In the shared-world shooter Destiny , the visits from Xur, the Agent of the Nine, are among the highlights of every week. What does he have this Friday, April 3rd?
The enigmatic merchant sells a selection of the best exotic armor and weapons obtainable in the game each week: Primary weapons cost 23, other weapons 17, and armor pieces 13 strange coins.
Today is the first time that Xur comes after the switch to daylight savings time, so confusion is expected. Players will already be looking for him at 10:00 AM, driving everyone crazy and running through the Tower like Thralls. However, Xur will not arrive until 11:00 AM.
In recent weeks, the mystery surrounding his inventory has grown larger again. While in previous months his entire inventory was correctly predicted a few times, this is now only sporadic and incomplete, and it is likely to be less common in the future, although the prediction was accurate last time. Let’s see how it goes today.
