In the MMO shooter Destiny on Friday, November 20th, the alien Xur will offer his wares. What exotic weapons and armor does he have this time?
Last night, Bungie announced the December patch, which will also bring new exotic items. Mainly, Guardians are likely to see some old acquaintances from Year 1 again, but there are also supposed to be two new Year 2 exotics. Additionally, patch 2.1 will shake up the weapon balance; hand cannons and auto rifles will become stronger, while pulse rifles will become weaker.
There was one consequential mistake. They promised that “the raids will be more challenging.” Many excitedly thought, “Raids! Plural!!” and that also applies to the old raids, the Glass Vault and Crota’s End. But game director Luke Smith quickly burst that balloon: No, the Challenge Mode is only coming to King’s Fall.

Where is Xur?
Xur is at the jukebox.
Xur wants strange coins. How do I farm them the fastest?
We covered farming strange coins in this article.
What does Xur have for sale? What does he offer?
This week there is NO weapon, but a chest engram. He wants 19 strange coins.
For Titans, there are the Grasp of the Oblivion (31/44 INT, 31/44 STR). All gloves today cost 13 strange coins.
For Hunters, the gloves “Don’t Touch Me” (57/70 STR).
For Warlocks, the Claws of Ahamkara (31/44 DIS, 31/44 STR).
As a Year 1 engram, as a legacy engram, there are special weapons. Year 1 exotics with Year 1 stats can drop from it. It costs 31 strange coins.
The chest engram in Destiny is currently quite tricky, because
- Hunters can only decode The Mark of Alpha Lupi
- for Titans, only The Mark of Alpha Lupi can also drop
- only Warlocks have more options, including the new chest “The Alchemist’s Garb”
