It’s Friday again, which means that the mysterious merchant Xur has stepped out of the shadows to offer the Guardians of Destiny 2 his exotic goods. So be ready to browse your collection of exotic armors and weapons and exchange Legendary Shards for them.
What happened this week in Destiny 2? The Iron Banner event returned this week and gave the Guardians the opportunity to fight for glory and rewards in intense PvP battles. As it should for the relaxed Season 21 with the mode Control
.
In addition, the Guardians have rediscovered an old love, as Bungie has blessed it with 8 buffs. That makes the old Exo Malfeasance
a real monster and can even score in the endgame.
But other exotics are also back. Players are currently discovering options with the Arc shotgun “Legend of Acrius” and using the new, albeit ugly, Warlock helmet Zenopath Mask for surge rifles.
In the Lightfall story, a certain thing is becoming more and more apparent, which you may have already seen in the first trailer for the next Destiny 2 DLC The Final Shape
: The River of Souls
. Osiris learns about him from Nimbus and also reports to Ikora.
All info about Xur on June 2, 2023 – PS4, PS5, PC, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X|S
When does Xur come? Xur, the Agent of the Nine, appears in Destiny 2 every Friday at 7:00 PM. His visit then ends again on the following Tuesday at 7:00 PM. During this time, Guardians can purchase exotic items from him.
Where is Xur? This is his camp for the weekend
Xur’s position: Xur’s location changes every week, making it a small challenge for the players to find him. MeinMMO is, however, always hot on his heels and posts his location every Friday, so you don’t have to search for long.

What does Xur have on offer? Even in the Lightfall DLC, Xur does not tire of doing business. The nice “I am the messenger of the Nine” conversation is included for free, as every weekend.
And here it is certainly worth listening more closely, as the Nine seem to be getting a bigger role in Destiny 2 soon. At least if we believe the Vagabond in Season 21, who says they always knew where the journey was heading.

Xur sells not only the current but also Legendary items and offers unique rolls for exotics from no longer available exotic missions of past DLCs every week. However, please note: You can only buy the weapons if you also own the appropriate expansion.
Currently, he has these two weapons on offer:
- The exotic hand cannon “The Lament” (Beyond Light DLC) with Moving Target
- The exotic scout rifle “Tale of a Dead Man” (Beyond Light DLC) with Lawless
Lord Saladin will dominate the weekend in PvP
This weekend, the Guardians have to do without the sweaty Trials of the 14th Holy. Because it’s Iron Banner time and both events don’t mix well together.
Unlike in the PvP endgame, “Trials of Osiris”, the Iron Banner is not just about winning at all costs, but also about having fun.
- The Iron Banner requires skill, strategy, and above all teamwork. Because those who fight alone will quickly realize that they have worse chances against collaborating enemies.
So grab your favorite weapon, howl in a pack and show everyone who the real ruler of the Iron Banner is.
Which mode is being played this week? Currently, you can experience “Control” in the Iron Banner. So quite classic, which is what many Guardians like best.
This loot is available in the Iron Banner: In the Iron Banner, Guardians can earn and also focus on many weapons.
- The Void grenade launcher “Raven Swarm” is returning with a rapid-fire frame. It is a guarantee for high damage numbers with smart grenades. All other perks are helpful but not a “must have”.
- Additionally, a new weapon is coming to the Iron Banner, which will be a strand fusion rifle. What it can do, players will be able to discover from this evening.
In addition, the origin perk “Stealthy Wolf” ensures that with these weapons at low health and successful kills against guardians, you have improved radar and are removed from the enemy radar.
Furthermore, Lord Saladin offers armor focusing from old seasons, so you can now complete your collection directly.
When does the Iron Banner officially end? Lord Saladin’s PvP activities end with the weekly reset on June 6 at 7:00 PM. That is also the departure time of Xur.
That was all the info for the weekend in Destiny 2 and the offer from Xur and Lord Saladin. Specifically, the Iron Lord creates a pleasant competitive atmosphere upon his appearance as the players fight with him in a more relaxed atmosphere than in Trials for glory, honor, and exclusive gear.
What are your best exotic weapons or armors that Xur has ever dropped for you? And which mode is your favorite in the Iron Banner? Feel free to share your thoughts, experiences, and recommendations with us and the Destiny 2 community.
