Unfortunately I wasn’t able to grab this earlier but wanted to ask if anyone knew what I’d need to grind to get the threaded needle to drop?
Thanks peeps
level 1
No can do. Its sources were removed at the end of last season. Your only hope now is that it's sold by either Banshee or Xur (though I have no idea if it is in either of their loot pools).
level 2
Thanks, fingers crossed it turns up somewhere
level 2
I think Light.gg lists it as part of Xur’s loot pool now, and he’s brought hunt and splicer weapons the last couple weeks.
level 1
I might be wrong, but currently i don't think you can
level 2
More context please? Do you mean it’s not dropping from any activity or vendor at all? So there is no way to get it?
level 1
The only way to get it is from xur now.
level 1
Bungie removed umbral focusing for it, which was it's only drop source, so there's no way to get it now :(
level 2
It dropped from battlegrounds too but I think the loot pool was updated

How to get the Threaded Needle Destiny 2 – Season of the Lost
These are the steps to unlock the Threaded Needle, you will need Parallax Trajectory, and a few Umbral Engrams to Decrypt at the HELM’s Prismatic Recaster (Requires Destiny 2 Season of the Lost / Beyond the Light Deluxe Edition):
- Open the Prismatic Recaster’s menu (Check here how to unlock the Psimatic Recaster)
- Select the Active Season option
- Hover over the fourth Engram of the first section (Tools of the Chosen), you will need:
- x1 Umbral Engram: get them from any event, including Crucible matches and Strike missions
- x5 legendary Shards: You should already have them
- x150 Parallax Trajectory: Season 15’s currency
This is the easiest method of getting the Threaded Needle, but if you’re interested, and you purchased Season of the Chosen, there is an alternative method

How to get the Threaded Needle Destiny 2 – Past Content
These steps require Season of the Chosen, if you purchased it:
- Main Menu > Season of the Chosen subscreen,
these are the options
- Chosen Implements: Random Piece of gear (weapon or armor)
- Chosen Arms: Random weapon from Season 13
- Explosion and Detonation: Code Duello or Threaded Needle (random and costs 3 hammer charges)
- Chosen Destruction: Same as Explosion and Detonation, but the weapon (Code Duello or Threaded Needle) will have a perk choice and it costs 5 Hammer Charges
So you can play it at random rewards (Chosen Implements & Chosen Arms), which do not cost hammer charges. Or play it safe and farm hammer charges first, although you will always have a maximum 50% chance of getting Threaded Needle with Explosion and Detonation & Chosen Destruction
How to Farm Hammer Charges?
Season of the Chosen > Battlegrounds
If you upgrade the Hammer of Proving you will earn more Hammer charges at the end of each Battleground. If you fully upgrade the Hammer of Proving you can earn up to 3 Hammer charges per Battleground
