Now, we’ve all been trying to figure out how to get an Exotic Class Item in Destiny 2, and Bungie’s gone ahead and made sure the process was pretty difficult. I mean, come on. Exotic Class Items give us the opportunity to use an Exotic that has two Exotic Perks combined rather than just one. If anyone could just finish a quick quest to grab one right away without any effort, Destiny would probably just become too easy and entirely lose its appeal. Let’s take a look at how to get Exotic Class Items in Destiny 2: The Final Shape.
Complete Overthrow
The first thing you need to do to unlock the Dual Destiny mission that rewards your first Exotic Class Item is to complete Overthrow in The Landing, The Blooming, and The Impasse. All three Overthrows must be completed without heading back to Orbit in between. However, after you complete each Overthrow, follow the steps below before you head on to the next location, as it’s timed.
Defeat the Taken Wizards
After you complete Overthrow, a Taken Wizard will spawn within each region, but you must kill them before the five-minute timer to start the next Overthrow begins in each area.
- The Landing – Near the caves to the right of the Landing Zone, near the Lost Sector entrance.
- The Blooming – Area at the back of the map that has a Taken Eye over it when there is an Overthrow event.
- The Impasse – The area just to the right of the Lost Sector entrance.
Defeat Subjugators
After you’ve completed each Overthrow and the Taken Wizards, you’ll see a big green light appear above The Refraction. Head there and fight two Subjugators. Each of them will let you take their health down about halfway, then disappear and leave an orb for you to pick up and dunk in an area behind you. Keep in mind there is a timer on this portion too, so try to be speedy.
Now, the Dual Destiny mission will appear on your map as a node in the Pale Heart destination.
Destiny 2: The Final Shape is now available on PC, Xbox, and PlayStation consoles.
