Where Is Xur Today? (February 3-7) – Destiny 2 Exotic Items And Xur Location Guide

TL;DR

  • Xur located in EDZ’s Winding Cove – follow northern route to crashed Fallen dropship
  • Exotic offerings include Lord of Wolves shotgun and class-specific armor pieces
  • Legendary weapon table features seven weapons with diverse perk combinations
  • Armor stats show varied distributions suitable for different build types

Destiny 2’s mysterious merchant Xur has returned with his weekly exotic offerings, providing Guardians with another opportunity to expand their arsenals. As the Witch Queen era approaches its conclusion, this weekend’s inventory presents several valuable acquisitions for players looking to strengthen their loadouts before the next chapter begins.

The Agent of the Nine has established his temporary outpost in the EDZ, specifically within the Winding Cove sector. Finding him requires precise navigation: begin at the Winding Cove transmat zone, mount your sparrow heading northward, then identify the collapsed overpass on your left. Look carefully for a cave entrance adjacent to the road’s curvature, then proceed through the tunnel system within the cliff formation. This path leads upward to a ridge where a destroyed Fallen dropship rests – Xur awaits nearby this crash site.

Common navigation mistake: Many players overlook the cave entrance, continuing along the main road instead. The tunnel is deliberately inconspicuous, so move slowly and scan the left-side rock formations carefully after passing the overpass debris.

Xur’s exotic inventory this week centers around the powerful Lord of Wolves shotgun, alongside class-specific armor pieces that complement various playstyles. Each exotic serves distinct combat roles and synergizes with specific subclass builds.

Hunter mains can acquire Raiju’s Harness chest armor, which provides unique Arc staff functionality modifications. Titan players have access to Doom Fang Pauldrons arm armor that enhances Void subclass capabilities. Warlocks can obtain Felwinter’s Helm, an exotic helmet that creates area-of-effect debuffs following melee final blows.

  • Exotic Engram – 97 Legendary Shards
  • Lord of Wolves – 29 Legendary Shards
  • Raiju’s Harness – 23 Legendary Shards
  • Doom Fang Pauldrons – 23 Legendary Shards
  • Felwinter’s Helm – 23 Legendary Shards

Performance insight: Lord of Wolves functions uniquely among shotguns, offering both standard firing and a powerful alternate mode that consumes more ammunition but dramatically increases damage output. This makes it exceptionally effective against major enemies and in PvP scenarios where burst damage is critical.

Beyond his exotic offerings, Xur provides seven legendary weapons with carefully curated perk combinations. These weapons span multiple archetypes and damage types, offering solutions for various combat encounters and build requirements.

Strategic recommendations: The Chrysura Melo with Harmony perk becomes exceptionally powerful when switching between weapons, making it ideal for players who frequently alternate between primary and special weapons. Meanwhile, Fractethyst benefits from Full Choke for PvP consistency while Ensemble provides team utility in cooperative activities.

Build optimization insights: The Warlock gloves stand out with 26 Discipline, making them ideal for grenade-focused builds. Titan gauntlets offer excellent Resilience for damage resistance builds, while Hunter helmets provide balanced stats for versatile playstyles. Class items (marks, bonds, cloaks) naturally contain zero stats as expected.

Advanced stat analysis: For min-maxing builds, the Hunter chest piece with 19 Discipline pairs well with grenade-regeneration exotics. The Titan leg armor’s 14 Resilience and 13 Recovery creates a strong foundation for endgame survivability.

When approaching Xur’s inventory with limited Legendary Shards, strategic prioritization becomes essential. The Exotic Engram should typically claim top priority since it provides a random exotic that could complete your collection or offer superior stat rolls. However, specific circumstances may alter this hierarchy.

Shard investment priority: Begin with the Exotic Engram (97 shards) for collection completion, then evaluate your class-specific exotic armor based on current build requirements. Lord of Wolves represents excellent value at 29 shards if you lack this weapon or seek its unique combat capabilities.

Common purchasing mistakes: Many players overlook checking the stat distributions before buying exotic armor, potentially wasting shards on poorly-rolled pieces. Always inspect the specific stat numbers to ensure alignment with your build objectives before purchasing.

For players working through our Weapons Unlock guide, similar strategic principles apply – prioritize versatile weapons that serve multiple combat scenarios rather than niche options.
