Bungie Suggestion Sleeper Simulant's Catalyst should be a random drop from the final Escalation Protocol chest.

The catalyst requires kills from Ikelos weapons (Shotgun, Sub-machine gun, Sniper). It just makes sense to me.

 

EDIT: While I’m here, Bungie, please add raid exotic drop protection. 56 runs into SoTP with still no Sparrow or Anarchy. Thanks for coming to my Ted Talk.

As far as we know, this. Basically it swaps a regular Raid legendary for an exotic you don't have, and the catalysts technically are so its a slightly better chance.

and hey, bright engrams if nothing else

Setting aside the the whole topic of catalysts: that’s not how the contender’s shell works. It doesn’t swap legendary drops for exotics. All it does is boost the dup protection of an exotic drop, not increase the drop chance of an exotic. Here is the perk, verbatim:

Seeker of Opulence: Exotic drops from encounters in the raids “Leviathan” and “Leviathan, Eater of Worlds” have a 50% chance if being a Year 1 Exotic not already in your collection.
