As many of you may know, someone recently made a post proving that the had found the new titan exotic "Twilight Garrison", which seems to be extremely rare considering, to my knowledge, they are the only person in the game who has it. Also, according to their own post, they claim to have gotten it from a random exotic engram drop from a boss. But why is it so rare? Isn't that what everyone is doing right now? Everyone is just killing bosses for engrams. BUT. Ask yourself one question. [i]WHERE[/i] is everyone farming right now? I can guarantee that 99.9% of you are going to say "Vanguard Strikes, duh." Well I think that is precisely the problem.
Just like how these new Stike bosses have their own Legendary drops exclusive to them (ie: Dark Blade drops the legendary Dark Blade Helm for Titans), I think that there are some bosses that have exotic drops exclusive to them. I also think that these bosses are NOT strike bosses, but rather, bosses in story missions. Maybe even the old story mission bosses drop exclusive exotics, I just don't know. It would be very interesting to know which boss this person who got Twilight Garrison killed. It could shed a [i]little light[/i] on this theory.
One piece of very convincing evidence I came across was when I was just casually looking through the Armory on here. I noticed a very familiar looking set of exotic arms for the Titan. (Sorry I'm only looking into and talking about Titan armor. That happens to be my main. Titan master race of whatever.)

Notice anything familiar? There was a certain Valus Centurion boss during the new story that was taken by Three wizards. I completely forgot his name, but you fight him later when he comes out of a portal with his fat, wart faced ogre buddy during the regicide mission. These are EXACTLY the same arms that he's wearing. Does anyone have these arms yet? Not that I'm aware of. Have any of you used a Three of Coins specifically for this boss? I doubt it. Would everyone please band together and test this theory? I can't do it by myself. I'm bringing this theory out there for all of us to test and theory-craft and figure out how to get these new exotics. Mainly just because I reaaaaaaally want Twilight Garrison. Test away, people.
Also, if anyone could find out who has Twilight Garrison, ask them which boss they killed, and report back here, it would mean the world to me. xoxo
Edit: I found the Cabal's name. He's Primus Ta'aun. Here's a pic of him with those sweet, sweet, manly arms:

Edit 2: I found the post of the person who has the Twilight Garrison:

Edit 3: We made it to Trending everyone! Keep searching and hope for the best! I'm out of Three of Coins, so it's up to you guys and gals.
Also, the one who found the Twilight Garrison said he got the engram drop from Draksis. I don't know how solid this evidence is though, considering he's being very hush-hush about specific details. Good luck out there Guardians!

I got "Twilight Garrison" when farming exotic engrams, I infused it becuase it was rubbish
-
Zur will sell it eventually.
-
Can any hunter's look at the hunter gauntlets Shinobu's Vow and see if they look like anything from a boss, like the Thagomizers? It hinted that it must be Earth-based, and that it was a hunter that guided refugees. Other than that I don't know.
-
This wouldn't surprise me. I know Borderlands had specific legendaries linked to certain bosses.
-
Was curious actually What about it as a PVP drop? Twilight Gap is a map and all idk. Not sure how you'd trigger that but just a thought anyway
-
I smell a clue, do you smell a clue?
-
I need these...bump
-
Eh i just tested it out got an exotic arms but it turned into immolation fists

Edited by Kriegar3: 9/28/2015 9:59:12 AMKilled Primus on Regicide and got an Exotic helmet engram, got Saint 14 Y2 from it. Win.
-
Has anyone tried them on the old raid bosses?
-
Bungie even recommended before TTK came out to try out the story missions again when it does come out....interesting...
-
has anyone not checked the guys who got the twilight's recent games? that might help clear up whether or not he had a chance of getting it from there, just sayin....
-
Every exotic chest piece i got for my hunter turned into alpha lupi and not the new arachnid one.
-
Edited by b e a n: 9/28/2015 2:05:43 AMThe guy who got Twilight Garrison killed Draksis. Last time I checked, Draksis wasn't wearing that chest piece.
-
Dune Marchers Exotic boots for Titan are missing as well and they are what I want! Bungie better not be holding them back!
-
I know that on the daily from Thursday where we have to get to the bridge on the cabal ship the boss is wearing the hunter skyburner helmet.
-
Would explain why people found so many repeats on that one boss everyone farmed. This is the most likely answer.
-
Just tried 60 three of coins on draksis but didn't get it. Did get about 8 exotic engrams and one turned in to the supercell. Thanks for the motivation tho
-
Saw someone saying on his thread that based on activity one of the likely possibilities was him getting it from The Coming War somehow assuming it really wasn't an engram drop. It does look like cabal armor and the perk resembles their jump jets so that might work, garrison sounds like a word that'd be used in association with Cabal gear, and rather than Twilight Gap it could be referring to something completely different(darkness coming if it's the first mission of TTK, or maybe even just time of day during the mission). If we don't see more start popping up before the mission goes back to daily it may be worth looking into.
-
Personally i hope drops are as random as you can get, makes it more interesting. If everyone knew how to get or where to go to get then that would be so boring making it an unkown random thing keeps it interesting. It's also the reason i didn't Exotic farm i don't want them all or most within a week i'd rather have them drop when i'm least expecting it.
-
It probably won't matter but I'm about to start using the reefs crypt arch
-
Every time I've fought the echo of oryx he's dropped a yellow. No joke Could be completely coincidental. But I like your theory
-
Edited by Chubbums: 9/28/2015 7:13:34 AMWhich cryptarch decoded it as well? I know a lot of my engrams turned into TTK exotics but whether or not there is a problem with Rahool's loot table is something I'd like to find out.

Me and 3 friends used 3OC on all bosses in that mission, i got a special weapon engram and my friends got nothing on the 3 runs we did
-
Or dragon is helping Bungie test the exotic, just to make sure it wasn't too ridiculous.
