Exotic Mission Rotator Reward Structure
- Each Exotic mission that enters the Rotator will feature the same reward behaviour.
- Completing one of the featured weekly missions rewards bonus progress for the Xenology quest from Xûr: four points for completing on Normal difficulty, and seven for completing on Legendary.
Weapon Crafting Rewards
- The first completion of the mission on Normal or Legendary difficulty will award an Exotic Deepsight weapon associated with the mission.
- Extracting or dismantling this Deepsight weapon will grant the pattern.
- Each completion of the Normal or Legendary version of the Exotic mission will award an intrinsic upgrade that can be used when crafting the Exotic weapon.
- Each completion of the Legendary version of the Exotic mission will award a Catalyst upgrade for the crafted Exotic weapon.
Armour & Weapon Rewards
- The Normal and Legendary versions of the missions have separate weekly reward lockouts.
- Weekly mission rewards (if weapons or armour are obtainable):
- One guaranteed Deepsight weapon that has not had its pattern unlocked and one armour piece that has not already been obtained (based on your current class).
- If all weapon patterns and armour have been obtained for the in-rotation mission, a random world drop will be awarded.
- On every completion, you will receive an additional weapon from the mission’s weapon pool.
- However, this weapon will have no knockout or guaranteed Deepsight behaviour (the weapon can roll with Deepsight, but this would be on a random percentage chance).
Weekly Challenge
- The Exotic Mission Rotator weekly challenge has the same armour and weapon pool as the Exotic mission which is in rotation.
- The challenge rewards will be output at Pinnacle Power and will prioritize the rewards in the following order:
- One guaranteed Deepsight weapon that has not had its pattern unlocked.
- If weapon patterns have all been unlocked, the challenge will award one armour piece that has not been obtained (based on your current class).
- If all weapon patterns and armour have been obtained for the in-rotation mission, the challenge will output a random weapon or armour.
