*'''Roaming Interceptor''' - On worlds with Cabal presence, a message can announce that a [[Interceptor Pilot|Psion]] piloting an [[Interceptor]] is starting to roam an area. They will engage with any foes they encounter, possibly disrupting a Public Event, but continue on after a while. While defeating them doesn't give special rewards, it allows players to use the Interceptor for themselves.

*'''Jump Gates''' - On worlds with [[Vex]] presence, a series of [[Jump Gate]]s may appear around an area, guarded by [[Elite|Quantum]] Vex. Defeating a pair of combatants will activate their jump gate, which will launch the player towards another group of combatants guarding a gate, and so on, eventually returning to the first gate. Once a full lap is completed, [[Storm Minotaur]]s will appear at the gates, alongside other troops. Each Minotaur killed will drop a chest, as if they were High-Value Targets. This event occurs on [[Nessus]] and [[Io]].
*'''[[Prisoner Exchange]]''' - On worlds with a Vex presence, such as [[Nessus]], [[Io]] and [[Mercury]], a [[Minotaur Guard]] guarding an energy cage with an [[Ultra]] will appear. This event also occurs on [[Europa]], were a Storm Minotaur guards a cage imprisoning an Elite Fallen. Eliminating the Minotaur will drop nothing, but will make the energy shield around the prisoner disperse, releasing it. Defeating this enemy will drop a loot chest which could contain reputation tokens, engrams or pure loot. In Flashpoints, sometimes the health and loot drops of the prisoner were 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. After a while, the Minotaur and its prisioner will disappear.


*'''Flashpoint Bosses''' - During a [[Flashpoint]], Majors will spawn near Public Events such as the [[War Hound]]. These units will have a significantly large health pool and when defeated will drop loot, glimmer, reputation tokens and possibly engrams.

*'''[[Supply Retrieval]]''' - This event occured only during [[Faction Rallies]]. For the duration of a Rally, the [[Red Legion]] or [[House of Dusk]] will drop four supply crates which will be guarded by standard troops and [[Retrieval Specialist]] [[Incendior]]s or [[Stealth Tracker]] [[Marauder]]s. Capture each crate to earn a faction token. Once three out of four crates are captured, a [[Quartermaster]] [[Colossus]] or [[Vendetta Shank]] [[Heavy Shank]] will arrive to defend the fourth crate. After all crates are captured, a loot chest will appear with Public Event-level rewards. This event occurs in the [[European Dead Zone]], [[New Pacific Arcology]], [[Arcadian Valley]], and [[Echo Mesa]].

*'''Vex Invasion''' - This event occured during [[Season of the Undying]], on the Moon. After a [[Public Event]] was completed, the [[Sol Divisive]] would open a gate and send in an invasion force. Waves of Vex would start pouring in, led by a [[Gate Lord (enemy)|Gate Lord]]. Killing the Gate Lord would make the Vex retreat and start another invasion in the same area. When three of them were killed, the invasion would stop and players would be awarded Powerful Gear. If enough [[Angelic]]s were killed in each wave, there was a chance an [[Overlord]] would appear after the third Gate Lord's destruction. Defeating it would grant Pinnacle Gear.

*'''Strange Signal''' - On Europa, in the [[Asterion Abyss]], a group of Vex led by a [[Wyvern Venator]] may appear, announced by a message. Killing the Venator will give the player the "Strange Signal" buff, which allows them to encounter the [[Friendly Harpy]] in the [[Nexus (location)|Nexus]]. Though the Venator can enventually respawn, only one Strange Signal quest may be completed each week.
