As Season of the Witch concludes and Season of the Wish approaches, Xur maintains his weekly tradition of offering premium gear across the solar system. This comprehensive guide ensures you efficiently locate the elusive merchant and understand the strategic value of his current inventory.
The Agent of the Nine has established his temporary outpost in the European Dead Zone, specifically within the Winding Cove sector. For optimal navigation, spawn at the Winding Cove transmat point and proceed northeast toward the crashed Fallen skiff. Xur typically positions himself near the cliffside overlooking the ocean, making him easily visible from multiple approach angles.
Xur’s established position in the European Dead Zone’s Winding Cove region.
Common navigation mistake: Many Guardians waste time searching the more extensive areas of the EDZ. Focus your search exclusively around the Winding Cove’s central rock formations and fallen spacecraft debris. His inventory refreshes every Tuesday at 10 AM PST alongside the weekly reset, giving you limited time to acquire these specific rolls.
Xur’s exotic armor selection this week provides exceptional build diversity across all three Guardian classes. Each piece offers unique combat advantages that can significantly enhance your gameplay in both PvE and PvP activities.
Titan: Peregrine Greaves
Peregrine Greaves leg armor for Titans.
The Peregrine Greaves transform standard shoulder charges into devastating aerial assaults. When executing a shoulder charge ability while airborne, you deal significantly increased damage that can one-shot most major combatants and severely damage champions.
Advanced build strategy: Combine with Monte Carlo for melee energy regeneration or with a One-Two Punch shotgun for maximum burst damage potential. This exotic excels in Grandmaster Nightfalls where quickly eliminating high-priority targets is crucial.
Hunter: Gemini Jester
Gemini Jester leg armor for Hunters.
Gemini Jester provides exceptional crowd control by disorienting nearby enemies and removing their radar. This creates strategic advantages in both PvP and high-level PvE content where disorientation can create crucial breathing room.
PvP optimization: Pair with top-tree Arcstrider for enhanced disorient capabilities or use in combination with smoke bombs for area denial strategies.
Warlock: Phoenix Protocol
Phoenix Protocol chest armor for Warlocks.
The Phoenix Protocol remains a top-tier exotic for Well of Radiance builds, providing super energy returns for every enemy defeated while standing in your Well.
Endgame application: In raid encounters or difficult Nightfalls, Phoenix Protocol can enable nearly continuous Well uptime when paired with appropriate mods and team coordination.
Tractor Cannon: The Ultimate Debuff Tool
Tractor Cannon heavy shotgun available from Xur.
Xur’s featured exotic weapon this week is the Tractor Cannon, a heavy shotgun that applies a powerful 30% damage debuff to affected targets. This makes it exceptionally valuable for boss damage phases and dealing with particularly resilient enemies.
Strategic deployment: The Tractor Cannon’s void debuff stacks multiplicatively with other damage buffs, making it essential for optimized raid strategies and high-level nightfall content.
Hawkmoon: Precision Hand Cannon
Hawkmoon exotic hand cannon also available.
The Hawkmoon hand cannon offers random rolls, allowing for customized perk combinations. This week’s roll features particularly strong PvP-oriented perks that enhance its dueling capabilities.
Perk optimization: Focus on rolls that improve handling and stability for consistent crit shots, or prioritize range extensions for map control in Crucible matches.
Beyond his exotic offerings, Xur provides complete sets of legendary Ketchkiller armor for all three classes, along with a curated selection of weapons with fixed perk combinations.
