The Lament

The last thing the Vex ever heard—the grinding wails of a vicious Banshee.

FROM THE DESK OF CLOVIS BRAY

Dear… me.

For one who has delved into some of the greatest secrets science has to offer, you would think I'd find speaking with oneself rather monotonous. However, this very letter represents a successful culmination of all I have worked to achieve.

You'll have questions, no doubt. Hopefully by now, the AI has answered most of them.

Except one: Why?

Legacy, of course.

…Is the answer you'd expect from me. And rightfully so. It's not wrong, but it's only part of the story.

Frankly, I'm alarmed. For all my successes in scientific research, I have lacked any substantial findings of an afterlife. All I can find is death. An infinite nothingness. No remembering my loved ones, no seeing them again. No feeling their touch, or hearing their voices.

In my pursuit of eternity in this reality, I have foregone those niceties. Abandoned them. But you are a second chance. An opportunity to continue what I started, and hopefully in time, make amends with those I've wronged.

Attached to this letter, you will find a gift. A blade built just for you.

Keep it close. Never let anyone else take it. Stay alive.

For legacy.

You pretty much become Nero from DMC4, Does great damage, sounds cool, looks cool, is cool.

The Lament is the new heavy weapon damage king in PVE. It simply erases bosses. Just rev up the sword and swing away - it's honestly kind of shocking just how much damage it does. I worry that Bungie will nerf the damage soon, so enjoy it while you can. It also looks and sounds really cool. Just a fantastic new exotic all around.

Jeez all I gotta say not enough stars for this thing to give. There's a new sword champ in town. Time to retire falling guillotine to the weapon graveyard for now

An absolute beast both damage and aesthetic-wise. Would save the monster that is Clovis Bray I again.

IRONwolf @ 12/9/2020 PVE PVP
I have not acquired this weapon, but I see everyone raving about it over falling guillotine. While that may be the case, you have to keep in mind, the FG is a legendary item while this is an exotic. While this may better, it also means you can't run a powerful sword plus an exotic. I'm rating this 4 stars to not drastically lower the rating.

Rat Stew @ 11/21/2020 PVE PVP
Pretty fun weapon. Hold the guard key to rev, and there is a specific combo to get higher dps: 2 light attacks, then a heavy attack. The hits are crits, and do seemingly high dps. Does higher than a normal heavy attack, that's for sure. It's a chainsaw, ffs. In PVP, it's a sword. You might as well use a legendary one and use ace or thorn.

Amazing DPS weapon for PVE: but do keep in mind that, with it being an exotic, there will still be times where Falling Guillotine is preferable.
In PVP, the extra damage is not worth your exotic slot. If you really want an PVP heavy exotic, use Xenophage. otherwise, use a legendary sword and a real PVP exotic.

Themyster1ous01 @ 12/10/2020 PVE PVP
Pro Tip: Aerial combos do way more DPS. Jump and then do the combo or spam light attacks.

Don't waste the exotic slot for PvP, however. Use Bequest, Gilloutine, Hook, or Black Talon instead.

Deputy McNugget @ 12/19/2020 PVE PVP
This sword outclasses any other close-quarters DPS option. Even when you're not in a raid, this thing slaps enemies so hard that it properly cooks them. I haven't found anything outstanding about it in PvP, however, but I might be proven wrong.

Big dick dps + lifesteal. 'nuff said

Deo @ 11/23/2020 PVE PVP
Insane damage, soloed the Disgraced strike and it killed Navota twice in under 3 minutes, clip linked. PVP rating unrelated since I haven't had a chance to use it yet

NEØNDREAMER @ 11/24/2020 PVE PVP
Very cool sword
Quest is simple, effective weapon, enable perk and use as easy as shelling pears
The only problem I found is that it takes an exotic slot, which will not allow you to take another set

This sword has really big burst if you rev it up, and the healing perk allows you to keep snowballing kills all over the place. Melts majors and up
