Important takeaways

• This weekend has Xur Cerberus+1, Trinity Ghoul, a new Hawkmoon coil and The Wardcliff Coil.
• For exotic armor, Xur has Promethium Spur, Gwisin Vest, Dunemarchers and class items.

Xur has returned to Destiny 2complete with new exotic and legendary gear for players to check out for a limited time. As expected, Bungie finally pulled back the curtain Destiny 2s Festival of the Lost event. Bringing back the traditional gameplay of Haunted Sectors and collecting pages for the Book of the Forgotten, players have some new gear to acquire this time around. In addition to new perks on existing festival weapons, a new Heavy Burst arc shotgun named Arcane Embrace can be obtained.

The bigger news for many plans came with the announcement that, for the first time, the exotic class items in Destiny 2 would now be purchasable for anyone, regardless of whether Dual Destiny was completed or not. For 1 Eerie Engram and 2500 candies, players could purchase a randomly rolled exotic from Eva. Even better, doing so would make these items available to farm in the Overthrow chest from Pale Heart as well as to purchase from Xur when in his inventory.

Speaking of Xur, the weekend merchant has returned with a new stock of exotics and legendary gear too Destiny 2 player. Follow this guide for his current weekend location, news on his exotic cypher mission, as well as a review of all the exotic and legendary gear he's brought with him for the weekend of October 25, 2024.

Where is Xur?

Xur has now taken up permanent residence in the Bazaar area inside The Tower, so there will be no more hunting come the weekend.

Since the bazaar is located between both fast travel points, players can choose either one to load into. Enter the area where Ikora and Hawthorne are and look for the Ramen Shop against the back wall. While facing the shop, the alley is on the right, where Xur stands.

Destiny 2 Class Armor and Exotic Cipher

Xur's role continues to offer the usual weekly quests, exotic items, and legendary gear. These quests are not only required to purchase a second Destiny engram, but they are also necessary to obtain legacy exotic equipment from the Tower kiosk. Players can earn a new cipher by completing strikes and winning crucible or gambit matches. Get bonus points for playing with clanmates or completing more challenging activities.

Xur's Exotic Armor

Promethium Spur – Warlock Legguards

Exotic benefit:

• Embers of Light – The final strike of the day creates a healing and strengthening Rift at the target's location. While a Solar Super is equipped, the Solar weapon's final hit grants Rift energy; standing in a Rift increases this energy. Final hits while in a Rift consume class energy to create a healing and strengthening Rift at the target's location.

A very unfortunate role this week for Warlocks with a peak in mobility and a low total. Anyway, this is a safe skip this week.

Statistical values ​​(62 in total):

• Mobility +18
• Resilience +2
• Recovery +12
• Discipline +7
• Intellect +14
• Strength +9

Gwisin Vest – Hunter Chest Armor

Exotic benefit:

• Roving Assassin – Each Spectral Blades kill you make before stealth will restore more of your super energy.

While this was previously easy to skip, Episode Revenant gave a much-needed buff to many roaming supers, including Spectral Blades. As players continue to test the best builds this episode, the Gwisin Vest is a great pickup only for Spectral Blades users.

Statistical values ​​(64 in total):

• Mobility +12
• Resilience +11
• Recovery +10
• Discipline +9
• Intellect +12
• Strength +10

Dunemarchers – Titanium leg armor

Exotic benefit:

• Linear Actuators – Increases sprint speed. Sprint builds up a static charge. After attacking a melee enemy, that charge will chain damage to nearby enemies.

Similar to the Warlock exotic this week, Dunemarchers have a very unfortunate role with excessive intelligence and mobility. It's another very difficult item to recommend this week.

Statistical values ​​(65 in total):

• Mobility +19
• Resilience +3
• Recovery +10
• Discipline +6
• Intellect +25
• Strength +2
