    There are no new exotics of any kind in 1.6.

    What can possibly drop in a cache in 1.6 that can't now?
    I'm truly asking.
    That would only be the Eir, intended to be used as a pair with the Hildr (Hildr= former Midas).

    but Eir and Hidr + Midas dropped for me from exotic caches whe i played PTS
    for wht i have heard they splitted the valkyr into 2 seperate weps (eir/hildr)
    so u still can obtain the Midas IF u r lucky,and even want it
    it took me around 60 exotic caches to drop the first midas
    tons of shotguns and pistols.....which i do not use very bad Lottery eehh RNG

    I stand corrected. You are entirely right. It's not midas but valkyria the one they are splitting in half. So, those two (hildr/eir) are the new exotic weapons that could be received from FPCs. I heard also somewhere that other named items that drop only from particular activities (and not from FPC) such as the ninja BP, hungry hog, Tommy gun will be integrated into the FPC algorithm post 1.6.

    If you have weekly caches are plan on trying to build a small stock of them before the update, definitely hang on to them because they will drop an Exotic item in Update 1.6 even if you collect them before the patch.

    I'm hoping to grab a Showstopper and Urban MDR on the few I have saved up.

    Hi, just to clarify... Is it ONLY the 1.5 Weekly caches that will drop Exotics when 1.6 is released? No other saved caches will have a chance to drop an exotic item that are obtained in 1.5. I have a LOT of FPCs, Combat Assignment Caches and others that I will open now if there is no chance of Exotic items.

    Thanks!

    FPC have always had the chance. Nothing changes.
    If you wait,they might have better gear with newer bonuses though.

    I don't think Combat Assignments have a chance though. Just better bonuses in 1.6 maybe.

    I'm holding dozens of caches just for the Phoenix Credit cap change.
    I'm tired of leaving a pile of them on the floor at my feet when I open a cache. lol
