Guardians seeking powerful exotic gear should head to the Tower this week, where Xur has established his temporary marketplace. The mysterious Agent of the Nine arrives each weekend with a curated selection of high-end equipment, and knowing his exact position can save valuable time during your acquisition runs.
Xur awaits on the catwalk in the Tower Hangar area.
To locate Xur efficiently, begin at the Courtyard transmat zone within the Tower social space. Immediately turn left and descend the staircase leading into the Hangar section. Once inside the Hangar, make another left turn and proceed toward the northern perimeter. You’ll find a metal staircase ascending to an elevated catwalk where Xur stands overlooking the activity below.
Pro Navigation Tip: Many Guardians waste time circling the entire Hangar. Instead, follow the left wall consistently from your entry point – this direct route minimizes navigation errors and gets you to the vendor in under 60 seconds from spawn.
Xur’s exotic armor offerings this week provide class-specific advantages that can significantly enhance your Guardian Games performance. Each piece serves distinct strategic purposes in both PvE and PvP activities.
The Sixth Coyote provides Hunters with double dodge capabilities.
Ashen Wake transforms Titan fusion grenades into devastating instant-detonation explosives.
Apotheosis Veil offers Warlocks ability regeneration benefits.
The Sixth Coyote excels in aggressive playstyles, allowing Hunters to maintain nearly constant uptime on their class ability. This is particularly effective with Gambler’s Dodge for melee regeneration or Marksman’s Dodge for weapon reloads in critical combat situations.
Ashen Wake fundamentally changes how Titans use fusion grenades. The instant detonation mechanic eliminates the traditional delay, making these explosives exceptionally lethal in both PvE add-clear scenarios and PvP engagements where timing is crucial.
Apotheosis Veil provides Warlocks with enhanced ability recovery when activating their Super. This synergizes powerfully with Well of Radiance for support builds or Nova Bomb for aggressive ability-spam strategies.
Build Optimization: Pair The Sixth Coyote with high Mobility stats for reduced dodge cooldown. Ashen Wake benefits from maximum Discipline investment, while Apotheosis Veil works best with balanced Recovery and Intellect distributions.
Xur’s weapon selection this week centers around the returning exotic trace rifle Prometheus Lens, complemented by a diverse array of legendary weapons covering multiple combat ranges and engagement types.
Prometheus Lens unleashes a continuous solar beam that ignites targets.
Hawkmoon remains available as Xur’s random-roll exotic weapon option.
Prometheus Lens operates as a solar trace rifle that applies burn damage to targets and creates a damaging area effect on final blows. The weapon’s Prismatic Inferno perk causes defeated enemies to explode, making it exceptionally effective against clustered combatants in activities like Guardian Games playlist.

Stat Analysis: The Warmind’s Avatar sets demonstrate clear stat priorities: Titans receive balanced distributions with Resilience emphasis, Warlocks feature high Recovery and Intelligence spreads, while Hunters get Mobility and Recovery focused allocations.
Optimization Strategy: Focus on acquiring pieces that complement your build’s stat deficiencies. The Warlock leg armor with 19 Recovery is exceptional for achieving tier 10 Recovery builds, while Titan gauntlets provide strong Resilience for PvP survivability.
Masterwork Priority: Given the high stat totals (many pieces exceeding 50), consider masterworking items that fill critical stat gaps in your existing loadouts.
