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:

There’s a few things I take from this.
1. Redrix’s Broadsword may not be the only quest line weapon released in season 4. There could quite possibly be smaller quests released during the season.
2. The Luna’s Howl a lot of people are expecting to be the weapon you get from a glory rank grind is not the case!
I could be wrong and this might have already been cleared up somewhere else.
