Exotic Quest for Season of the Deep - Step 1 - Exotic Fish - Broken Blade of Strife - Destiny 2

Seems like we have started the exotic quest for Season of the Deep. The Hawthorne Fishing quest was a nudge by Bungie to get to fishing for the new exotic fish that they unlocked, and confirmed on twitter it took about a day. Once you catch that fish, take it to the aquarium and you'll get the Broken Blade of Strife which you can use at the first Hive as you descend into Deep Dive. Week 2 and 3 will likely be similar with Exotic fix for an item to interact with the other two statues shown, and then what happens after that is unclear. More to come in future weeks on this.

Fishing Rally quest with Hawthorne or do you have to go the Hawthorne before going to deposit fish? I had to go to the Quest Archive Terminal > Seasonal to get Fishing Rally: Throne World to pick up the quest; then speak to Hawthorne.

[pheonixeternal]

I think going forward from obtaining the first blade when we get the second we can interact with the second statue etc

[juliodiaz]

Wow, you were spot on. I appreciate you, thanks!

[MrWrighthw]

Thank you. I saw the broken blade of strife, but was not sure what it was.

[ReachXEnt]

got broken blade. got to statue. it's lit up, but won't let me activate. ideas?

[SethvC]

Did the fishing rally first last week got the exotic yet when put in the helm tank no broken blade of strife

[jamilahs]

I have yet to do the fishing so it looks like I will have to.

[spideraus]

Any idea why I go to Hawthorne and there's no quest for me? Is it bugged for anyone else?

[kmd]

It's not tied to Hawthorne's fishing rally quest at all (i caught the mothcarp, and placed the broken blade on the statue, before I even picked up the fishing rally, then, out of boredom, completed the fishing rally quest entirely...just requires catching a metric ton of fish)

[kamikaz]

I’m not sure if it was just me but when I interacted with the idol and went to complete the mission, and the second level, I thought I saw three Hive knights that spawned in and the text on the left side said something about “blades of strife”. Anyone else see this? Has it always been there or was I imagining it?

[mike]

I got the second blade but the door isn't opening for me

[Colemecork]

What happens if I planted the blade at the first statue but didn’t know what to do next and just finished the mission am I screwed and gotta refish for the blade?

[hitemhard]

I caught the fish but didn't get the quest 😢. Anyone hear about that?

Edit: if you don't get the quest, just go to the statue. It wasn't in my inventory, but I could still activate the statue and complete the step.

[Timmerson-y]

I got the fish but no broken blade do I need to get all 5?

[Illix]

Should I dunk the first blade right now or wait until I have all 3 blades & dunk them in 1 deep dive run?

[spardante]

I turn 4 of yhe whisper carps but got nothing just exotics armor

[Killasim]

I'm guessing after you finish the 2nd encounter that's when the door will open for the 2nd statue, becuz it's a closed door otherwise!!!

[JRobbbbb]

Getting an exotic or even a legendary fish would be nice. I think I’ve gotten two legendary fish total and no exotics since fishing became a thing this season

[matthewpople]

There are 3 statues in the boss room along with the 3 you mention that do something too, I'm not sure what tho. When the ogres appear there's a message about "flames in the deep are extinguished" or something similar. When the ogres are killed the statues revert to being on fire. Good there is a proper quest as this week's story mission was a bit pathetic.

[brynj]

Can't even interact with the first statue after grabbing the fish
