*'''[[High-Value Target]]s''' - A special enemy will appear somewhere in the area, accompanied by a brief on-screen notice. Guardians must eliminate them before they depart. This enemy is usually a [[Major]], but can be an [[Ultra]] or an [[Elite]], and can even be followed by a squad of its fellows. Successfully killing the enemy will yield a chest containing [[Glimmer]] and a reputation token. An [[Engram]] may drop from the enemy itself. This event occurs in all locations, with enemies of the faction present there. | *'''[[High-Value Target]]s''' - A special enemy will appear somewhere in the area, accompanied by a brief on-screen notice.

*'''[[Prisoner Exchange]]''' - On worlds with a [[Vex]] presence, such as [[Nessus]], [[Io]], [[Mercury]] and [[Europa]], a [[Minotaur Guard]] or [[Storm Minotaur]] guarding an energy cage with an [[Ultra]] will appear.

In Flashpoints, sometimes the health and loot drops of the Ultra increased, or more enemies were added to the cage. For example in the Mercury Fields of Glass prisoner exchange, three [[Psion Flayers]] joined the [[Brawl Gladiator]] in the cage. | *'''[[Prisoner Exchange]]''' - On worlds with a [[Vex]] presence, such as [[Nessus]], [[Io]], [[Mercury]] and [[Europa]], a [[Minotaur Guard]] or [[Storm Minotaur]] guarding an energy cage with an [[Ultra]] will appear.
