In the 6/15/23 This Week In Destiny, Bungie said this:

As usual, we’re making an Exotic catalyst for an older Exotic weapon in S22, and this is one that’s been heavily requested, and is likely the most complex catalyst we’ve ever made.

What exotic weapon do you think this is talking about?

My guess is Thorn; it’s old (not base game from D2, but base game in D1 and one of the original exotics we ever heard of), iconic (see previous note), and has been power crept by Osteo Striga. As for what would make a Thorn catalyst complex, well, I have no clue.

My other exotic I hope it could be referring to, but don’t really think they are, is Wish Ender. No good reasons here, other than it’s old.

What are your predictions?

    My bet is Monte Carlo. They hinted at doing something with the bayonet a couple months ago and that feature has been requested a lot.

      I’d love that but I haven’t touched non heavy exotics in multiple seasons so I don’t even know if it’d get use beyond niche builds.

      When did they mention that? I must’ve missed that.

      I’d love for them to add that to Monte Carlo, but part of me can’t help but worry it would just be bad. They’ve added similar functionality to Forerunner with its grenade, but I’d assume something similar on Monte Carlo would also be similarly underwhelming, albeit cool.

    The last word is another possibility. I don’t think it’s particularly likely but a catalyst that gives it some pve viability would be cool. They could even tack on a unique interaction with lucky pants which would add to the mentioned complexity.
