Exotic Missions are a series of Quest Missions in Destiny 2 that serve as a means of acquiring certain Exotic Weapons. Many also feature secrets that allow players to earn unique cosmetic items such as Sparrows, jumpships, or Ghost shells.

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]

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.
