
-
1 RispondiI feel you. I was expecting something like that because I am not a great shot, especially with handcannons which requires better timing. But I got extremely lucky and found myself in a control game full of noobs on my second attempt at getting it. I also feel like I didn't get the full kills, is it possible this counts if you headshot someone and someone else on your team actually gets the kill? Maybe I was just under counting. It was a while ago.

6 RisposteWhat's imprecation again?
-
BUMPITY BUMP FOR TFC

1 RispondiModificato da SargentSQLer: 9/8/2016 3:40:22 PMCongrats! I remember getting the pvp in the bag on this! It feels great! If I see people using imprecation I usually try to find them and give them a few freebies
-
6 RisposteDoes anyone know if I have to get a 7 kill streak (not headshot streak) with only my stupid white hand cannon they give me? It's really irritating am I allowed to kill with my secondary and grenades too?
-
To those of you having trouble with the precision kills Go into a longer game mode like control OR inferno. Objective based modes will let you predict and plan for where the enemy will be, inferno will let you completely take people by surprise I got mine done I. Rift because I knew the enemy would be coming for the spark, and the matches tend to go longer. Don't give up guardians! I'm a scrublord and I managed to get it!
-
Same. Felt like a lifetime of trying to get it then one game boom. 7 kills straight away. Couldn't beleive it
-
It literally took me two Crucible sessions to get 7 head shot kills. You guys make me look good... Good Job OP :)
-
3 RisposteYour post inspired me to crack on with the quest last night, took me about two hours but I finally cracked it bang on midnight. Not only that but had to do it the hard way. Feels so satisfying to finally have made it, just gotta wait now to collect
-
1 RispondiCongrats on completion tried to run mine in ffa along with sword kills but focused on sword kills anyway (couldn't get the head shots and sword kills at same time)
