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 gat garrison!

Everyone I was reading the theory and everything I agree with buuut I killed that utra knight just once lowered his health then put ToC on then killed him with my hand cannon and got the hunter(I seriously forgot what its called but its rare and its on my hunter)

Edited by Soulstone_X: 9/28/2015 3:26:41 PMThere are three exotics from each class I have yet seen drop or on anybodys characters. Warlock: - Astrocyte Verse (Helmet) - Ophidian Aspect (Gauntlets) - Transversive Steps (Boots) Titan: - Twilight Garrison (Chest) - [u]This has actually dropped. Forget this one.[/u] - Thagomizers (Gauntlets) - Dunemarchers (Boots) Hunter: - ATS/8 Tarantella (Chest) - Shinobu's Vow (Gauntlets) - Fr0st-EE5 (Boots) Is there anyone out there with these?
-
The guy said he got twilight from an engrams he got while farming Draksis... so yeah.
-
Within the first 3-4 days of release of TTK, I saw someone at the Tower with the Thagomizers and I thought wow those are really cool gloves, but I have yet to see them since.
-
Have we had tenebrous tunnels yet as a daily?
-
It makes sense for twilight garrison to drop from a fallen, assuming it has something to do with twilight gap. But drake is? Think about how many people killed that guy over and over.
-
This seems like a really viable theory. Hopefully we'll know for sure soon!

Edited by kylefly: 10/4/2015 3:44:09 PMI grinded Ta'aun... I dont think it's the way to go... List of drops so far from Ta'aun: https://www.bungie.net/en/Forum/Post/158815290/0/0

Dunno if I'm in the only person who has the exotic warlock chest piece the alchemist (or whatever it's called) or its so bad no one wants to wear t
-
Maybe you need to kill the centurion before he gets taken And in the mission where you steal Crota's soul kill Baxx before Eris pulls you out Just thoughts
-
It does look Fallen in design, but if it decrypts from exotic engrams dropped by Fallen Ultras, shouldn't more have gotten it from farming Draksis?
-
Well, since I just run about with the buff on anyways. I did fight the Taken Colossus in "Outbound Signal" that is wearing Skyburners Annex, he did drop an Exotic Helmet. But it turned into Mask of the Third Man. I do of course have Skyburners already, and didn't have MotTM I'm more of the opinion that its absolutely random, cause I've gotten things like 9 Jade Rabbits from all over, and never seen a special or heavy engram (And have had 1-3 of just about every glove in existence).
-
I used a 3oC on the cabal guy and got literally nothing. I used them for every boss in story but to no avail.

Reply for later?
-
Bumping to find info on Dunemarchers or the Twilight Garrison. I want'm so bad! You might be on to something here.
-
Hunters have a skyburners helmet. Looks just like the cabal's except glowing. I have it on my hunter. Got mine from xur's exotic engram last week.
-
Kobe for later
-
I've got an exotic engram from primus tau'an(the cabal boss), got a year 2 suros...
-
This is actually a very interesting theory
-
Tl;dr
-
So no new edits from yesterday. I'm assuming this has been debunked? Nice thought though.

Edited by MobiusRipper: 9/29/2015 5:04:14 PMWhy do we care so much? Bungie will nerf it anyways....

Met someone with it yesterday, they said they got it from last weeks nightfall reward.

I've been farming story bosses primarily as they seem to have a better drop rate than Taken Champions and strike bosses for me. I farmed Primus Ta'aun and the other ultras when Regicide was the daily heroic. Nothing unusual dropped. I think I picked up No Backup Plans and an Alpha Lupi (hunter). The Gatelord on 240+ has been most generous to me. I picked up the 4th Horseman and Telesto from him. I thought about trying the Court of Oryx, but he last few times I've played, it was an over the top rapid fire Battle Royal. It's fun if there are a bunch of people doing it.

I just want Dunemarchers. Probably something from Mars.
