Friday is, as always, Xur day. The wiggly faced trader from beyond the Void brings rare items and cool gubbins for us to buy. Xur no longer shows up on the in-game map though, nor is he tied to the Flashpoints, so we tracked him down for you.
Where Is Xur
This week, you can find Xur in the Tower! It seems he didn’t want to venture too far from friendly faces with Barons on the loose.
What Is Xur Selling
This week, Xur is selling his usual stock of an armor item for each class, and a weapon. All these items are Exotics. Xur is also selling the Five of Swords.
Prometheus Lens – Trace Rifle
Young Ahamkara’s Spine – Hunter Gauntlets
Nezarec’s Sin – Warlock Helmet
Ashen Wake – Titan Gauntlets
What Should You Buy?
Call it suspicion, but it’s always worth having the first weapon that Xur sells before a Raid drops, just because sometimes it has proven to be very useful within the Raid. The Prometheus Lens is a fun weapon in its own right and is fantastic for clearing out large groups of enemies. Young Ahamkara’s Spine is one for the collectors only. The Hunter class has much better Exotics that give far better benefits. Unless you specifically play around Tripmines, this item is a bit of a dud.
Nazarec’s Sin isn’t a bad option for Void Warlocks. Void kills will increase your energy gain, and it comes with some perks that will help you out with the bow this week. Finally, Ashen Wake. This, once again, only really buffs one type of grenade, so unless you play around that specifically, there are better options for the class out there.
That is it for Xur this week! If you need help with other aspects of Destiny 2, be sure to check out our Guide Hub.
