Destiny 2 Exotic Mission Rotator: Schedule and loot table this week

The Exotic Mission Rotator returns in The Final Shape, with the fan favorite weekly activity avoiding the content vault. Here’s everything you need to know about the Exotic Mission Rotator in Destiny 2, including how it works, this week’s schedule, and what loot is up for grabs.

Exotic Mission Rotator loot table

Most available Exotic missions have their own unique loot pools for Destiny 2 players to farm. This loot table is made up of old seasonal weapons that are all craftable.
