With this article, Xur from Destiny 2 has also arrived in the new year. MyMMO is once again on the hunt for the mysterious merchant to inform you of where he has landed and which exotic weapons and armor he has on offer this time.
What happened this week in Destiny? The new year in Destiny 2 kicked off with exciting developments and controversial discussions among the Guardians.
- Players have discovered a gap in weapon crafting that particularly affects the player experience with pulse rifles.
- Another hotly debated topic concerns the significance of finishers in Destiny 2. It is clear that choosing the right finisher is not just limited to stylish animations, but can also offer strategic advantages and tactical synergies.
- The community is, however, divided when it comes to the future of the most important PvP event, the Trials. Some Guardians are pushing for Bungie to save the PvP event to maintain the player base. On the other hand, there are voices that suspect that a possible salvation of the Trials could merely serve to find easier opponents and thus simplify the game.
After taking a look at the current discussions and developments in the world of Destiny 2, we now turn to the mysterious agent of the Nine: Xur.

When does Xur come? He appears in Destiny 2 weekly on Fridays at 6:00 PM and remains present in the game world until the following Tuesday at 6:00 PM. During this time, Guardians from around the world can visit his store and purchase exotic items.
Where is Xur? This is his warehouse for the weekend
Xur’s position: After the reset at 6:00 PM, the search begins and players fly to Xur’s possible locations. The MyMMO editorial team is on it and will tell you where you need to look.

The outbreak rages in the Iron Banner
What’s happening this week in the Iron Banner? This time, Bungie has stuck with the mode and has not switched back to Control. You can still play Outbreak in the Iron Banner. A “Call of Duty” interpretation of killstreaks for Destiny 2.
Just like in “Clash”, you earn points for your kills in “Outbreak”. This pushes your Space abilities significantly. Kills give you and your team ability energy. This increases if you manage to take out a series of opponents without dying. Assists also count during this process.
For your efforts, Season 23 offers several Destiny 1 Iron Banner armor ornaments and of course new weapons.
- You have the chance to earn the sought-after 360 RPM auto rifle “Deadly Embrace” with penetrating casing in the Iron Banner.
- There is also a “Banana” emblem, an Iron Banner shader, and you can earn the “Iron Symmachy” armors from Destiny 1 through engrams.
- Real iron wolves can also crown themselves with a title gilding.
Have you already made your mark in the Iron Banner? Because you must not forget: After this weekend, Lord Saladin will only return to the Tower for Season 23 one last time. This will take place on January 23.
If you want to score really well in the Iron Banner, then grab the Hand Cannon Thorn – preferably with its catalyst: Deadliest weapon in Destiny 2 finally gets what players have been begging for.
