I don't mind the strike its difficult but not that bad once you figure it out. What I have a hard time with is that you need 100 tokens to upgrade the gun and only get 1 per raid encounter. That's a crazy grind, not worth doing the raid that many times just to finish the upgrade quest.
One? Ain't every token you gather in the raid counts?
Also, do previous tokens adds up to this part of the quest or it's ignoring all the tokens you got prior to unlocking this step?
They are called Emperor Seals I think. His-Highness Seals or something like that. You get 5 for opening a door to an encounter and 13 for beating an encounter. Even though it says those are the values you are getting, when you check the quest it only gives you 1 each. It's glitched like the other guy said. And until you get 100 seals the gun has 1 perk, 1 round in the chamber, and 6 in reserve. Once you collect the 100 seals you get the other perks and an extra round in the chamber. After that the next step is to beat the prestige mode of the raid. No one knows what becomes of the gun after that because prestige mode isn't out yet. I know this only because of Datto. I'm still on the seals part myself.
It's not tokens, they're a different set of stackable items you get for finishing raid bosses. It's supposed to be glitched from this point forward as well. I'll know tomorrow though. The strike to get the gun can be hard if you make it that way, but I can tell you the easiest way to beat it in 1 try.
The gun is awesome, but insanely slow and only hold 1 in the chamber and 5 in reserve.
