The Current raid exotic shell has a perk on it that reads as followed:
[u]Seeker of Brilliance[/u]
In addition to their normal rewards, encounters on the Leviathan can award Bright Engrams. This chance increases each time no Bright Engram drops.
This mod could easily apply to the other end game game modes giving a different award RNG increase that applies to each game mode.
Strike Shell: In addition to their normal rewards, [i]completing Nightfall Strikes[/i] now grant a higher chance of earning an[i] exotic catalyst[/i]. This chance increases each time no[i] exotic catalyst[/i] drops. If all exotic catalysts have been earned then this perk grants higher chances of dropping masterworks gear.
-The NF shell can drop at higher rates as your score increases. You also need to be above a level 50 in the Vanguard rank for a chance of having it drop.
Crucible Shell: In addition to their normal rewards, [i]completing matches[/i] now grant a higher chance of earning an[i] exotic catalyst[/i]. This chance increases each time no[i] exotic catalyst[/i] drops. If all exotic catalysts have been earned then this perk grants higher chances of dropping masterworks gear.
-The Crucible shell only drops when you are in a winning streak (after 2 consecutive wins) and increases its chances the better the win streak gets (to a max of 5 games).
Escalation Protocol Shell: In addition to their normal rewards, [i]level 7 bosses[/i] now grant a higher chance of dropping [i]Ikelos weapons[/i]. This chance increases each time no [i]Ikelos weapons[/i] drop.
-The EP shell can drop from any boss wave completion but increases its drop rate the further you get in EP. (for example, the first boss wave has a .08% chance to drop or something ridiculous like that).
Now these drop chance numbers will still be very low, however, having it done a way like this will reward the dedicated players without just increasing the drop rate for everyone. It wont reward everyone the same way, only the diehards and the players who truly deserve to wear theses shells.

The shells should also all grant 10% more exp while in those game modes along with the Seeker of Opulence perk. (3 perks minimum for all exotic shells).
