(Like the exotic that was inspired by said WoS) https://t.co/8AzrumvYvnWhile there is no official statement from Bungie as to how one can acquire the weapon, community feedback on the campaign so far strongly suggests that for now, the weapon is indeed a Deluxe Edition exclusive.Players who have preordered the Deluxe Edition of The Witch Queen will be able to immediately access the SMG by crafting it while in the Enclave right after finishing the new campaign on either Normal or Legendary.All Deluxe Edition owners will need to do is to look for the Osteo Striga pattern, which will be craftable once the campaign is finished. They will require the following ingredients to craft it:7 Resonant Alloy15,000 Glimmer2,375 Neutral Element1 Ascendant Alloy70 Ruinous ElementThe ingredients can be easily picked up while completing the campaign. Hence, it’s not going to be all too difficult to craft. However, this is for Deluxe owners only, and players who have not bought the edition will apparently get to craft the weapon post-campaign only after the current season ends.The Season of the Risen is set to end sometime in May, and speculation is strong that the Osteo Striga will be available for the rest of the player base next season. This was the same pattern Bungie followed with the No Time To Explain exotic Pulse Rifle during the beyond Light expansion.
