Hey all,
Yesterday, we announced the goal of removing time pressure associated with Glory ranks, and that Pinnacle Crucible rewards will be awarded via quests starting in Season 4.
Redrix’s Claymore will remain exclusive to Season 3. The Redrix’s Broadsword will be available through a pinnacle weapon questline in Season 4 offered by Lord Shaxx. To set expectations, here are the quest steps that must be completed in order to acquire Redrix’s Broadsword:

I'll try and get it, whereas I didn't even bother with this season's redrix. I do not generally do competitive.
I play a bit of quick play and so maybe some of these new options might work out for me. I'll give the 25 games of competitive a go, as I'll have to. If it sucks, it sucks.
If not, I'll not end up with a weapon.
I'll not cry.
I'll not get upset.
I'll be too busy with the awesome looking gambit. Cough. I hope.
Then, I'll go to sleep and won't need to get over not getting a p-choom, p-choom. We've been assured of a load of "sweet, sweet loot..."
Now, have I heard that somewhere before...
