In the MMO shooter Destiny , Xur, Agent of the Nine, will be at the Tower or the Reef on Friday, August 28th. What exotic weapons and armor will he have this time?
At this point, as in recent weeks, the saying goes: There is really a lot going on in Destiny. At the end of the month, some new print gaming magazines hit the US market, and their editors have spoken with Bungie, bringing new revelations and fresh details to report. Bungie distributes its gifts; they tell one person this, another that, and they talk about something else in streams.
It now looks like “little by little” the remaining Year 1 exotics could be reused as Year 2 versions. However, this hasn’t been discussed in the stream yet because an exclusive story was already underway for a magazine, and they probably wanted to leave that “info” to them.
What happens to Xur in Year 2? Will strange coins remain relevant?
Anyway: There are many topics related to Destiny on the agenda, which we will focus on more intensively in the coming days.
But now it’s Xur’s turn. He has had a great run, bringing Gjallarhorn and Thunderlord on two consecutive Fridays, the two exotic weapons that he sells the least. One might wonder what he will have this time. Hopefully, he won’t skimp, the scoundrel.
Oh, and by the way: As a Bungie employee announced a few hours ago, Xur will still like strange coins in “The Taken King.” They will drop from a variety of activities.

Where is Xur located?
Xur is in the Hangar.
What is with the numbers on armor pieces?
This is the value in intellect, strength, or discipline of that particular armor piece. You can read more about this in this article.
What does Xur have this week?
Xur is selling the fusion rifle Plan C this week. Xur asks for 17 strange coins for it. What the weapon is worth, you can read in our special about fusion rifles.
For Titans, there are the Wanderfalken leg armor (average 140) . Like all armor pieces, they cost 13 strange coins.
For Hunters, the chest armor Emblem of Alpha Lupi (rather weak 140/147).
And for Warlocks, Xur has the helmet Apotheosis Veil (not so great 103/109).
As an engram, there are Gauntlets. The three Wrath of the Hive gauntlets are “Handcuffs of Nothing”, “Khepri’s Sting”, and “ACD/0 Feedback Fence.”
