List of exotic missions
Exotic mission rotator
Beginning in Season 22 following the launch of Lightfall, an Exotic mission rotator will be added that will allow players to play a vaulted Exotic mission, which rotates every week.[1] Weapons associated with missions that enter the rotator will become craftable if they weren't already, and players will also be able to acquire weapons and armor from an associated season (not necessarily the one when the mission was introduced). Players will need to own the expansion tied to the mission or have previously purchased the season tied to the gear in order to play.[2]
Each mission can be played on Normal and Legendary difficulties, where Legendary completion is required to earn the Exotic Catalyst. Regardless of difficulty every completion of a mission will reward the Exotic weapon pattern or an upgraded intrinsic trait for the weapon if it is already acquired. A guaranteed Deepsight seasonal weapon and an unacquired armor piece are rewarded on a weekly reward lockout based on the difficulty played, meaning they can only be acquired by playing each difficulty once each week.[2]
| Exotic mission | Expansion required | Completion rewards |
|---|---|---|
| Presage | Beyond Light or Season of the Haunted | Dead Man’s Tale Season of the Haunted weapons and armor |
| Vox Obscura | The Witch Queen or Season of the Risen | Dead Messenger Season of the Risen weapons and armor |
| Operation: Seraph's Shield | The Witch Queen or Season of the Seraph | Revision Zero Season of the Seraph weapons and armor |
Trivia
- Many exotic missions are considered secret missions, meaning they were added to the game without any prior announcement and are accessible through means unknown until the Destiny community discovers them.
