@@Scrappy0794 My only exotic weapon icons are from S21-23 haha, but I know I’d recognize them immediately! Thing is, I did a lot of backend cataloguing and documentation sorta stuff on my team for a while regarding icons, so they could be easily referenced or checked (I could go on for hours about the “Visual Language” of Destiny’s iconography lol the deeper you get the more you realize it’s basically full-on hieroglyphics with meaning in every symbol) which meant that I was staring at every weapon icon all the time while sorting them haha! But I’ll admit, while watching there were definitely a few I didn’t get lol
@@TheRealBlueJay well thank you for designing and cataloging the icons you did, hopefully you left bungie on your own terms and were not part of the layoffs, or if you were I hope you get back/ have gotten back on your feet quickly 🫡🫡
@@Scrappy0794 Thank you 💙 unfortunately I was affected by the layoffs, but I’m working as a UI Art Lead now at an indie place - nice change of scenery :) id love to go back to Bungie someday, though.
@@TheRealBlueJay hell yeah, that’s what I like to hear, glad you found something in the meantime, I’m hoping bungie can regain their footing as well, and hopefully you can get your job back there as well 👍🏻👍🏻
0:49 ruinous effigy 1:48 ruinous effigy 3:05 this is not ruinous is it? (it was not 4:17 ruinous effigy (he was correct this time) 7:35 is this ruinous effigy? (no) datto how often do you actually use ruinous
I was kind of hoping that no matter how badly I did overall (and it was bad), I'd still be able to pick out Ager's Sceptre. It's easily my most used exotic weapon across the whole game. Nope.
I'm watching a youtube video that's been edited for time, so maybe I'd've faired better with the actual quiz, but yeah, this was a challenge. This is like taking a quiz where you name the lore books based on their cover images. It's stuff that gives the game texture, but is in no way a thing you need to know. And I'm coming from a place of actually enjoying looking at the intrinsic perk icons when I'm inspecting the guns, and I've got a pretty good catalogue in my brain of foundry logos, perk/origin trait icons, representational images of parts of weapons, and artwork on or associated with the weapons that tie to the game world and its characters. It's at least a good enough catalogue to where I could make some strongly educated guesses here and there, but I was at a loss for most of these, especially anything that was just a stylistic representation of just... crackling energy. lol
See icon of hive worm. Immediately go ex diris cause latest hive weapon completely forgetting the grenade launcher we got in wq that literally uses a hive worm
It killed me that you were looking at the taken and Gambit logos combined and didn't guess Malfeasance. Earning that gun is traumatic enough to burn it into your brain
To be fair how often and HARD are you staring at these icons... Like there's no real need to ya know? Also a LOT of them just don't do a great job matching with the weapon's like physical appearance, lore or otherwise to help someone guessing.
I suppose I'm an exception. I always think the icons are neat in how they relate to what they do. Could you pick an Exotic trait that you think is super obscure so I can explain it per your parameters?
That "JESUS CHRIST" from Danielle as she left the room perfectly matches the thoughts of many viewers, I'm sure. Skipping past parasite had me shaking my fists
So many of these were literally pictures of part of the gun and he had zero recognition that's crazy. Like I get you haven't used Whisper of the Worm in a while but how do you not recognize the barrel of the gun? Delicate Tomb is the same
did this quiz with my friend a couple weeks ago and was amazed when I watched him one shot it. Gonna send this to him, put him through 20 minutes of what will surely be hell
Two thoughts -- 1) I'm imagining a reaction stream where its a Bungie icon designer watching this video and weeping as Datto stares at an icon that is built using the reticle or some other very overt visual aspect of a weapon, and he just says 'Ruinous Effigy??' over and over. XD 2) I can finally say I'm better than Datto at something! :D
Man’s tossing out Ruinous Effigy like he’s suggesting Lupus to Dr. House.
It's never Ruinous Effigy
Don’t forget Sarcoidosis
@ControlKeyno more nose blood, thank you doctor.
Amazing comment
@ControlKey this vexes me
I never knew Ruinous Effigy had so many perks!
😂
Love the fact that Datto got Heir Apparent at like 20-something and proceeded to continue guessing trying to find it far into the 60's
Digging for it. After calling it "so basic"
The fact that Datto kept trying Ruinous Effigy even AFTER he got Effigy right got me, ngl lol
He did the same with heir apparent 😂
Omg same 😂😂
The heir apparent was the worse one Jesus
As a former icon artist @ bungo responsible for some of these very perk icons, this is my absolute favorite Datto video lol
So when are you doing this challenge?? That would be awesome to see how many you actually remember making

Running straight past Eyes of Tomorrow on the first seconds of setted the tone of the video for me lol
La lament bro hahaha
fr Eyes of Tomorrow perk is literally the Eyes lmao
Datto missing parasite, the gun that shoots the WORM IN THE ICON, and Worldline Zero brought me to tears
If someone doesn't make the anime butterfly meme that says "is this ruinous effigy" there is no justice in this world
Got chu 😂
17:25 "Is this the colony, this is not the colony, THIS IS THE COLONEY!?"
I love how Danielle just took the Lament matters into her own hands, lmao
"This is a Fish" - Datto 2024
That really sent me
Quote of the year 😂
"This is a doggy, gjallarhorn."
Datto “is this sleeper simulant?”
I love the currents album profile pic homie.
Danielle was right, a decent amount have a part of the gun in the symbol. Cloudstrike's has the staff in the icon, just as an example.
He missed called the eyes in "Eyes of Tomorrow" as just 6 dots, that alone gave enough information on what to expect here xD
0:49 ruinous effigy
1:48 ruinous effigy
3:05 this is not ruinous is it? (it was not
4:17 ruinous effigy (he was correct this time)
7:35 is this ruinous effigy? (no)
datto how often do you actually use ruinous
he just made a video on it and enjoyed it
I used to think that something like this would be easy, but damn there’s a lot of exotics that I haven’t looked at in years
14:26 It's the cane that the rest of the gun is built around
The fact that he missed Forerunner the first time that had the 30th anniversary symbol hurt me in so many ways.
I was kind of hoping that no matter how badly I did overall (and it was bad), I'd still be able to pick out Ager's Sceptre. It's easily my most used exotic weapon across the whole game.

Okay we know it’s not Ruinous Effigy, but hear me out. Could it be Ruinous Effigy?
No it's heir apperant
* McDonald's logo *
Is this Ruinous Effigy?
For real, this needs to become a meme
See icon of hive worm. Immediately go ex diris cause latest hive weapon completely forgetting the grenade launcher we got in wq that literally uses a hive worm
I didn't know that Casoid made sleeper sinulant.
18:35 the great words of Datto: "You look like a Monte Carlo lookin' ass."
I gotta be honest i didnt know plenty of these either
8:13 is such a mood
Need to see Fallout doing this
I will ask him.
Funnily enough most of the icons made no sense whatsoever
neither do the weapons
They make a bit more sense when you realize that the icon is for the intrinsic perk, not for the weapon itself. :D

Never once even so much as glanced at them, they aren't important.. just the text next to them.
I suppose I'm an exception. I always think the icons are neat in how they relate to what they do.
Could you pick an Exotic trait that you think is super obscure so I can explain it per your parameters?
The constant guessing of Heir Apparent after he found it 1 minute in-
The is just 100 reps of datto and everyone else doing who’s that Pokémon? It’s pikachu! It’s clefary
"this is a fish" best line
this needs to be the new vault cleaning series where you test content creators XD
i just realized i need to take a break from this game, i recognized like 2/3 of these icons no joke 💀
We love when Danielle comes to wreck Datto out of nowhere
Bring back Perfect Paradox
All the "Is this a..." questions had a real "Is mayonnaise an instrument?" vibes.
Man, Sleeper must have a ton of synergy with other stuff
Nobody:
Datto: Is this Ruinous Effigy?
There's so many exotics here I've never even heard of because of breaks I've taken from the game
I have no fuckin clue how he didn't know worldline zero, its literally a picture of worldline zerk
Petition to officially change the name of Riskrunner to “Risky Runny”
This quiz is largely dependent on spelling ability lol
I like how throughout the whole video, Datto tries Ruinous Effigy for every single icon, AND goes over weapons he's already typed in :D
"This is not cloudstrike but it is."
Cloudstrike literally has that crook tho
That "JESUS CHRIST" from Danielle as she left the room perfectly matches the thoughts of many viewers, I'm sure. Skipping past parasite had me shaking my fists
Him missing Parasite kill me, especially the fact that it was really obvious, along with Rat King
I love how he remembers he got rat king already but even after he got Heir Apparent and Ruinous Effigy he kept trying them
The fact that Datto didn't get Whisper of the Worm's trait first try has made me lose all faith
“Datto is so stupid for not getting these!”
I say knowing I’d do even worse under pressure
I'm so glad my wife doesn't game like I do🤣 "DUDE! You missed two that were so obvious"
Ego. Punched
Every gun is now Ruinous Effigy
Yeah most of those are either heir apparent or ruinous effigy for sure. 😂
Poor guy kept guessing heir when he already got it right
My man guessing Ruinous Effigy like every other one.
I'm 7 minutes in and we are still looking for Ruinous effigy
"This is some fallen ass thing here"
-Datt0, 2024
I thought the wardcliff coil was the most obvious of all, but what do I know, I only got about 12 of em
1:07 >Daito logo (Jade Rabbit Fate of all Fools perk)
Datto: Is this Grand Overture?
Also 1:13 > Cassoid logo = Telesto perk
Datto: SlEePeR sImUlAnT
“Season of Datto got bored and finally came out about himself being funny”
Now do this with exotic armor perks in preparation for the final shape to be able to check class item rolls with just a glance.
Datto loses his mind the video
I don’t blame you for not knowing these. It’s ridiculous to know what these are
ye true, i can memorise shader icons and the season they came out in but this is on a whole nother level 💀
The audacity to check if the picture of a dog really isn't the Fighting Lion
That you did a video on how Conditional Finality has a triangular shaped darkness reticle and you got it wrong twice.
15:21 caught me off guard xDDDDDDDDDDD
"This is a fish" -Datto
Astute observation
“This is not the chaperone because we just did the chaperone”
Types in “the chaperone”
So many of these were literally pictures of part of the gun and he had zero recognition that's crazy. Like I get you haven't used Whisper of the Worm in a while but how do you not recognize the barrel of the gun? Delicate Tomb is the same
Never let this man cook. I am a casual and got so many more of these right.
And this man cleans our vault? Ho boy we in trouble
Bro missed out Thorn. You'd think after the catalyst and the gun become so relevant, he'd recognise it.
did this quiz with my friend a couple weeks ago and was amazed when I watched him one shot it. Gonna send this to him, put him through 20 minutes of what will surely be hell
Where can I find this quiz?
I’m actually really surprised how few of these datto got
The scope for polaris lance is worked into the icon for the perk... can't unsee it now
Dude does NOT know the telesto icon
This is absolutely a treat to watch. Thanks Datto.
I will always watch and comment on Datto videos to help the destiny goat
Imagine if the quiz decided to throw in d1 exotics that haven’t returned like Invective and Pocket Infinity
At one point I like to think I could have gotten all of these but now I don't know 80% of the exotics here
Me and editor xVauda were on the same wavelength with the dez nuts bit
Soon as I saw the symbol that had Wei Ning in it, I screamed Erianna’s Vow😂
I swear the first try was a purposeful throw cause that second round he COOKED
Two thoughts --
1) I'm imagining a reaction stream where its a Bungie icon designer watching this video and weeping as Datto stares at an icon that is built using the reticle or some other very overt visual aspect of a weapon, and he just says 'Ruinous Effigy??' over and over. XD
2) I can finally say I'm better than Datto at something! :D
You can identify a game by dirt, but not an exotic weapon by its perk icon!?
Should give Bfy this test, lore enthusiast should nail this.
im waiting for Datto to appear in a video with a suit and presenting a game show at this point lol
*any symbol*
Datto: "Is this ruinous effigy?"
This was peak entertainment, much wow thank you!
Ruinous Effigy is definitely the many weapons of Destiny 2
“This is a fish.” 😂
Bro got Wish Keeper wrong when we are literally in the exact season it released.
I can tell you that after over 50,000 kills with agers scepter I cannot tell you even remotely what it's symbol is.
this was way harder than i thought
Can someone count how many times he guessed ruinous effigy
dude i was screaming at the screen “you already did heir apparent” this shit is so confusing fr
‘KFC logo’
Datto: this is Ruinous Effigy…
According to Datto, everything is ruinous effigy.
Sees a worm*
“Is this ex Diris??? 4:39
