Destiny 2: Where Is Xur Today? Location and Exotic Items for April 8 [IGN]

View Article on IGN

The man with no plan, Xûr, is now live in Destiny 2 for the weekend until next week’s reset. If you’re looking to get your some shiny new Exotic armor or weapons for your Guardian, look no further.

Each week, Xûr has a random assortment of Exotic armor, one for each Guardian class, as well as a random Exotic Weapon and an Exotic Engram available for purchase. In addition to his Exotic wares, he’s got a random collection of Legendary weapons and armor to deck out your Guardians.

We’ve rounded up all the info on Xûr for the week including where to find Xûr, which Exotic weapons and armor are available, as well as which Legendary weapons you should pick up, either for PvE or PvP.

Where Is Xûr Today?

Xûr can be found at Winding Cove in the EDZ on April 8 through April 12. To reach him, travel to the landing point at Winding Cove. When you arrive, make for the rock cliffs at the far end of the cove and look for a cave winding up to a platform next to some Fallen. There you’ll find the freakish salesman we all adore.

Xûr can be found atop a rocky cliff in the Winding Cove in the EDZ.

What’s Xûr Selling Today?

Great news, everyone! Bungie fixed Xûr’s issues and he’s once more selling some decent rolls for armor! Praise be! Xûr’s got some good weapons to use in The Witch Queen‘s endgame content. Check it out!

Exotic Engram

Crimson – Exotic Hand Cannon

Aeon Swift – Exotic Hunter Gauntlets

  • 3 Mobility
  • 7 Resilience
  • 20 Recovery
  • 6 Discipline
  • 17 Intellect
  • 10 Strength
  • Total: 63

Ursa Furiosa – Exotic Titan Gauntlets

  • 25 Mobility
  • 8 Resilience
  • 2 Recovery
  • 2 Discipline
  • 6 Intellect
  • 23 Strength
  • Total: 66

Sunbracers – Exotic Warlock Gauntlets

  • 8 Mobility
  • 21 Resilience
  • 3 Recovery
  • 8 Discipline
  • 9 Intellect
  • 12 Strength
  • Total: 61

The highlight here are the Ursa Furiosa roll, which has the highest stats of the bunch, although it’s worth mentioning that a Strength/Mobility build on a Titan has gotta be a very specific use case. Still, this Exotic is invaluable for Titans hoping to do Grandmaster Nightfall Strikes. The Hunters’ Aeon Swift also has high stats, but that Exotic isn’t great, in this Guardian’s humble opinion.

Exotic Weapons

Each week Xûr sells Hawkmoon & Dead Man's Tale.

Dead Man’s Tale – Exotic Scout Rifle

Hawkmoon and Dead Man’s Tale are both great weapons, but his week’s roll for Hawkmoon is especially spicy for PvP players as the Quickdraw perk is a perfect pairing for this PvP-centric hand cannon.

Stella Incognita Cloak

I’m a little less excited by the Hunter offerings this week, though the chest piece and gauntlets are pretty decent rolls. Everything is better than what we’ve been getting for the past couple of months regardless!

Woohoo! Xur is fixed and it feels good to have the ol’ gun trader back!

That’s a wrap on Xûr for this week, Guardians! Hope you’re all enjoying your adventures in the Witch Queen‘s throne world. Did you vote for Team Mechs or Team Monsters this week? Hopefully Team Mech (right?)! For more on Destiny, check out some of the new weapons and gear you can find in The Witch Queen and read about how Sony’s purchase of Bungie fits into its larger plans.
