They will be marked as little plus signs on your map screen.<\/p>\n<p>Once you have opened all nine of these golden chests and collected the Lost Encryption Bits (make sure your consumable inventory isn\u2019t full when collecting the Bits, as they might not drop if you have no room to hold them!) you need to speak to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/technology\/gaming\/destiny-2-micah-10-explained\/\">Micah-10<\/a> and complete the Alone in the Dark questline.<\/p>\n<p>Collect the six Cysts (check the video above \u2013 timestamp: 4:35 \u2013 for the locations) and then head to The Impasse (around 7:08 in the video above) to find the chest containing the Legendary Khvostov.<\/p> <p>Now you have the Legendary version of the Khvostov, <b>it\u2019s time to unlock its more powerful Exotic version<\/b>.<\/p>\n<p>To unlock the Exotic Khvostov auto rifle in Destiny 2, you need to collect all 17 Motes of Light. Before you collect those, though, you need to spawn the golden chest containing the Exotic Khvostov in The Pale Heart by finding and placing all eight Traveler Statues.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s best to follow this helpful YouTube video by Skarrow9 to find the location of the eight Traveler Statues:<\/p>\n<iframe title=\"NEXT STEP FOR THE EXOTIC KHVOSTOV FOUND!!

These are the 17 Motes of Light.<\/p>\n<p>To find the Motes of Light around The Pale Heart, it\u2019s again best to follow a YouTube video guide by Skarrow9 for the locations (you\u2019ll get eight of the 17 Motes of Light from collecting the Traveler Statues):<\/p>\n<iframe title=\"NEXT STEP FOR THE EXOTIC KHVOSTOV FOUND!!

Each of the nine bosses should drop a Mote of Light.<\/p>\n<p>Pick them all up and the final Golden Mote of Primordial Light should drop. Now you have this, you can go back to the golden chest spawned by the eight Traveler Statues and unlock it to get the Exotic Khvostov in Destiny 2.<\/p>\n<p>[squirrel-affiliate-playlist squirrel_playlist_id=\u201d653\u2033 \/]<\/p>\n<p><strong>Check out more of our <a title=\"https:\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/technology\/gaming\/\" href=\"https:\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/technology\/gaming\/\">Gaming<\/a> coverage or visit our <a title=\"https:\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/tv\/tv-listings\/\" href=\"https:\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/tv\/tv-listings\/\">TV Guide<\/a> and <a title=\"https:\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/streaming-guide\/\" href=\"https:\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/streaming-guide\/\">Streaming Guide<\/a> to find out what\u2019s on.
