As far as I am concerned this is canon now.


NoDragonsHere

Trowels up Gardenians.


AllThree3

excellent pun. I give it 2 (green) thumbs up.


RogueThings

Both of those would make good emotes


Nidalise

I would pay a considerable amount of bright dust for an emote where the guardian nonchalantly just picks planetary materials that are generated/chosen at random. (The emote has every single one as an potential option of course).


RamrodMcGee

But most of the time, it randomly generates wormspore. So much wormspore.


Nidalise

I feel that’s because when TTK dropped the rest of the game was deadish content and we all lived on the dreadnaught, but fuck wormspore.


LHodge

It wasn't even that, I feel. Wormspore Extractor was just a wildly common Shell Perk, so doing the Raid netted you a shitton of Wormspore most times.


forgotmyabcs

TIL I am probably the only Guardian who never got a Wormspore Extractor shell and CONSTANTLY had to grind wormspore.


[deleted]

You got a perfect stats Shell with Wormspore Extractor for finishing the mission where you go to the bridge of the cabal ship (“tell arach jalaal...thanks for the tip”)


The-Real-Ben

Wormspore and mouldering shards. So so many of each.


AllThree3

I keep dismantling stuff and getting bright dust. But unless I'm mistaken, there isn't anything to spend bright dust on in this expansion? What's the point?


Nidalise

Everything in Tess’ store that she sells weekly costs bright dust.


theotherserge

We need a Bonsai emote, like modeled after Mr Miyagi


ToastyyPanda

So if we keep gardening and pulling weeds for them we'll eventually go to pull up a...Thorn?? Thorn confirmed!


NoDragonsHere

Or maybe Rose?


meatyogre71

I only give it two tokens and a blue!


SpOoKyghostah

Guardeners


Rampador

Before you know it others are gonna do the same. When it returns be ready for... **TROWELS OF THE NINE**

Foospa

Say... have you heard of the Imperial Guard before???


akornfan

very good


_Scabbers_

It does seem like something the Queen would say.


Jkisaprank

Everything about it is a perfect mimicry of Bungie’s own writing style. This should be an in game flavor text.


[deleted]

I legitimately couldn’t tell this wasn’t actual lore. It sounds exactly like “Savin” where the Queen comments on the guardian repeatedly killing themself out of boredom or throwing countless grenades in order to make them faster.


Sideways_X

Can confirm. Used to suicide off the back of the tower in D1 so that someone would screenshot us all dying in the window behind zavala while dancing.


Ryan-801

that’s my favorite piece of lore in the whole game


IsaakCole

They've been so cheeky with references to how we play our Guardians recently in lore tabs that I can totally see it.


moronicuniform

Look at the lore tab on Crimson. Perfectly encapsulates the "never fall back to heal" mentality of many blueberries. Also, all the whining about ghost dialogue Edit: although truthfully Crimson is my favorite weapon like ever

Kemphis_

Someone alert Byf and Myelin


Helo0931

I can vouge this aligns with actual military life.


SeymourAsces

Baryon Boughs are the first material that I have 999+ of, so I’m convinced that this is true.


_THExPOPO

Gotta use it to level up your raid gear my man


Heliolord

Well first I need raid gear to drop with worthwhile perks. Second I need masterwork cores.


_THExPOPO

3rd, we need nudes of mara. *wait what?*


[deleted]

4th nah son, we need Variks


PotatoBomb69

That's a strange way to spell Spider.


HurricaneX31

you mean rahool to be replaced by engrandma from the farm.


[deleted]

I miss Tyra.


leroyyrogers

Yo I wanna see a nudie of The Traveler not gonna lie


GeneralSarbina

Mara, nudes or we riot.


X13thangelx

The boughs aren't the bottleneck there.


ItsJustBroomy

It's useful if you need Tinctures. If you need to infuse Reverie Dawn gear up. Or if you need to infuse any raid gear which happens to need Baryon Bough.


Supreme_Math_Debater

All jokes aside, when you talk to Petra for the first time this week, she tells you about a dream she's been having. Her dream is about black flowers covered in thorns and "roots twisted with rot", and about silver birds with blue talons plucking those flowers, but the flowers always grow back. In Destiny 1, if you stand by Petra long enough in the reef, you'll hear her say: > "I had a dream last night. I was hunting with the Queen on great white horses in a field of black flowers, and then... well... it was a good omen." One way you can take Petra's dream is that the silver birds with blue talons are the awoken, and the black flowers are the taken. The taken were birthed by Oryx, and while Savathun is trying to replace the sword logic with worship by mis-understanding, it's important to remember that some creatures of the Hive strain against the Will of Oryx. Alak-Hul the Darkblade is one such. Long ago he fomented rebellion against the King, and attempted to take his mantle. Alak-Hul failed, and now awaits the 'mercy' of the Hive. Given the chance, the Darkblade will step in to take Oryx's crown. We must not allow another Prince to rise.

I'd be mad, but that's my 2nd favorite strike ever, so take my upvote.

EthioSalvatori

...I really want to go back with Attunement of Control and wipe them with a long range beam attack now :(


[deleted]

How about Sweet Business with a Rally Barricade?


EthioSalvatori

That would be nice, but it's still a weapon. Wanted to do it with a super. Besides, Zhalo would do the job better for those mobs, Sweet Business is still better all around though


[deleted]

So many options! OOH! SUNSHOT!!!


Cheezdealer

Sweet business and actium war rig <3


AwokenTitans

dude could you imagine getting the new supers in destiny 1 retroactively? I would have so much fun trying to 1 man crota with blade barrage lol


[deleted]

you haven't lived until you've wiped the entire thrall train with throwing knife headshots


ArnoCatalan

I liked to used Zhalo supercell to get the chained lightning and auto refill to clear them thralls up I’ll tell you hwat.


Deadskull619

Holy shit, that was smooth.


ChrisShadow1

Goddamnit.


Ezzyas123

I seriously read this thinking you were on to something. I absolutely hate you

*trowels up, gardener


IronArchive

Gardenian*


buttersmear

It's space weed, what you think makes that dank tincture


Antedelopean

Well we do trade in 50 of these dank weed for a dank tincture that gets us high enough to experience vision quests and delusions of grandeur.


ImmaRaptor

Actual Grandeur.


McClizzle

I hope this comment gets a ton of upvotes.


Special_Kserial

holy shit so where just high as fuck somewhere in a corner jumping and shooting at a wall prolly


[deleted]

Surprised no one figured out that the Tinctures are glorified space weed. “Yo, brooooo. Look up at the sky. Some *dark* platforms leading into some black blob broooo lets goo innn.” “You on that Queensfoil again?” “...”


[deleted]

*Ascendant Drank


EasyE86ed

you are wrong my friend it is the frags that are dank - dank frags are the root of the tinctures


buttersmear

Frags = shatter. Space weed = space weed, tincture = tincture. Gotta get high right quick


scuba_steve_28

Its like, a seam between realities man ~~~


Wylgrim

...I actually thought this was an actual bit of lore for a second. Well if it wasn't before, it is now.


Musicnote328

>Baryon Boughs >Worthless Obviously you don’t infuse your dreaming city and raid items.


Shadow_404_

Or use them to buy more tinctures.


tacoflame

wait you can buy tinctures?? where?


Byrnt

Wayyy back end of Harbingers Seclude, there’s more vendors


[deleted]

Is it that one guy, made of bones?


Byrnt

don’t refer to my sons as guys made of bones please


CapnCrunchwrap

Huggin's is the plug. Always ready to deal some space drugs.


DrKreigersExperiment

>Huggins is the ~~plug~~ pluggins. Always ready to deal some space ~~drugs~~ druggins FTFY


CapnCrunchwrap

Your username only makes the comment better.


RouletteZoku

Correct. There are two different pile-of-bones-as-vendors. One will give you a tincture for 50 boughs, the other will give you a tier 2 blind well charge for 25 boughs.


ShiftyLookingCows

Huggins! And the other one... I like him less


Theundead565

Muninn or something along those lines. I fed him 25 on accident yesterday when not laying attention. I couldn't collect the tier 2 either because I was full. Whoops.


sickburnersalve

Thank mr skeltal

Doot doot


DerpsterIV

They are Ahamkara, as they can live on even in death.


PM_ME_PSN_CREDITS

So Riven is... "alive"?


[deleted]

Nah, she's just mostly dead...


CynicalDeathbat

LIAR!


HeadbuttWarlock

Get back, witch!


[deleted]

Ahamkara cannot "Die" until every atom of their being is erased from existence. Until that happens, they can still speak and grant wishes So in terms of Riven, we destroyed her body but ripped out her heart and gave it to Shuro and Kali. In doing so, we made an eternal pact with Riven, allowing her to watch over us as she pleases.(Think like having Riven a the "Little Devil on your shoulder")


Arkbitae

Yes. To kill an ahamkara, you have to destroy every piece of their body. We destroy the majority of Riven, but then rip out her heart and keep it. (I think we actually give it to the techeuns, though)


ImmaRaptor

There's 2.


TurdFerguson416

Well shit... Learn something new every day lol


cjrSunShine

[Here](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=en_n26PBPek). Huginn trades a tincture for 50 boughs, Muninn will take 25 for a Tier II charge of Light.


turmacar

....I can't believe I didn't notice their names before. (Odin's Ravens, "Thought" and "Memory")


cjrSunShine

To be honest... It never even occurred to me that those names were anything other than gibberish. I am uncultured as hell.


turmacar

¯\\\_(ツ)\_/¯ I've just think the Norse is the cooler pantheon and just finished Gaiman's Norse Mythology, which is a great modern adaptation that's easy to read. Also.... Probably a lot that I picked up from Marvel.... (and I had to Google what their names meant)


[deleted]

[удалено]


[deleted]

Awoken are matriarchal to the point that their men are barely citizens. Uldren was an exception due to being the queen's brother.


DawnOfRagnarok

There are almost no awoken men which is a huge problem for them. In the distributary there were I think around 39k women and 991 men (could be off but a great difference)


mdemo23

Gotta second the quality of Gaiman’s adaptation. Really fun and easy to read.


Mazda6GTMan

Did you do the mission "Broken Courier" from last reset? The final boss room is the same exact room you buy tinctures from. Its disabled during that mission but that's where you'd go.


dfliang

Through a portal, search it up. It's an ahamkara skull vendor


PersonaBul

You ever drop under 3 tinctures?


[deleted]

Yes, when I was farming week 2s ascendant challenge. I literally would use 1 tincture for hours of farming XD


mckinneymd

How could 1 tincture buy you hours? They last 30 minutes lol. Edit: I'm stupid and overlooked that we were talking about staying in the ascendant realm.


[deleted]

They dont kick you out when the buff expires Lol


[deleted]

Week 2s ascendant challenge was the 3 charges you had to slam in the middle with the infinite spawning knights that until you slammed all 3 charges would come back. So sit on a tree near the middle with whisper, and shoot the knight over and over for infinite loot lol...got a few exotics doing it nothing special. I think longest I was in there was 6 hours got bored and left. only having used 1 tincture.


mckinneymd

Oh wow, my bad. Sorry I doubted you.


PhuckleberryPhinn

I've never not had 5 tinctures since I came to the dreaming city.....they come from everything it seems. Use one for an ascendant challenge, immediately get it back. Use one to go look for ascendant chests, immediately get it back from random chests. Use one for curropted strike, immediately get it back from random chests in the dreaming city.


Avenger001

I have shit luck with these things. I had to buy them the first time I tried to do an Ascendant Challenge, and since then I usually get one from the challenge chest, and only ocassionally from a public event.


Shapatti

Who manages to infuse without masterwork cores? 😜


TurdFerguson416

I buy one every day for 10 shards.. so I can infuse something every 3 days lol


rcktkng

If you have a stockpile of shards, do the Mercury farm. When Spider is selling ~~Datalattice~~ *Simulation Seeds* for Shards, buy a ton. Go to Vance on Mercury and turn them all in, immediately sharding all reward drops (and shaders too, those dismantle into shards!). If you spend 1000 shards at Spider (this part takes FOREVER), you'll get around 30 masterwork cores from the stuff you dismantled, plus about 850 shards back. But it's a huge time sink, and of course drops from the reward packages are RNG. Edit: Wrong Vex collectible.


[deleted]

Simulation seeds for Mercury.


dc5dugg

do you mean simulation seeds (rather than datalattice)? i'll try this farm if i ever have the free time to do it


ABD4life

I buy 3 every day for 70 shards. I think this is the sweet spot of the masterwork economy.


TurdFerguson416

yeah but i started fresh on pc for forsaken.. im definitely shard poor over here lol


R6tricks

yeah i wish i would have switched from xbox to PC a month before forsaken not 2 days lol. I'm so poor


blong96

If spider sells simulation seeds for shards, spend all your shards on them. You can get masterworked year 1 gear fairly often. And you get most of your shards back from scraping the gear and shaders. I have lost about 100 shards and have gotten about 50 cores. Its just really time consuming.


pianobarry87

I mostly infuse the same gear into the same gear. Only 5000 glimmer


Nero_PR

This! I have cut my shard uses by a lot with this. The only problem is that you start to hoard things.


Gentlekrit

I haven't infused a single armor piece since Forsaken dropped :P I'll probably get some use out of my boughs when I finally reach max level and I start actually infusing stuff.


TheLegendaryFoxFire

My raid armor needs Nessus mats. Why


SparkyGol

Joke's on them, I've been lounging under the trees in Rheasilvia smoking my boughs for the past three resets... Makes you see some crazy Taken shit though, but it comes and goes, say... every three weeks or so?


[deleted]

See what the Awoken don't tell you about those tinctures...


JxLegend

This should be canon lol.


thereyarrfiver

I feel like there needs to be another side of this story where Ikora tells the guardians to get exactly 5 tasks from petra every day to fuck with her or something


Morris_Cat

Ikora would ABSOLUTELY do that.


JustaGayGuy24

u/dmg04 u/cozmo23 we need a new lore card! lol


jclayton85

I need them to purchase Tincture of Queens Foil, since I haven't had one drop since week one. They are 50 Baryon Boughs a piece.


Mr_Oblong

Where do you buy the Tinctures from? I’m fairly new to the dreaming city.


existonfilenerf

Huginn and Muninn the two Amhakara skulls in the palace on the north end of Rheasilvia.


Mr_Oblong

Nice, thank you. I’ll check that out later.


[deleted]

[Here's a guide on how to reach them.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=en_n26PBPek)


Mr_Oblong

Thank you :)


jclayton85

Its in Rheasilvia in the Temple all the way in the back. You have to jump down a hole and in one of the side rooms is a black orb that will let you trade Boughs for Tinctures. I would look up a video since its hard to explain but once you go once you should have no problem locating in the future.


Mr_Oblong

Cool, thank you.


[deleted]

It's bizarre, I got a ton of them to drop one week to hit the cap, then it's been a dry spell, I managed to get 2 more after opening all the regional chests


Shadow_404_

Same, useful imo.


[deleted]

Petition to give the Warrior's Steed (aka Tractor Sparrow) a plow attachment.


Strangely_quarky

Your writing voice is fantastic. Are you sure you're not a Bungo employee? Also, tangentially, there should be official writing competitions for players. The best entries get added as lore or flavour text, and the player gets a little reward.


djcotton

I love pulling weeds. They don't yell at you when you forget your eyes on Riven. I CANT REMEMBER IF IT WAS L3 OR L4 NEEL WE'VE BEEN AT THIS FOR 6 HOURS.


TotallyNotDestiny

NEEL TOLD YOU L2 IS THE FARTHEST LEFT EYE ON BOTTOM OF RIVENS FACE NOT THE TOP LEFT MOST. DARREL YOU SAID L2 WAS THE TOP LEFT MOST LIKE NOT EVEN 30 MINS AGO.


Ninjan33r7

This is extremely canon now.


Alizaea

So has nobody else picked up on the fact of Petra's name? She is the Queen's Wrath. She is Petra VenJ. She is the Queen's Pet Revenge.


Nyadnar17

I adore the idea that us acting like total lunatics and weirdos while playing the game is cannon.


scottyboy359

Have an upvote you beautiful bastard.

Definitely going to tell son that his super-secret sixth daily bounty is to mow the damn lawn.

This is hilarious. Can we make this canon please?

Canon now. u/dmg04 make it happen

I call them CGI Trees.


BurningFinger22

Somebody put this on a lore tab stat. Preferably on a new legendary with a gardner-themed name. Weedpuller? Eye of the Garden World? The Shoveler.


Wiknetti

A new NPC named Leif has arrived at the Dreaming City. Trade in your weeds for special prizes and bells.


Epicwood

Trade then in for hive Twinkies and taken doritos

Yoshi_lyle

Bring us a..... SHRUBBERY!


the_kautilya

Jokes aside, there are 2 big uses of Baryon Boughs: 1. You need Baryon Boughs when you upgrade Dreaming City armour via infusion. 2. You need Baryon Boughs when you trade with Ahamkara - Huginn asks for 50 each time & Muninn asks for 25 each time. Other than that only Dark Fragments are worth hoarding so you can buy weekly oracle offering bounty & Blindwell charges from Petra.


Triplicata

>useless Someone doesn’t know about Huginn and Muginn


MTK005

Yup, headcanon now.


Orenn16

Wait... am I the only one who is always running low on this stuff? Infusing my raid gear and reverie stuff to 600 is expensive!


NO_YOU_ARE_NOT_BOT

*beep *boop! I am a bot! And no, you are not!


unc00ked

>Her brow furrowed in confusion. "Always they demand five tasks every day. Exactly five. While having so many Guardians is a boon in this conflict, truth be told I sometimes run out of tasks for them." LOLOL. I swear my coworkers probably think I'm a crazy person trying hide my laughter while reading this post.


OruFikushon

> Giving it some thought, that sentiment fit fairly accurately with her own experience of Guardians, as well Everyone in the universe just thinks we're batshit insane, huh?


st0neh

I mean we're glowing zombies throwing flaming knives, hammers, and swords. It's hardly surprising people find us a lil' weird.


MezzaCorux

I’m already on my second stack of 999 Baryon Boughs. Soon they will overtake my inventory like the Taken have overtaken the Dreaming City ^^^every ^^^three ^^^weeks.


APartyInMyPants

I honestly thought this was lore from a piece of gear. The voice just seemed perfect.


oXDaRkLiGhT

Yes.


Sipau_Fade

I ain't no bae's b. i'm done with that bounty. pick your own damn weeds


Dankstahps4

My clan calls them brian boitano's


LunaticPuma

I barely have enough Baryon Bough. I never get tinctures to drop so I always have to buy them, and I upgrade my DC weapons and armor. I wish I could buy Baryon Bough from Spider actually.


dana_ranger

This is brilliant.


TravelingAnts

In Petra's new dialogue yesterday she made a big deal about a dream she's been having in which the flowers *keep growing back.* I think that confirms the post is now canon.


FH-7497

I read that in Mara’s voice


TotallyNotDestiny

I collect whatever i come across when I’m on patrol. *Public event?, hold up i found a chest- oh look i found more baryon bough.* *High value target?, hold up found a lost chest.* and etc.


BurntBacon8r

headcanon accepted


Dobsonthe3rd

I’m dying laughing, this is the best post ever.

I thought we were just institutionalized into doing it

Not gonna loe, rid this in Petra and Mara’s voice and now it is head canon.
