In an interview with GamesRadar discussing the wider future of the live service title, game director Robbie Stevens elaborated, \u201cWe have an Exotic mission coming in Echoes Act Three. It is one of the biggest we\u2019ve ever built, and it\u2019s only possible because of this new content cadence.\u201d As for the mission\u2019s name and rewards, Stevens didn\u2019t divulge any specifics on either front, though did confirm that it, like Episode: Echoes as a whole, has ties to Nessus. Act 1 of Echoes wrapped up on June 25. Instead of launching Guardians straight into the Episode\u2019s middle chapter, Bungie confirmed in June 27\u2019s This Week in Destiny that Act 2 kicks off on July 16, giving players three weeks of breathing room. Reacting to Stevens\u2019 comments on Reddit, one user voiced their hope that Echoes\u2019 Exotic mission won\u2019t follow suit with Dual Destiny\u2019s status as a timed affair. \u201cI swear if the new Exotic mission is another timed mission. I want to enjoy the environments, not stare at a timer the entire time,\u201d they said. \u201cYeah. We need some proper immersive experience,\u201d another agreed, adding \u201cDon\u2019t mind difficult Dungeon-like encounters like in Avalon as well, as long as they\u2019re not times and haven\u2019t any forced cooperative mechanics that make them inaccessible for any solo play.\u201d Others suggested both playstyles could be accommodated. \u201cI personally think they should put a timer on every Exotic mission for an emblem and bragging rights, and remove all required timers. If you like speedrunning, go for it. If you don\u2019t, be a snail,\u201d they said. Ultimately, Guardians will just have to wait and see what option Bungie decides to go with. Three Exotic missions are currently available in Destiny 2. Two of these \u2013 Zero Hour and The Whisper \u2013 are static, while the third rotates weekly.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Destiny 2 Episode: Echoes Exotic mission teased as \u201cliterally one of the biggest\u201d BungieDestiny 2\u2019s upcoming dedicated Episode: Echoes Exotic mission has been teased as \u201cliterally one of the biggest\u201d to date by Bungie.
