@@DronesOverTheMoon it was meta for a while. So long as you could reload cancel. And saying that you need a certain perk isn't an argument against shotguns with that perk being meta. Because thats kinda how destiny works. Like double slugs really wanting vorpal and auto loading to be good. Or salvagers salvo being really good Because of chain reaction.
Whenever I heard that lord of wolves dropped from the spider bounties, I thought it only dropped from the big weekly bounty, and didn’t realize it dropped from all the bounties. Took twice as long for me to get lord of wolves than it needed to.
@@Ethnichands the games were slow, everyone just stayed at the back, and the aim assist on MIDA made aiming as a easy as punching a first grader, also destiny almost died in D2Y1, tf are you on about?

Just bought some of those glasses, didn't really know I needed them till now (work all day at computer and play games). Great sponsor and great offer! Thanks!
Evan really knows how to capture how it felt to be in the middle of these weapon's pre rule, realization of how special it is and how it felt to wield it
As far as I remember, there was a bug related to dropping LoW in forsaken. If you've been completed all Spinder bounties that week and claimed all of them one after another pretty fast, the gun could drop. It worked for me and all of my friends at that time
Lord of Wolves is what let me do Shattered Throne on release just for the add clear in the final phase. Failing to clear all of the taken psions on spawn was the only thing that was stopping us the first few attempts, but swapping to Lord of Wolves made that very easy.
Watching this video made me realize how much I liked both The Pyramidion and Savathun's Song as strikes. While I understand that removing stuff was necessary because the game was becoming bloated and we needed free space for newer content, I can't help but be a little disappointed in some of what we lost likely not coming back.
Funny part is I remember My 1st exotic drop was the Lord of Wolves in my 2nd story mission and I shelf’d it! Went into the crucible one day (during season of the drifter) and was getting wrecked by it! I was using that thing for a while (being one of few using it) until one day EVERYONE was using it lol fun asf at that time!!! Just like the Preamethious (spell check) Lense era 😂
Blue light glasses are a MUST if your looking at a screen or multiple like me when im reading stock charts. but i play d2 on ps4 4k SUHD so no need for them there. But yes there great to have if your a streamer or a PC player
I still wear my emblem in honor of my favorite exotic. I used it before it became meta so it was like Christmas when I saw everyone else use it. I still pull it out time to time.
It seemed like you said twice that the Queenbreakers bow was a world drop in D1. I am certain those three weapons were only obtainable through the elder cipher.
@@wesleyeberly228 was it the reprised version? When they were brought back they were world drops, but in House of Wolves the three were only available from the elder cipher
I legitimately got Lord of Wolves during the first week of Forsaken, on my first Spider bounty that I completed. Took it into Crucible and the rest is history.
The thing I remember most about this meta is that learning I could get it from those bounties grinding it out and using it in crucible and thinking holy shit this thing is good why is nobody using it and 2 days later the LoW outbreak occurred
I remember I got Lord of Wolves AND its Catalyst at the same time during the Saber Strike and my friend was mad at me for getting both. He told his friend, "This guy right here has gotten Lord of Wolves AND the Catalyst at the same time." Lol I'll never forget man.
If Lord of Wolves was a named character is would've had one hell of a story arc, a peasant who rose to become a king, a king who became a tyrant, a tyrant ousted by his people but would one day return to power in some form
"I wish we had a shotgun meta in pve" *laughs in double slug*
I think he means pellet shot guns and general buff to them.
@@RedLightDead *laughs in final rounding*
It's really been only in some boss encounters. Not like when Ikelos shotty was a must for all PVE activities with un-nerfed Trench Barrel.
@@Santisima_Trinidad still not meta because you need a certain perk and spend all your bullets for it to work

Vid name change: Lord Of Wolves, The Weapon That Was At The Top Of The Pack
This feels more fitting
Great title!
Yez
The weapon that ruled destiny plays into the “lord” thing
Lord of Wolves: the Leader of the Pack
i remember when xur sold OEM and lord of wolves together... crucible was painful that weekend
Wasn't that when low was broken
@@Ao_tgl yup, in season of opulence
@@gucciclov3r809 yeah I just didn't remember because I was to busy trying to get reckoner and didn't even get it
@@Ao_tgl ah i see
"I wish that there was a Shotgun Meta for Raids"
I'm looking at you First In, Last Out and Heritage. I'm looking at you.
Such good shotguns 🔥💪🏼
let's not forget Deep Stone Double Slug Shotty Swap. The meta is there, people just don't wanna embrace it.
@@radianteclipse132 that’s a load of BS and you know it, everybody and their mother uses double slugs for Templar DPS
Ikelos shotty was a thing for SOS completion even before this
OG Ikelos shotty anything?
Next Weapons: Telesto: the bug that dominates destiny 2. hahahaha
A telesto video is definitely needed
@@denzel3804 it’s already up in the pocket infinite vid
Telesto is the besto
Molesto will always be besto
I’d be so excited for a telesto vid!
Whenever I heard that lord of wolves dropped from the spider bounties, I thought it only dropped from the big weekly bounty, and didn’t realize it dropped from all the bounties. Took twice as long for me to get lord of wolves than it needed to.
The SIVA ornament for this gun is one of my favorites in the game
It got 2 SIVA ornaments, one in D1 and another in D2, and yet Sleeper Simulant didn't get one.
@@coatl4778It does now
Really puts “You either die a hero, or you live long to become the villain” into perspective
always love these mini destiny documentaries!
U gotta do “trials of the MIDA” back in D2 year 1…that shit was bad
Wasn't MIDA also the fallback when TLW got nerfed in D1Y2?
It was fun tbh brought me back to the halo days. Also it was alot more skill based back then.
Lawd 😩 the team shooting melting whatever poor player that tried quick peeking lol!!
imagine thinking a meta where you actually have to aim your weapon was bad. The PvP in destiny died when they added special weapons back into the mix
@@Ethnichands the games were slow, everyone just stayed at the back, and the aim assist on MIDA made aiming as a easy as punching a first grader, also destiny almost died in D2Y1, tf are you on about?
Evan so stoked whenever I see a new post! You’re a real one!
7:47 gotta love some sett appreciation
My friend stopped playing D2 around the Forsaken period, and whenever I mention Pvp, he ALWAYS asks me: "Is Lord of Wolves still OP?" After this we share a brief moment of PTSD and move on
I love how this channel has become some sort of historical documentation of Destiny's history. Thanks
Those damn bloopers broke me, especially Dattos face🤣
Love this and can't wait for the one eye mask vid. Should also definitely do a vid on how broken Nova warp was when it first came out.
My respect for evan has increased just for mentioning Jak 2
5:41 Tiny feet flashback. Love Jack and Daxter.
literally played it this morning for nostalgia before I saw this XD
"I wish there was a shotgun meta for raids" hey Evan have you played deep stone?
talking about pellet shotguns mainly
Double slugs for templar and atheon too.
The Lord of Wolves tale is truly the essence of the phrase: "You Die a Hero or Live Long Enough To See Yourself Become The Villain."
8:25 The Tanlgled shore that’s a like from me Evan
Now we need a telesto vid for reasons that are obvious
I love this weapon so much. I tried to use it today both in pvp and pve and it barely did anything.
Just bought some of those glasses, didn't really know I needed them till now (work all day at computer and play games). Great sponsor and great offer! Thanks!
Me he guy who started his Destiny Journey in Season of the Splicer : Ahh yes I understand
19:14 as he said that i got a lord of wolves drop from shaxx
I was wondering where I got the wolves unleashed emblem from. I’ve had it on my hunter for a while now lol
I remember getting LoW on my first bounty turn in. Took like 40 for my friend
I appreciate the very descriptive subtitles for this video. Makes for munching food and watching a lot easier.
A clip is a small metal strip that is placed on the gun after which the ammo is pushed off the clip into the gun.
Thank you Evan for all the videos you have uploaded in a month
I'm happy that i got this a week ago, feels good
Evan really knows how to capture how it felt to be in the middle of these weapon's pre rule, realization of how special it is and how it felt to wield it
Also I like this ad you did, its so calming and nice :)
5:40 huzzah a man of culture
14:21 Yeah it does bring some PTSD all right
As far as I remember, there was a bug related to dropping LoW in forsaken. If you've been completed all Spinder bounties that week and claimed all of them one after another pretty fast, the gun could drop. It worked for me and all of my friends at that time
The mp edits and hush part made me :)

Thank you to GMG Performance and thank you for taking the time to watch this!
Question Evan does the hard light ammo changes do anything to special bosses like stronger against hive or some other group like vex,elenski or exo?
LoW was great in D1 for melting in nightfalls when solar burn was on and for solo deathsinger in Crotas end although I still preferred raze lighter
Thanks for making these evan
Lord of Wolves is what let me do Shattered Throne on release just for the add clear in the final phase. Failing to clear all of the taken psions on spawn was the only thing that was stopping us the first few attempts, but swapping to Lord of Wolves made that very easy.
Darn that ad has the music playing in the mall in dead rising, i lived that game lol
“Hahaha, Shotgun Go Brrrrr.”
Hey man. Some of my best games of rumble in D1 were with Lord.
Dude, those were the best bloopers! So hilarious!
I got a random lord of wolves from a really really easy and fast strike in the EDZ
You either die a hero or live long enough to see yourself become the villain…
You should make a video talking about what Witch Queen needs to be to live up to Taken King.
YES YES! My boi! My good boi got his own video!
The only reason i was not that scared of the gun is cuz... cuz...
Oh god... I HEAR THE LASERS AGAIN!!!!
That outro song is straight fire my guy 🔥 💯🤣
Queenbreakers bow actually was only available through the elder cider as LoW and DP
Watching this video made me realize how much I liked both The Pyramidion and Savathun's Song as strikes. While I understand that removing stuff was necessary because the game was becoming bloated and we needed free space for newer content, I can't help but be a little disappointed in some of what we lost likely not coming back.
Watching the video while using lord of wolves really hits
bro you made the best destiny videos of all time,to have my wife watch your vids about games you definitely nail it,keep the good content up
The LoW emblem is my favorite in my collection
Yooo another jak fan
your setup is clean af

The not so glorious days return
5:04 the transition LMFAO
God daym the forsaken music is fire
I still wear my emblem in honor of my favorite exotic. I used it before it became meta so it was like Christmas when I saw everyone else use it. I still pull it out time to time.
If you do end up doing one eyed mask maybe a certain one eyed warlord should make a guest appearance on it
I remember getting the emblem but not even knowing about the lord of wolves at the time. I just got destroyed by it and never noticed
Why does this channel have so little subscribers like the mans voice is so good.
It seemed like you said twice that the Queenbreakers bow was a world drop in D1. I am certain those three weapons were only obtainable through the elder cipher.
I’ve never done a cipher and have dregs promise and low so pretty sure it’s a drop
@@wesleyeberly228 was it the reprised version? When they were brought back they were world drops, but in House of Wolves the three were only available from the elder cipher
@@mentalist1310 no clue i only played d1 around the season of opulence
@@wesleyeberly228 then it was resprised. Unless you got it from the Prison of Elders that had Skolas at the end.
stopped playing curse of osiris. came back at the end of season of the drifter. This shit happened. I dipped.
Wooooo I’m back baby
I just got a 20 streak with LoW equipped with the last breath and bad omens. LoW really compliments the two lol
I waited for this video for so long
I legitimately got Lord of Wolves during the first week of Forsaken, on my first Spider bounty that I completed. Took it into Crucible and the rest is history.
Evan, there was a lot of league images used this time around. You trying to tell us something buddy?
I'm super late, but @2:44, is that a Roserade- colored Titan?!
I have this and keep it as a treasure to this day and still use it
The thing I remember most about this meta is that learning I could get it from those bounties grinding it out and using it in crucible and thinking holy shit this thing is good why is nobody using it and 2 days later the LoW outbreak occurred
It could 4 bolt in taken king and in roi it could 3 with buffs.
It'd be interesting to hear about the bones of eao and how double blink was quirky
Great video! Can I suggest a video on telesto and it’s history!
I remember I got Lord of Wolves AND its Catalyst at the same time during the Saber Strike and my friend was mad at me for getting both. He told his friend, "This guy right here has gotten Lord of Wolves AND the Catalyst at the same time." Lol I'll never forget man.

Shotgun pve Meta?
We have Double sluging right now sooo...
Aaaaaaaaand it's gone
Can't wait for the Anarchy vid
I finished halo 3 and saw this in my subscipsion box
I am very happy
YESSS, THIS IS MY FAVORITE EXOTIC SINCE HOUSE OF WOLVES
Ah yes forgot to put on my glasses. Good looks Evan and a nice fuuuu to the blue light terror
I got a new Frozen toy for my Warlock just completed the Beyond Light campaign on him did my Hunter awhile ago
This thing haunted me and knowing there's a niche for it being strong as hell again, I fear it'll return
Dregs promise was so slept on
evan the man who is gonna make a story about all the exotics in destiny 2
It’s fitting that I got this weapon from a Season of the Splice Season Pass Engram.
you should cover queenbreaker and that it should be made into a special weapon
What a story I so enjoy these
Honestly i have more bad memories of mountain top recluse and sparebenders
I have watched the video just today, but several League of Legends Pictures in a Video from Evan, damn!
I got the lord of wolves from a random drop while doing the lat mission for the last word so whats up with that?
LOW still smacks in crucible especially on console where most people’s reaction time is slower
Shout out to Krew, awesome video Evan
Even after the nerf, it performed amazingly, and competed with the meta, and could even beat it,
