The pile of squid ink spaghetti, Xûr, is now live in Destiny 2 for the weekend until next week’s reset. If you’re looking to get you some shiny new Exotic armor or weapons for your Guardian, look no further.
Each week, Xûr has a random assortment of Exotic armor, one for each Guardian class, as well as a random Exotic Weapon and an Exotic Engram available for purchase. In addition to his Exotic wares, he’s got a random collection of Legendary weapons and armor to deck out your Guardians.
We’ve rounded up all the info on Xûr for the week including where to find Xûr, which Exotic weapons and armor are available, as well as which Legendary weapons you should pick up, either for PvE or PvP.
Where Is Xûr Today?
Xûr’s location can be found at The Tower on August 25 through August 29. To reach him, travel to the landing point at The Courtyard and make your way to the Hangar. Hang a left when entering the hangar and you’ll come face-to-face with space Amazon.com.

There are some pretty mid exotic armor pieces this week. None of the rolls have stats in the right places, but if I had to pick one I guess you could do a lot worse than the Hunter helmet.
Exotic Weapons
Hawkmoon – Exotic Hand Cannon
- Paracausal Shot
- Smallbore
- Alloy Magazine
- Killing Wind
- Smooth Grip
Dead Man’s Tale – Exotic Scout Rifle
- No roll this week
Hawkmoon’s roll this week is just alright. Grab it if you need it, but I gotta assume a better one is right around the corner.

Like Warlocks, Hunters have plenty of good options to choose from! Any of these could do well in your collection. If you’re a Hunter who cares about Mobility, then the boots are the best option. Otherwise, I’d suggest the helmet.
