Xur Location and Inventory for February 17th and 18th

xur

Who is Xur?

Xur Agent Of The Nine, works for the mysterious group, The Nine. While Guardians have never seen The Nine, it is said that their influence is vast. Xur, the moss-tentacle-faced vendor visits social spaces once a week, bringing with him a variety of exotic items, which Guardians can purchase with Strange Coins.

Xur’s Location

If you want to find Xur for some exotic goodness this week then head to the Reef, the only social space that isn’t on Earth. From Spawn you need to head right and down the stairs all the way, then turn right again. In front of you should be a small entrance on the left, go in there and you’ll find Xur skulking around at the back, no doubt surrounded by loads of other Guardians eager to get their hands on his wares.

Xur’s Inventory

Exotic Weapon: Hard Light (Exotic Auto Rifle) 23 Strange Coins

Hard Light’s exotic perk, Volatile Light, make its bullets super powerful, never losing damage over distance, over penetrating targets, and bouncing off of surfaces. This perk alone makes this weapon fantastic for shooting around corners and generally annoying Guardians in the Crucible. The other perks build on this one to make it far better to spray as many bullets as you can, with reduced recoil and increased damage from the second half of every magazine.

Exotic Helmet: Eternal Warrior (Titan class) 13 Strange Coins

This helmet is pretty great, giving you the Unstoppable ability for your First of Havoc, as well as one of four random perks that boost you in different ways. This week the roll is Intelligence: 42, quite bad considering the max is 104, and Strength: 43, which is about midway between the min and max for this helmet. Honestly I would avoid buying the helmet this week if you’re trying to create a specific build, but for collectors this is a must have.

Exotic Chest Armour: Lucky Rasberry (Hunter Class) 13 Strange Coins

The exotic perk for Luck Raspberry lets you spawn with full grenade energy, and makes your Arc Grenade Chains reach further. This week the roll is 103 Discipline, which is okay considering the max is 138, so it might be worth buying if you’re building a Discipline character. I will say that Bladedancer is a very powerful Subclass, and if you’re using it without this then you’re doing it wrong.

Exotic Chest Armour: Purifier Robes (Warlock Class) 13 Strange Coins

Purifier Robes are pretty great for a Solar Warlock build. The perk Burn Brighter means you disorient any enemies nearby when you use Radiance, and Solar Armour gives you additional armour when using a Solar-based subclass. The roll this week is Intelligence: 55, just above the minimum of 51 and nowhere near the max of 138, and Discipline: 57, again much closer to the minimum of 51 and nowhere near the maximum of 86. This week it’s a bad roll I’,m afraid, but if the perks sound good for the Guardian you’re playing the most then I would go for it. 

Legacy Engram: (Exotic Body Armour) 29 Strange Coins – The Legacy Engram will decode for a Year 1 or 2 piece of armour to complete your collection. Some of these items can be infused to Year 3 Light Level.

Three Of Coins (Consumable) 7 Strange Coins

Plasma Drive (Consumable) 23 Strange Coins

Emerald Coil (Consumable) 23 Strange Coins

Heavy Ammo Sythesis Consumable) 3 Strange Coins

Glass Needles (Consumable) 3 Strange Coins, 3 Motes Of Light, and 1 Exotic Shard

Our Take

This week we’re not getting the best stuff from Xur, it has to be said. Hard Light is a really great weapon, and if you’ve never had it I would thoroughly recommend picking it up just to see those bullets bounce around everywhere. The armour he’s offering is pretty bad in terms of rolls, but Purifier Robes are definitely going to be useful if you’re running with a Solar subclass on your Warlock. Sadly this isn’t the best week for Xur, but there’s always next week if you don’t get what you want this week.

I'm an avid Destiny 2 fan and player. I fell in love with Destiny 1 during the early alpha and have been hooked by the universe ever since. I really enjoy playing with other Guardians, speculating about the lore, and writing about as much of the Destiny universe as I can.
