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!

Edited by wizardeiges: 9/28/2015 12:35:45 AMHuh,what if some of the unique exotics drop from the lower tier ultras excluding strike bosses. Would be something if oryx on regicide,valus and the ogre on that mission all had unique drops that are only possible with the coins.

Edited by mikeparkinson: 9/28/2015 12:37:51 AMI got a Suros and a monte carlo both years 2 from killing the taken centurion and Oryx in the regicide daily... Saturday I think it was. There was about 15 mins gap between the kills
-
Not sure if this is significant but in the mission where you go to the crota raid area and have to steal crotas essence to transcend me and my mate killed all the ads and when eris started her dialogue about taking us to safety valus taaun appeared on the left side. We tried to kill him but didnt have enough time before getting teleported by eris

Edited by Red Motive: 9/28/2015 12:21:26 AMGet debunked. I asked dragon where he/she got the engram and it was from Scourge of Winter where everyone was farming Exotic engrams. Draksis, that is of course. Don't get me wrong, I wish you were right.

Edited by bobswerski: 9/28/2015 12:25:46 AMI used a three of coins on that mission. I got a legendary engram which turned into the crucible sniper rifle from that guy.
-
Bump for later please
-
Where is the post of the guy finding them?
-
Kill him on the mission where you go stealth and steal crotas soul...
-
Well at least we're getting somewhere with these. I hope they're in the game & not being held back.
-
Pretty sure I have that helmet
-
With the black spindle shenanigans i bet they put ninja exotics/legendaries on story mission bosses. More likely its husk of the pit type items with similar drop rates on seemingly insignificant majors.
-
Very interseting.
-
My first exotic drop were gauntlets, sadly they were ruin wings. I still think you are on the right track.
-
Sounds like you may be on to something.
-
I must try this

Edited by xX Warbuckz Xx: 9/27/2015 11:46:35 PMI played with a guy who had the gauntlets from the shield brothers. They looked pretty cool. I've got taniks cape on my hunter from beating him in a vanguard strike.
-
Bump! Someone bump please :)
-
Personally I think Bungie are just releasing the exotics over time, or unlocking them as you will Maybe it's just a way to keep people playing, to slowly release more of the content over time
-
Sorry to ask but What is the Exact Mission called when you fight Him cause I completely forgot.
-
Edited by Ghost N Things: 9/27/2015 11:42:07 PMYeah i hope this is true but what boss would we get twilight garrison from
-
-
-
Genius! I think I'll go back and play the y1 story bosses to see if I can get anything. Maybe something is that far back.

Edited by SERAPH-X7: 9/27/2015 11:18:02 PMYes! I was waiting for a thread like this. I've been wondering how to get those exotic gauntlets, but that Cabal does have them on so...I hope somebody figures it out. We seen him get taken, then again when we collect Crotas essence and finally with the ogre.

This sounds good! Bump?
