New Exotics from Old Locations (Destiny)

Just saw this. Should make some of us happy to have a chance to get the new exotics from VoG and Crota.

It's been frustrating only having the Nightfalls and CE to try and get the Forth Horseman, especially since VoG is still the best activity in the game.

Wait. Why can't you get the 4th horseman from the Vault of Glass?

I assume because it's a TDB Exotic. I've never seen anyone get anything but Vanilla exotics in VoG, so I inferred that they can't drop there.

I could be totally wrong, but I always thought the exotic drops all came from the same pool (except for the Mythoclast). People get 331 exotics from Vault of Glass, meaning it has to be drawing from an updated pool, right?

If you can find any evidence to the contrary, great, but everything I've read and seen indicates it hasn't dropped for anyone there.

Because it's a PS exclusive?

I've also never seen DB or that terrible primary sniper.

Now that you mention it, I'm certain I've seen Dragon's Breath drop during the Vault of Glass. But I have no way to prove that, so there's always the possibility that my memory is playing tricks on me.

Yeah, but I remember that pool updating to include >300 versions well after the launch of TDB, so they must have an activity-specific list.

New Exotics from Old Locations

After the bad rollout of loot in The Dark Below it really feels like someone at Bungie ordered from on high that enough was enough and that the game should actually be player friendly with regards to loot.
