This week XUR is located in the Tower Hangar. He is on the
right side at the bottom of the stairs. When you spawn at the Tower, head right
towards the Tower Hangar. Once you are at the first set of stairs, turn right
at the bottom and you should see our wonderful/creepy exotics salesman right
away.
This week XUR’s inventory contains:
Empyrean Bellicose (13 SC) – Exotic Titan Helmet where the
main perk is “Aiming weapons while airborne holds you in place. With full
Super, Orbs recharge melee.” This is a decent exotic helmet for PvE if you like
jumping in the air and shooting things but not so great for PvP as this could
make you and easy target for snipers or even regular shots. A fun exotic to use in
PvE and definitely worth the try, but if you are low on strange coins you could
pass on this one.
Crest of Alpha Lupi (13 SC) – Exotic Chest for Hunters where
the main perk is “Keeper of the Pack – Revive fallen teammates and be revived
faster. Supers generate an extra Orb.” Not the greatest PvE exotic for hunters
but can still be really useful, there are just better possible exotics depending on
the subclass you are playing, but definitely a SOLID PvP exotic especially for
matches that have revive in it such as Salvage or Skirmish.
Alchemist’s Raiment (13 SC) – Exotic Chest for Warlocks
where the main perk is “Iron To Gold – Chance to gain Glimmer on Primary Ammo
pickup. Orbs collected when your Super is full, recharge your grenades and
melee.” This is a pretty decent Exotic overall especially for PvE and can
obviously be used when you are low on glimmer. This chest piece can be paired extremely
well with Warlock Sunsingers who use revive and the Tlaloc as their main
primary weapon as you would have 2 of your grenades often especially if you are
saving your Super for a revive.
Xur is also selling:
Invective (17 SC) – This is an Exotic Shotgun with Solar
burn. What makes this shotgun special is the perk “Invective - This weapon regenerates
ammo over time” Couple that with full auto and final round and you have pretty
awesome Shotgun for both PvE and especially PvP as you could use this shotgun
without picking up Special Ammo. This gun is also really good for missions or Nightfalls
with Solar burn such as the Black Spindle mission.
Legacy Engram – Primary Weapon Engram (31 SC) – This week
Xur is selling Primary Weapons Engram and could be really useful if you do not
have many Year 2 Primary exotics unlocked OR if you are looking for a specific Year 1 weapon like the Thorn. They are extremely expensive at 31 Strange Coins
so I would only suggest buying these if you have tons of strange coins to spare
or are simply looking to complete your collection of Exotics. For getting Year 2
exotics you are probably better off spending the same amount of Strange Coins on
Three of Coins as that is likely to net you more exotics for your Strange
Coins.
This week all the exotics are decent but I think the Hunters
Edge the win ever so slightly as that exotic is quite useful for PvP especially
in Trials where every second counts.
Below is a video showing you exactly where to go when you
first spawn in the Tower if my instructions at the top were a bit unclear. The
video also shows the various items XUR is selling this week so you can have a
look at those as well.
Overall a decent week for XUR but I am hoping he sells the
Red Death next as it is an exotic I am still missing from my collection.
Let me know if XUR bought you something you really wanted
this week or if you are waiting from him to bring a specific exotic in the
comments section below.
