We're still months away before fans can finally kick Prince Uldren's royal behind and finally avenge Cayde-6's death in "Destiny 2's" upcoming expansion - "Forsaken." While waiting for the third DLC to drop, the community has been on a grind lately now that a new installment of the Faction Rally event recently went live and Exotic Catalysts are now up for grabs. That said, the game's API has just been updated and it showcased several Exotic Catalysts that were previously undisclosed.

Also, it may well seem that the update has just confirmed that Armsweek will finally be included in the game.

Details about these catalysts have been brought to light over on light.gg and it was then posted over on Destiny's subreddit by u/Eander. According to the Redditor, he claims that five of the ECs will be coming from Armsweek while the remaining three will be from both raid and raid prestige modes.
