So I noticed that the Battle Historian seems to have been removed altogether. Does that mean that there is now no way to obtain the item above? I was hoping to use them along with the base Hero weapons to upgrade them to the Exotic variants.

Yeah, it seems as though they can’t be upgraded anymore, however, if you do the reward track for the base weapon (or if you already have the base weapon unlocked) then you unlock the vendor to buy the mistforged hero version of that weapon, either exotic or ascended (just get the exotic, the ascended asks for way more and if you already have an ascended weapon of that type then just trans it). They require memories of battle and some other stuff.
