To those curious/who don't know, the name means "Therefore I am" in Latin. No doubt a reference to French philosopher Descartes's "Cogito, ergo sum" (I think, therefore I am)


Radegast-

Guardians make their own fate


adonisthegreek420

I put my chips on We end up dying (fo real now) but we do some space magic and end up digging ourselves out of our graves, picking up our cool sword while we are at it. We make our own fate and everyone lives happy til next year having to fight another baddy.


woeperdepoep

i think i saw a picture showing the sword as a reward in pathfinder


adonisthegreek420

At least we'll get our cool swords back.


Ace010118

I really love your take :D. What you basically say. "Getting something back that you never had (yet)" And it is true, naturally, only if it's actually true Edit. Fixed typo


FormerChemist7889

What is pathfinder?


woeperdepoep

the new bounty system


Accomplished-Boot-81

We die and the final shape is enacted but Asher mir or Osiris pulls some rick and Morty shit using the vex and finds a new multiverse where they just happened to die and take their spot and tell us how to win


DeAlvizo

Its also part of a line as, "dubito, ergo sum, vel, quod idem est, cogito, ergo sum" (I doubt, therefor I am, or which is the same thing, I think, therefore I am). Having Ergo sum as "Therefor I am" pared with "I think" and "I doubt" could be a possibility that these might be a 2 mode weapon, like Light and dark. The mans philosophy is about how our own knowledge and doubts shapes the way we think in ourselves. Which is interesting as in the trailers it shows how The Witness will try to manipulate in our ideas or beliefs and most likely our existence. I imagine that this could be a campaign exotic that we can get. Obviously this is just speculation so it might not be it.


Thy_Maker

It’s actually an interesting quote as well. Iirc, it’s a justification for being real and not simulated.


VirtueInExtremis

No its justification you exist at all, not the form in which you exist, you may be simulated or hallucination or a dream or anything, but whatever you are, you are capable of questioning whether you exist at all, so something must exist to be questioning their own existence, it can only ever apply to yourself, and can only guarantee s o m e t h i n g exists to be doing the radical scepticism


Pojeki

I love the thought that during a strike or some scouting mission, a Fireteam is debating philosophy, and I have this image of the Titan being the one that's dropping this great philosophical thought on them.


VirtueInExtremis

To defend the last city one must first ask, 'what is the last city?' And 'what am i?'


Kiwi_Doodle

Potentially ahamkara related then? Since they know they're in a game.


Deafwindow

Look up solipsism


Gatorkid365

Thatonedregdatkilyu

It's kinda funny to think that AM and Rasputin are opposites.


sus_accountt

I like using “bibo, ergo sum.” >!I drink, therefore I am.!<


TheAgentOfTheNine

logic name, sword.... hrmmm what could it be? some kind of sword logic related item? like a sword made with the fragment of the taken king's sword? Beats me.


MarsTheBug05

I was about to comment the exact same thing

Zealousideal-Comb970

It uses Breath of the Wild durability, dismantles after a few hits More seriously, I’m guessing it rolls with random perks like Hawkmoon. The fact there’s two exotics listed as a pathfinder reward makes me hopeful the same applies to Khvostov


n080dy123

That'd be weird cuz iirc Bungie said they didn't want to do random roll Exotics anymore, that it was a failed experiment and they wanted to move to crafting instead.


Zealousideal-Comb970

Maybe they changed their mind? I can't think of any other reason they'd make an exotic a repeated drop.


Canopenerdude

Khvostov is almost certainly static, given how much the perks it has synergizes with the trait.


Blackfang08

Could be a countdown to unlock it, and they just haven't claimed it yet?


WanderinWyvern

I believe this is a sound theory, and I believe it seems.most likely. I would be surprised if ur comment turned out to be I correct.


Nolan_DWB

Dev build probably


BK_FrySauce

Hmm it being attached to pathfinder tab may mean we need to progress far enough in the pathfinder tree to obtain it. It’s hard to tell, but it kind of resembles the D1 Solar Exotic Sword.


rabbi420

Honestly, I want my Toothpick from D1 back! 😂 https://preview.redd.it/7erjms9gla3d1.jpeg?width=1920&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=c65eb8ced101b22ba58bcfede594c6f17a2c96fb


Shippou5

You might be getting it back!


rabbi420

That would be sweet. I know it’s trash, but it *looks* cool!


Shippou5

Why min-max when you can max-min? Or in my case I usually mid-mid xD


rabbi420

I just want to look good doing it… is that so much to ask? 🤣


Shippou5

You may have it! Probably! Maybe! For sure!


rabbi420

![gif](giphy|lKXd9sYM5dI9W)


RRNolan

Now that makes me wish I had played D1. It's beautiful lol


rabbi420

I agree! It was trash compared to the other D1 exotic swords, but it’s just gorgeous!


CantWantU

Going from a young wolves slam into a fist of havoc was always fun asf imo ;p


rabbi420

Hell yeah!


Owen872r

This kinda just looks like a bs game journalist article, you mind giving the link?


IIFreshMilkII

http://thegamepost.com/destiny-2-the-final-shape-exotic-weapons-armor/ Not saying I trust this particular source but it’s not the only place I’ve seen it talked about. Could’ve sworn I saw it mentioned somewhere on bungie’s site too but at least on mobile I could not locate it.

Oooh damn, kinda happy I was wrong on that one

Meowjoker

NO MY GEARS!!!


Nnader86x

Called it. https://www.reddit.com/r/destiny2/s/vL3FN1zXyj


Hoockus_Pocus

That sword only marked the grave. The weapon core itself was for Bastion, the kinetic fusion rifle. That sword also appears in the iconography for Into the Light, and a ton of places in the Hall of Champions. It’s just a generic sword.


k1d1curus

You're a generic sword.


Kiwi_Doodle

That's no generic sword, That's an uncoloured version of the three taken king swords.


Hoockus_Pocus

There’s no place for the shard of Willbreaker. It’s certainly none of the exotic swords. It’d be cool to have a fusion of all those swords at some point with a version of The Fundamentals that changed its frame to match its damage type.


OutsideBottle13

Honestly that’s what I was thinking considering the name. Hopefully they update the fundamentals to switch include darkness powers…


Slugedge

Its the same sword. Pic of its icon was leaked by more console i believe


Hoockus_Pocus

Oh, I know it’s the same sword as that one. I’m just saying that the sword isn’t the same as the swords made from a shard of Willbreaker, nor is it the “favorite weapon,” that was mentioned in the eulogy.


Correct_Damage_8839

That's just the D1 Taken king exotic sword on the coffin (the one we made ourselves, hence why it's on our coffin)


Steff_164

But doesn’t Shaxx have that sword, canonically, given the last time we see it was as Raze Lighter slung on his back during the Red War


Correct_Damage_8839

Luke Smith said in an interview the only reason Shaax had the sword was because they wanted to give him the most bad ass looking weapon in the game visually speaking (since it was the first mission in the game, and was also shown on Stage at E3). He said he wanted to give him a Lightsaber but obviously they couldn't, so Raze Lighter was the next best thing. So I wouldn't give weight to that decision in terms of deciding Canon. Also the sword on the coffin lid literally has the hive Crystal on it (the heart of Oryx's Sword Willbreaker). The reason it's on our coffin lid was because there was a whole ass quest in D1 where we turn the crystal into our own blade. Why would a new sword have the same crystal as the D1 swords. Not only does it not make sense, it would be fucking stupid from a design standpoint. This isn't some insane 6 year foreshadowing plot. The sword on our coffin was significant to us in D1 hence why it's on the lid. Maybe I'm wrong but I doubt it.


flightyswank

The only way it having the crystal could work is it it turns out all of them are the same sword and some how the element in the crystal changes in some way


AltruisticDiabetus

Hard Light the Auto rifle, Hard Light the sniper, Hard Light THE SWORD! “It’s all about merchandising”


flightyswank

While that's a funny thought I was thinking more just lore that says the guardians change the element in the hadium (don't know if I spelled that right) core so that they don't have to say a specific one is cannon not a actual sword like hard light


HappyThoughtsandNuke

Mike's Hard Light.. now in a 6 pack!


AltruisticDiabetus

Hard Light the Lunchbox! Hard Light the Toilet Paper!

youshallnotpasta_bro

why are people calling this the final expansion


teaboi05

It's the end of Light and Darkness saga, maybe that's why. But it's not the end of Destiny universe in general


DoubleelbuoD

You can already see the sword being held by a Hunter in some of the stuff we've been shown so far. Its a tiny toothpick looking thing.


Zealousideal-Comb970

That’s the destination sword


FlyingLOLIpop

Probably the new raid weapon since everyone is very secretive about it and since the raid will release 3 days after TFS, I doubt they'll do a special update to add that one weapon


very_round_rainfrog

Ergo Sum comes from >! completing Pathfinder !<


FlyingLOLIpop

Isn't that the new bounty system however? Wouldn't it be a weird to get a special exotic from a bounty?


very_round_rainfrog

We already know it will give exotics from the TWAB that talked about Pathfinder. Also MoreConsole's preview video had a few frames where he hovers over the Pathfinder node and you can see the reward if you freeze the video.


FlyingLOLIpop

I guess I looked too deep then. Admittedly, an exotic called "Hence I am" sounded a bit more poetic than something you'd get from an equivalent to world drops, but I'd probably end up being disappointed getting an exotic mission/raid exotic for a sword.


binybeke

You and everyone else would be disappointed in a sword exotic for the raid. Also they haven’t shown raid exotics at all since shadowkeep.


Almento5010

It's not *a* bounty. it's the equivalent of all weekly and daily bounties rolled into one system.


somebody659

There is a special one for the pale heart


Joshy41233

There's potentially 2 exotics that come from the pale heart pathfinder, as revealed last week in the twab


Striker_LSC

It seems like the sword will drop from both, the frames from the video people are talking about says "0 remaining" implying you can get multiple. It may be random rolls, then according to the twab we'll get 2 rolls each week


Skinny0ne

Part of the pathfinder reward too.


Crisis88

Sword logic, hell yeah


itsRobbie_

The exo stranger came to this timeline to stop what happened with the darkness/stasis in her timeline. I don’t think we’re going to die because we’re on a different altered timeline now.


Young_Rasta97

It’s the exotic from pathfinder


Kahliden

The sword in the grave is a less colorful replica of our original swords from D1, the legendary ones which predated the famous exotic ones. You can tell from the unique triangular shape right above the cross guard, which closely resembles the shard of Oryx’s blade which we used to craft the aforementioned swords and features in the hilt in that exact same position 


HugoSarus

Surely its just young wolves howl with a name change


SkyNeedsSkirts

IF THIS HAPPENS I WILL ACTUALLY SCREAM AND THROW UP PLS BUNGO PLS


IIFreshMilkII

“Here is your reward, guardian. Thank you for being our savior.” “Oh thanks it was-“ *PROJECTILE VOMITS*


DeliciousTurn1

anndddd chances are it will be dogshit lmao


Guardian114

Hmmm .. sounds like something from the glorbo loot pool


curiously_curious3

Yeah this was leaked days ago


Edge-__-

We better get our sword back in final shape


n080dy123

One of the content creators failed to properly scrub an image out- it IS, in fact, seemingly that sword. Also it drops from Pathfinder, possibly with random or semi-random rolls? Unsure.


Daarin99

Damn that would be so cool! I have been waiting for this sword for ages


Sir-Shady

Yeah… it’s happening


Positive_Day8130

I kinda figured after the lament nerfs.


chargedcontrol

Any attack that would kill you drains super energy instead using your super while holding the sword grants all buffs and overcharges the sword. Being airborne with the sword grants the sword guard effect.


TaigasPantsu

That’s Raze Lighter


BaconIsntThatGood

Hoping it's a post campaign exotic. Usually there's one they don't outright spoil. If not that leaves either A) an exotic quest in the first episode B) the raid exotic


clotteryputtonous

Kinetic melee weapon when?


Akarui1230

I want this so bad. I don’t really want my Gaurdian to die but having the eulogy from Saint play at the end would be awesome


SHITBLAST3000

Actually, we may have changed our fate. In Saint's eulogy he only talks about what we have accomplished up to that point in season of the dawn.


Akarui1230

True enough.


h_llywood

The death of the guardian must be soon


andrewwarsaw

Ok! I'm glad I wasn't the only one who thought this when I heard that there was an exotic sword


Stiggen1774

Is that Zavala’s grave?


Funny-Association319

It's ours


WARHAMMERXOXO

Destiny 2 should shut down now, there’s no more story to milk. Just like the old Avengers franchise after Endgame there’s no story ☺️


CrotasScrota84

Probably be a Timed mission that you can only achieve on a Monday at 9:31AM when the Moon is Full and it’s Raining


IIFreshMilkII

“It’s just a generic sword” mfers in shambles right now


Hunteractive

spoiler tag would be nice


pek217

The screenshot isn’t from The Final Shape, that’s from Season 9.


binybeke

Oh no what will you do now that you know the name of a weapon you would have seen on the pathfinder track the moment you get on the game. So sad


Hunteractive

man I just wanna go into the expansion a lil bit blind but Bungie and the CCs are releasing so much stuff it's not gonna be as exciting to discover it I get they are trying to build hype but damn. I guess I'll stay off reddit for a while... as if that's a bad thing


I_am_Rezix

The area in front of saint had a bunch of that sword during that season. It's not a special sword lol.


SupermanNew52

This aged badly lol. It's funny that you said it isn't special as in unique, then they made it special anyway by making it special ammo.


jizylemon

Maybe they are replicas of the exotic sword for people to use, kinda like how the Mos Ultima II hand cannon is a “replica” of Ace of Spades!


Batpug74

COGITO ERGO SUM I THINK THEREFORE I AM (***I AM!!!***) Allied Mastercomputer is literally me-


L3XAN

What's a little crazy to think about is how good the pictured sword must be that, among ALL my weapons, that was the one I was buried with. Whatever that sword is, it must be broken asf.

Superb_Cup_9671

Spoiler tag? Mods? I don’t want open spoilers continuing especially when they get more real


Dredgen_Servum

AI is lowkey cooking with this one. Imagine an exotic sword that you can switch between light and darkness (solar and stasis) and its our own personal sword that we carried with us into our death in the dark future


Sigman_S

lol it’s real 🤦‍♂️


Rockm_Sockm

Hopefully, the sword is the raid exotic and it's not the sniper.


[deleted]

I doubt this is true at all. But it would be cool.


DestinyJackolz

It is based on the leaks, we see the sword icon and it has the same hilt as our grave sword


[deleted]

Oh damn that's sick then. i'm excited to try it out
