In the MMO shooter Destiny , Xur arrives in the game world on Friday, October 2nd, on PS3, PS4, Xbox 360, and Xbox One. What exotic weapons and armor does he have?
The fog surrounding “King of the Taken” is slowly clearing, the new expansion for Destiny: The mechanics and new weapons are becoming clear. There are early favorites like the “Zhalo Supercell” among the weapons – which Xur can also sell by the way.
The old tentacle face still plays a role in the new, altered world of Destiny. Although his offerings have become scarcer, he either brings a weapon or an exotic engram, but through the “Three of Coins” , he remains an important source for exotic items in Destiny.
These 8 exotic armor pieces are in the database but probably not yet in the game
However, not all exotic armor pieces that are in the database are likely to be obtainable in Destiny itself. This leads to some exotic engrams having very few chances to drop different armor pieces, resulting in frequent duplicates.
Of the 18 exotic armor pieces that are in the database, the following are currently missing according to Guardians on Reddit:
- For the Titan, the boots Dune Strider and the gloves Thagomizer (the chest Dämmerbruch-Garnison is supposed to be in the game but very rare)
- For the Warlock, the helm Astrocyte Verse, the gloves Ophidian Aspect and the boots Transversive Steps
- For the Hunter, the chest ATS/8 Tarantella, the gloves Shinobu’s Vow and the boots Fr0st-EE5.
Some suspect that these exotic armor pieces would only be unlocked with PvP events – or would even only be found as special rewards there. They are rather PvP-oriented items.
Keep this in mind when opening engrams!
Everything about Xur in Destiny on October 2nd, 3rd and 4th
When will Xur arrive in Destiny?
Xur has a weekend job in Destiny. He arrives on Friday, October 2nd, at 11:00 AM, works for 48 hours and leaves on Sunday, October 4th, at 11:00 AM.
Where is Xur? Where is he?
Xur is located at the Speaker in the Tower.
What’s with the numbers in parentheses?
These are the values for the respective armor pieces in intellect, strength, and discipline. The values can vary within certain parameters.
What does Xur have to offer this time?
This week, Xur has a helmet engram on offer instead of a weapon. It costs 19 strange coins.
For Titans, he sells the new gloves Fist of Havoc (INT 32/45, STR 27/40). They cost 13 strange coins like all armor pieces.
For Hunters, he has the helm Celestial Nighthawk (INT 35/50, STR 36/51) on offer.
For Warlocks, there is the chest armor Heart of the Praxic Fire (INT 43/63, DIS 45/65).
The legacy engram for 31 strange coins only drops Year 1 weapons with Year 1 stats: This time it’s heavy weapons.
From the exotic helmet engram for 19 strange coins, new Year 2 helmets (according to our information) can drop items such as:
- THE STAG for Warlocks
- Taikonaut and Celestial Nighthawk for Titans
- Graviton Forfeit and Skyburners Annex for Hunters
