You will need to equip a Year 2 or Spektar Class item as the current Year 3 Class items are bugged and will not count towards the quest. If you do not have a Spektar Class item, you'll need to open Chroma Faction Packages until you get one. [quote][b]Exotic Faction Class Items[/b] As noted below in the 2.4.0 Known Issues List, respawn animations granted by Exotic Faction Class Items are not functioning properly. Additionally, we are aware that many Faction Class Items are not able to progress Exotic Faction Quests. Players may progress these Quests if they equip any Year 2 or Spektar Faction Class Items.[/quote] https://www.bungie.net/en/Forum/Post/213318340/0/0
