To obtain the Whisper of the Worm, one must complete a secret mission called [[The Whisper]]. As of January 29, 2019, the mission can be started on any day of the week, with any Public Event in the [[Lost Oasis]] on [[Io]], by killing one of three Taken lieutenants. These lieutenants are called [[Drevis, Aspect of Darkness]], [[Urzok, Aspect of Hate]], and [[Ta'aurc, Aspect of War]]. Upon entering the anomaly, the player is taken to the [[Grove of Ulan-Tan]] [[Lost Sector]] location and will have to navigate through mazes and dark caverns as well as fight through hordes of Taken that spawn through numerous blights, which will wind up in a large boss encounter featuring the lieutenants from before. This mission runs on a timer that is set to exactly twenty minutes, and given the sheer amount of enemies as well as the toughness of the bosses, it is highly recommended to be at an incredibly high Power level and bring a full [[Fireteam]] that matches or surpasses the activity's level. If the mission is completed before the timer runs out, the player is finally awarded the Whisper of the Worm.
Originally, to obtain the Whisper of the Worm, one had to complete a secret mission called [[The Whisper]]. As of January 29, 2019, the mission could be started on any day of the week, with any Public Event in the [[Lost Oasis]] on [[Io]], by killing one of three Taken lieutenants. These lieutenants were called [[Drevis, Aspect of Darkness]], [[Urzok, Aspect of Hate]], and [[Ta'aurc, Aspect of War]]. Upon entering the anomaly, the player was taken to the [[Grove of Ulan-Tan]] [[Lost Sector]] location and would have to navigate through mazes and dark caverns, as well as fight through hordes of Taken that spawn through numerous blights. The player would eventually arrive in a large boss encounter featuring the lieutenants from before. If participants cleared these encounters within the twenty-minute time limit, they would be rewarded with the Whisper of the Worm.


After the weapon is obtained, the Whisper Catalyst can be obtained by running through the Heroic version of The Whisper. Once acquired, it will require players to open six chests throughout the mission, including one that involves shooting [[Oracle]]s not unlike those from [[Vault of Glass (location)|Vault of Glass]]. The order for the Oracles, from left to right, is 1-3-5, 4-6-7-3-1, and finally, 7-3-1-6-4-2-5. Chests award 2% catalyst completion, while completing the mission rewards 24% for a total of 36% per week. Catalyst progression is account-based, so if you do run it on one character, you cannot progress it further on another.

After the removal of Io at the end of the [[Season of Arrivals]], Whisper of the Worm was moved to the [[Monument To Lost Lights]], where it can be purchased for 150,000 [[Glimmer]], 250 [[Baryon Bough]], 2 [[Ascendant Shards]], and an [[Exotic Cipher]]. The catalyst can be obtained by completing playlist activities such as [[Strikes]] or [[Gambit]], and fully unlocked by using Whisper of the Worm to kill enemies.
