There are many different ornaments for Exo armor and weapons in Destiny 2. However, three of these ornaments are so rare that you probably haven’t even seen them. We’ll show you which relics from the past we mean.
What kind of ornaments are they? Either you still have them in your collection as an old veteran or you have seen them somewhere. If not, they should be completely unfamiliar to you, because these three ornaments come from the faction battles from the early days of Destiny 2. These are ornaments for the following Exo armor:
The ornaments, which are in the style of the extinct factions, could be earned for free back then if you really put in the effort. Unfortunately, there is no way to get them now, and those who have them are considered ancient guardians from the early days.
Three ornaments that no one can get anymore
How did the event work? The faction battles event always lasted a week and was rolled out in the DLCs “Curse of Osiris” and “Warmind”. There were three dates per season on which these battles took place. Players could then choose one of the three factions they were allowed to fight for.

The choices were the War Cult of the Future, the New Monarchy and the Dead Orbit. Once you had chosen a faction, you only had to collect tokens through activities such as the Crucible, Vanguard Strikes, Raids or Patrols. Once you had collected enough, you could secure legendary armor ornaments, weapons, catalysts and exotic ornaments in the selected faction.
What happened to the ornaments? Unfortunately, they were put in the vault and Bungie has made sure with its seasons that they really can’t return for good and never again. The reason for this lies in Season 14. Lakshmi, the boss of the Future War Cult, opened a Vex gate in the Last City in Season 14 and caused problems.
She died in the process, and as a result of the events, the Last City and the Vanguard decided to banish the Dead Orbit, the New Monarchy, and the rest of the Future War Cult. Since the parties are no longer officially active in the Last City, there will logically be no more faction fighting.
Still, these relics are a great reminder of the times when Bungie was able to show that they could put on more events than just the Solstice, Halloween, and the Winter Event.
