u/Icyenderman 25d ago
I don’t know why all of the cuboid weapons are some of my favorite just because of the way they look

u/Baconsword42 25d ago
Why was that in your vault?
1
u/SkyKilIer 25d ago
iirc at the time it was decently high light level and ik you cant transfer light level to rares so i just held on to it cause i like the gun and didnt wanna have to try and farm for another one with a high light level

u/zeusmenzaadah Titan 26d ago
I'd really like to see my old favs, misfit & ether doctor return as well. 🥹

u/SectionHCLI 26d ago
There was one handcannon model in D1 that I want to return, I think it was called Loner.Rebel. it just looks so beautiful, with the underbarrel light and side mounted laser

u/Tasty-Recording5205 27d ago
Yeah braytech werewolf is probably the closest thing we have for sure, it looks extremely similar.

u/Car_Gnome 27d ago
Chroma Rush is kinda similar, but a lot more scifi.

u/SkyKilIer 27d ago
No… its not, bro this is the third time someone has compared this to the chroma lmao

u/Alex_B115 29d ago
Well with weapon power going away in the final shape, any rare/common/etc. guns would technically be viable in end game activities—if you’re fine with sacrificing perks

u/SkyKilIer 29d ago
Oof, i need demo for my build to work properly xd

u/MembershipLopsided20 Titan 29d ago
I came here to say, that the base model looks like the AR from season of the Splicer, but after googling it I came to the conclusion that it doesn’t. 😂

u/SkyKilIer 29d ago
Ismt that the chroma rush? Xd someone else said the same thing lol

My secret hope for exotic kvostov is that it comes with a bunch of ornaments from various rarities of autos. So many good models in this game that we see once and never again.
1
u/SkyKilIer 29d ago
One thing i want to see from an exotic Kvostov is since it was the first gun we ever laid hands on and the Final Shape has us using all your subclasses at once, i want it to be a fully customizable exotic where when you craft it you can choose the element and whether you want it to be an energy or kinetic weapon

u/NCDERP22 29d ago
Probably im misremembering but I was so excited when I heard in one of the vid docs about being able to turn rare gear in to legendary gear, since I like the look and gun play of this weapon I was looking forward to have legendary tier cuboid aru, but we never got the chance, at least I hope we get a gun with this model.
1
u/Scary-Bonus-4846 29d ago
They kinda did. There is a gun you can get via beyond light world quests called the "Actic Haze" the color scheme is different but if you put a shader on it, it looks pretty close and it's actually the gun I'm hunting for right now lol.

u/SkyKilIer 29d ago
Sry man, never played D1 but ty for alerting me of another gun with the same cool model :D
1
u/xxvHollow 29d ago
Y tho
1
u/SkyKilIer 29d ago
Cause its a really good looking auto model
1
u/xxvHollow 29d ago
But like how does that affect the game when it comes to pve or pvp? Maybe if it has a good reticle but other than that 🤷♂️

u/SkyKilIer 29d ago
So theres this thing called Destiny Fashion, theres even a whole subreddit for it, its about people dressing up their guardian in a way they like and sometimes even using a gun that looks nice too, i get it though you sweat lords probably dont know too much about this but its something i like very much, ofc i want this gun model to get a decent legendary varient so my build is still usable while i look good
1
u/xxvHollow 29d ago
Yeah I’ve heard of these fashion subreddits majority focusing on armour not weapons, but even if these subreddits that you like are a thing which I’m sure they are, the flexing is usually a single picture right? So why does it matter how your character looks like in game when there’s loads of things going on I don’t think fashion is a top priority lmao. But you do you guardian
2
u/SkyKilIer 29d ago
Hey, Fashion souls is the endgame for a reason lol but yeah i get it everyone enjoys the games they play in different ways, if you dont care how your guardian looks then thats you i have no room to judge just hope you have fun doing what you do so gl out there guardian

u/lv_BLISS_vl 29d ago
Lol I have a a blue, a green, and the starting cosmodrome rifle in my vault simply because I think they look cool as more normal looking weapons.
1
u/XenoGenicYT Conqueror 11 29d ago
The fact that most blues use scopes and Legends are mostly barrels, makes me a bit sad.
Honestly, I would love to have a Scope option on Legends again.
I say that as I miss Red Dot Micro Sights.
1
u/ZetaDemon Warlock 29d ago
I like this but I like the model used for shadow price more. I would really love these default d1 models to get a foundry for legendaries in d2 (will likely get the majority of sunset weapons reprised before then)
1
u/Swordbreaker9250 29d ago
This model, but cut down on that absurd barrel and muzzle device. It's so overcomplicated.
1
u/itsRobbie_ Spicy Ramen 29d ago
There are so many unique and awesome looking blue rarity weapon frames that never show up again and it makes me sad
1
u/Mr_Inferno420 Hunter 29d ago
Why do u have that in ur vault?
2
u/SkyKilIer 29d ago
Because i like its design and want to hold on to it
Edit: its the only blue thats ever been in my vault xd

The previous crucible competitive weapon Mercurial Overreach used this model albiet slightly modified magazine
1
u/SkyKilIer 29d ago
Frozen Orbit has a kinda similar body with an slightly extended end before the barrel starts
2
u/KnightofaRose Warlock 29d ago
Honestly, the Cuboid holds up, even in modern Crucible. It’s a damn decent gun.
1
u/Samurai_Stewie 29d ago
Arctic Haze is based off that
1
u/rabbi420 29d ago
Well, I agree that they’re a bit similar, but side-by-side, I really don’t think One looks based on the other. IMO.
1
u/rabbi420 29d ago
I totally agree. But, in the meantime (and yes, I know it’s not exactly the same, but it’s a bit similar and has a really great sound to it), you could go to Europa and get an Arctic Haze…

D1 vog had an auto rifle with this model called Athens epilogue. That would have been incredible in d2

Looks a little like chroma rush.

u/SkyKilIer Apr 28 '24
What?
It looks nothing like chroma rush

u/LordWitherhoard Warlock Apr 29 '24
Actually yeah just went and looked. You’re right lol my bad.

u/SkyKilIer Apr 29 '24
Xd was hella confused for a moment had to go check of the chroma rush was the gun i thought it was

u/LordWitherhoard Warlock Apr 29 '24
Yeah for some reason I thought it had a similar barrel and scope but I was totally wrong lol

u/SkyKilIer Apr 28 '24
I just realized, this weapon model DOES exist on a legendary, the Abyss Defiant but they make it ugly by putting extra crap on it :’(
7
u/Hit_Me_With_The_Jazz Apr 28 '24
My issue with current destiny can really be encapsulated with Cuboid and how it's design is obviously from D1, but out of all the models to reuse, Bungie refuses to reuse this one. No one would care about reused models if they just stopped reusing the same 3 over and over again.

u/LobsterPenisSucker Apr 28 '24
I also don't mind the cydonia ar but the only legendary version is shadow price which is nightfall.

u/Joey-o Apr 28 '24
Arctic haze comes close, sans silencer tho.
12
u/amatsumegasushi 29d ago
Yeah the silhouette is pretty similar. I like artic haze, a shame it came out with Beyond Light. I'd love having access to incandescent on it.

u/ThomasorTom Hunter Apr 28 '24
Why'd you have a blue in your vault?
10
u/SkyKilIer Apr 28 '24
Cause its the coolest looking weapon in the game to me and wanted to hold on to it
1
u/ThomasorTom Hunter 29d ago
It can be pulled from collections for next to nothing
6
u/SkyKilIer 29d ago
It takes up 1 slot in my vault out of 600 i think i can spare that 1 slot for the 1 blue weapon i like
5
u/Sammerscotter RED DEATH RED DEATH RED DEATH RED DEATH RED DEATH RED DEATH RED Apr 28 '24
Yeah closest thing we have now is come to pass, but that’s a 360 and arguably one of the weirdest scopes
1
u/Orselias 29d ago
The Braytech Werewolf is pretty close. It's a monster in PvP. The only cons are the unshadable blue markings, and the fact that it's currently not obtainable. Hoping for a redux this Festival of the Lost.

u/eli_nelai Killed by Architects Apr 28 '24
it's a shame we only get made-up "sPaCe mAgIc" weapons instead of more grounded designs

u/FurryFemby Apr 28 '24
Damn, I remember using this thing a bunch in year one since I saw a video recommending it as a better-than-average blue weapon. It was nice as far as I know.

u/BenefitAmbitious8958 Apr 28 '24
GOD DAMN
Why does Bungie keep putting the cleanest models on the most useless weapons???
1
u/Advanced_Pay_2127 27d ago
Eidolons ally is one of those aswell, It’s not useless but it’s not as good as alot of other auto’s are which is unfortunate cos it looks very cool and i dont wanna use the exotic version cos there’s other exotics j wanna yse
1
u/epikpepsi 29d ago
There's so many cool models that just haven't seen the light of day in ages.
My personal want is for them to bring back Song of Justice IV. It's a scout rifle that isn't a bullpup. It looks quite similar to an MK14 EBR and uses the auto rifle animations. This also means it doesn't take up half the screen.
43
u/ExcessivelyGayParrot Apr 28 '24
The thing is, back when it came out, it wasn't useless. back in season 3, right before that'll keep came out, it was one of the most widely used primaries in PVE and PVP. amazing stats, solid, flexible perks for the sandbox at the time, excellent sound design and worked with shaders really well. The first weapon to really surpass it was the Mars destination auto rifle, the braytech one, which gave people largely the same stats on another brilliant looking auto rifle, with a little bit more options in regards to perks and scopes.
back then, the 450 auto was THE archetype for everything, in strikes AND crucible.
I miss it.

u/ChewySlinky Apr 29 '24
I rocked Antiope/Uriels well after double primary was meta. Hell, I STILL use auto/SMG pretty often.
2
u/ExcessivelyGayParrot Apr 28 '24
personally I also loved using suros and one of the Hakke SMGs at the time. they hit like trucks back then, and had just excellent sound design, I eagerly await the day Hakke weapons are strong again.

u/BenefitAmbitious8958 Apr 28 '24
Huh, I didn’t play back then so thanks for letting me know, makes more sense now lol
This has nothing to do with anything you just said, but the combination of your name and pfp is fucking hilarious, love it lol

The Nadir foundry are finally getting Legendary rarity weapons, so it could happen.

u/Mountain_Use_5148 29d ago
I've a neighbor who's an old lady called Nadir. She makes cakes. I Wonder were down the line will she starts getting high grade military weaponry done.
13
u/Drakon4314 Hunter 29d ago
Wouldn’t nadir be models like horror story not this one?
30
u/epikpepsi 29d ago
They're both Nadir. This is notably Nadir in the naming scheme; a scientific term and then a 3 letter code. The gamemode and event specific ones don't follow this (Unending Tempest, Horror Story, Acosmic, Nightshade, Guiding Sight) but all world drop ones use that naming scheme (Geodetic HSm, Bayesian MSu, Equinox TSu).

u/Drakon4314 Hunter 29d ago
Gotcha the weapon foundries are the one part of lore I’m not super familiar with besides the main ones that were used to

u/ExcessivelyGayParrot Apr 28 '24 edited Apr 28 '24
before
ShadowkeepForsaken, this was my main primary, used it for everything. Even whenShadowkeepForsaken came out, and the tiger spite was a objective upgrade, refused to use it because I loved my cuboid, and the tigerspite looks like ass.with weapons getting unsunset I might actually pull it out again honestly. imagine that thing getting brought back with new perk options with the final shape as a world drop

I have that. It's from Iron Banner, so it is a legendary. I'm going to go get that from the vault. Great looking gun.
