Exotic is the highest tier of items available. Every Exotic piece of equipment has a unique ability that sets itself apart from every other item in the game. However, only one Exotic weapon and one Exotic armor can ever be equipped at any time. Furthermore, to fully upgrade an Exotic item, an Exotic shard is needed, which has to be purchased or acquired from disassembling another Exotic item. In ''[[Destiny 2]]'', special perks are known as [[Intrinsic]]s. Xûr sells [[Engram#engram_types|Fated Engrams]] weekly for the price of 97 [[Legendary Shards]] and other Exotics. | |||
