Destiny 2 Xur Location Guide: Where Is Xur And What Is He Selling? (December 22-25)
For the second-to-last time this year, Xur has arrived in Destiny 2. The merchant is back for a limited time to sell a selection of Exotic gear, as well as some other new options that were recently introduced. Despite overlapping with Christmas, there's nothing too special about this appearance, but you may want to pay him a visit nonetheless. Here's where to find Xur this week and a rundown on what he's selling on PC, PS4, and Xbox One.
Xur has returned again to Titan, where he's in his usual spot. To find him, you'll want to fast travel to The Rig and then head directly east. Drop down a level and you'll find him hiding out in a room all on his own, where you should be able to avoid attacks from the nearby enemies.
For the second week in a row, all of the gear Xur is selling is available to non-DLC owners; previously, he sold a piece of gear that only Curse of Osiris owners could equip. This week, he has the typical lineup of items for sale, including one Exotic weapon (the SMG Riskrunner) and one piece of Exotic armor for each class. Additionally, he has the new Three of Coins for sale, which will boost your chances of securing an Exotic item while playing. He also has the new Fated Engram, which--while expensive--guarantees that you'll acquire an Exotic piece of gear that you don't already own. Here's his full lineup:
- Riskrunner (Submachine Gun)-- 29 Legendary Shards
- Lucky Pants (Hunter Leg Armor) -- 23 Legendary Shards
- Doom Fang Pauldron (Titan Gauntlets) -- 23 Legendary Shards
- Wings of Sacred Dawn (Warlock Chest Armor) -- 23 Legendary Shards
- Three of Coins -- 31 Legendary Shards
- Fated Engram -- 97 Legendary Shards
The Three of Coins has proven to be somewhat controversial, with players frustrated about the boost it provides and lack of clear communication about what it's supposed to do. Bungie has since talked about Three of Coins and the effect it has; it's also acknowledged a problem when using them in Heroic Strikes.
Meanwhile, Destiny 2's The Dawning event is ongoing, providing a variety of new items to acquire. It's also marked the Destiny 2 debut of Mayhem in Crucible, but it's unfortunately been marred by an exploit for Warlocks. Bungie has revealed this won't be fixed before the end of the event, nor will it ban those who use the glitch.
