Exotic Weapons

Exotic Weapons are powerful pieces of equipment that feature unique abilities. Some of these weapons may be acquired through decrypting Exotic Engrams while others are rewarded for completing quests. Note that due to their unique benefits, only one Exotic Weapon may be equipped at any given time.

Any Exotic Weapon that the player has previously acquired can be retrieved from the Blueprints Kiosk in the Tower.
