Destiny 2: Where Is Xur Today? Location and Exotic Items for January 20-24

The answer to "sell me a gun, but make it creepy," Xûr, is now live in Destiny 2 for the weekend until next week's reset. If you're looking to get your 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 Winding Cove in the EDZ on January 20 through January 24. To reach him, travel to the landing point at Winding Cove. When you arrive, make for the rock cliffs at the far end of the cove and look for a cave winding up to a platform next to some Fallen. There you'll find the retail monster who inspires us all.

What's Xûr Selling Today?

Exotic Engram

Vigilance Wing - Exotic Pulse Rifle

Raiju's Harness - Exotic Hunter Chest Armor

  • 2 Mobility
  • 12 Resilience
  • 16 Recovery
  • 9 Discipline
  • 16 Intellect
  • 6 Strength
  • Total: 61

Armamentarium - Exotic Titan Chest Armor

  • 22 Mobility
  • 4 Resilience
  • 3 Recovery
  • 18 Discipline
  • 9 Intellect
  • 6 Strength
  • Total: 62

Transversive Steps - Exotic Warlock Boots

  • 10 Mobility
  • 13 Resilience
  • 10 Recovery
  • 15 Discipline
  • 2 Intellect
  • 15 Strength
  • Total: 65

The only worthwhile armor this week are the Warlock boots, but even those are probably the least I'd hope for with an Exotic, and even then there aren't any spikey stats on it. Pretty underwhelming week for exotics overall!

Exotic Weapons

Hawkmoon - Exotic Hand Cannon

  • Paracausal Shot
  • Corkscrew Rifling
  • Alloy Magazine
  • Moving Target
  • Smooth Grip

Dead Man's Tale - Exotic Scout Rifle

  • Cranial Spike
  • Full Bore
  • Accurized Rounds
  • Vorpal Weapon
  • Fitted Stock

Hawkmoon's roll this week is pretty nice with a set of perks designed around emptying the clip and reloading as quickly as possible (which works great with Hawkmoon's whole philosophy. Dead Man's Tale also has Vorpal Weapon (my favorite perk on it), though Bungie also announced a pretty significant nerf for this weapon recently, so who know if this toy will be useful in the future regardless.

Legendary Weapons

Withering Slab - Combat Bow

  • Agile Bowstring/Tactile String
  • Compact Arrow Shaft/Natural Fletching
  • Quickdraw
  • Opening Shot
  • Accuracy Masterwork

Truthteller - Grenade Launcher

  • Confined Launch/Hard Launch
  • Proximity Grenades/Implosion Rounds
  • Field Prep
  • Disruption Break
  • Handling Masterwork

Berenger's Memory - Grenade Launcher

  • Linear Compensator/Smart Drift Control
  • Spike Grenades/Alloy Casing
  • Quickdraw
  • Auto-Loading Holster
  • Blast Radius Masterwork

Ignition Code - Grenade Launcher

  • Linear Compensator/Quick Launch
  • High-Velocity Rounds/Implosion Rounds
  • Field Prep
  • Thresh
  • Reload Speed Masterwork

Dire Promise - Hand Cannon

  • Truesight HCS/Sureshot HCS
  • Armor-Piercing Rounds/High-Caliber Rounds
  • Auto-Loading Holster
  • Under Pressure
  • Stability Masterwork

Enigma's Draw - Sidearm

  • Quickdot SAS/Shortspec SAS
  • Flared Magwell/Light Mag
  • Zen Moment
  • Rangefinder
  • Handling Masterwork

Frozen Orbit - Sniper Rifle

  • Chambered Compensator/Fluted Barrel
  • Accurized Rounds/Alloy Magazine
  • Lead From Gold
  • Dragonfly
  • One Quiet Moment
  • Range Masterwork

Xûr's got a few interesting weapons this week! Withering Slab with Opening Shot is always a fun time, Berenger's Memory with Spike Grenades, Quickdraw, and an Auto-Loading Holster could be very good for PvE, and even the Frozen Orbit roll might be great for PvP with Lead From Gold feeding your reserves and Dragonfly allowing for AoE damage. Not a bad selection of toys!

Lightkin Cloak

Following in the footsteps of Titans, Hunters chose to only have one good roll on their chest piece, which is also very spikey! Everything else? Nah.
