Exos are subject to a number of unique medical conditions, being Dissociative Exomind Rejection (DER) and spontaneous Exo reset syndrome.<ref>'''Bungie (2019/3/5)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Season of Opulence]], Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Lore]]: [[Lore:Dust#The_Stacks|Dust]]''</ref> The former is a serious and ultimately fatal cognitive disorder caused by living minds rejecting the new body, and the latter is an involuntary self-reset that can occur without any immediately apparent cause or warning.
