Issue with 'Benighted Omen' Emblem
Hello,

Does anyone else have an issue not being able to equip or create the above-mentioned emblem? When I try to equip the one in my inventory, it says "Requires Ownership to Equip" and when I try to create one it says "Exclusive Item".

From my understanding, it along with a ghost shell (Eris Morn Shell) and emote (Hearing Whispers) were promotional items for the Deluxe edition of Shadowkeep, which I'm certain that I purchased years ago (having that stuff in my inventory would suggest that as well). I can create and equip both the emote and ghost shell, though the shell is also marked "Exclusive Item" when in the Collections tab.

I'm guessing it's a bug, but I'm interested if others are having the same issue.

In Season 21 they made a change to how emblem ownership works.

The main thing they were hitting was people doing the following:
- Player A had a rare emblem on their associated Bungie Account - code-redeemed emblems, digital rewards, so anything not earned directly in-game basically.
- Player B pays (usually) Player A to link the two accounts together under Player A's Bungie Account,
- Player B would then see Player A's Bungie Account emblems in their own Collections and could pull a copy of it onto a character.
- The accounts are then unlinked.

Player B would no longer see that emblem in their Collections, but had the emblem on a character regardless, who could then use it at will.

Season 21's change stopped those emblems from working.

However one thing it also did is stopped preorder emblems being used over cross-save. If you have PSN and Steam cross-saved together, and you preordered Shadowkeep on PS, then this change prevents you from using 'Benighted Omen' while you are on Steam. It will still show in Collections but you can only use it when you play on Playstation.

Ah okay, I think the Deluxe stuff was carried over from Xbox so that would explain it.

Thanks for clearing that up!
