5 Weeks & 5 Exotics: How I got the Outbreak Prfectd Catalyst (Destiny)

So... truly, 5+ weeks ago I was going to call this eventual thread here "My Pandemic Play in Quarantine: Outbreak Perfected Catalyst!" but... well. I don't know. It's just a touch TOO on the nose. I wasn't expecting for it to be so literal.

In these last 5 Weeks, surprise surprise I ran Warlock, because duh, best jump. Helps free up an exotic slot. Try Transversive Steps if you feel you are still a touch too slow (like I did in the first week) or Veritys Brow to bump up your grenade regeneration. I'd start off Top Tree Solar for all that aerial razzmatazz, and while going up the elevator (the one that eventually breaks at the top) switch to Top Tree Arc for add clearing goodness.

I also decided to mix things up and run with a different exotic each week. I should note I've watched other players have a real good time with Riskrunner, which made me exclude it because I wanted to explore the full powers of Light in this current "glitched" Land of the Glass Cannon. To see how other weapons would work out.

Here are the results in my playthroughs:

Week 1 - LE MONARQUE @ 39 Seconds Left
Week 2 - TRINITY GHOUL @ 46 Seconds Left
Week 3 - GRAVITON LANCE @ 31 Seconds Left
Week 4 - WISH-ENDER @ 16 Seconds Left

...and with Week 5. Well, it's kind of a given. With this video, instead of just grabbing the last 2 Minutes or so, I cobbled together a glimpse of how the Warlock jump has somehow been made better so that I could cut whole sections, then I show the last 2 Minutes followed by some quick smash cuts just showing off the improved toy. I admit, I didn't really know what to do here, as I was too busy smiling ear to freaking ear.

Hardest part about all of this? That BLASTED room. You know - YOU KNOW! Even with a map. Get even slightly careless and BOOM next thing you know you've burned at least 30 Seconds. So Now? Well, now all I have to do is wait for the following stuff to glitch so that I could Lone Wolf the RNG, or be hopelessly carried so that I can eventually get(from memory)... The Telesto Catalyst, Sleeper Stimulant Catalyst, Legend Of Acrius Catalyst, as well as the Raid Exotics One Thousand Voices, Anarchy, and Tarrabah. But I digress.

YAY! :D

So yeah, it's done and thanks for coming to my TED talk or whatever. :P

It's too late for you now (unless you just want to keep running for fun), but for anyone else still doing this, follow Trevor. Once he zips by underneath the hatch you drop through, follow him to the left and flip the near left, then far left switches. Then turn back, cut through the middle across the pipes, and flip the near right then far right switches. You shouldn't have to worry too much about running into him with this path.

I've still got three weeks to go to finish off my catalyst :(
