Spawn into the tower and turn right after Banshee-44. Continue down the stairs, follow the hallway, and once you reach the bazaar, turn right into the next alley. You'll find Xur here in his dedicated alcove, ready to sell you his latest wares if you have enough Strange Coins in your pocket. Check out our guide on how to get Strange Coins for more details on obtaining this currency, which involves doing ritual activities.

Exotic Armor

Heart of Intimate Light (Titan Exotic Chest Armor)

Heart of Intimate Light
Heart of Intimate Light

Xur has offered the Heart of Intimate Light a few times over the past few months, and in case you missed those opportunities, this exotic works quite well with the Prismatic Titan subclass. Essentially, this chest armor buffs your abilities when you use them, so when you can quickly recharge them via the Prismatic Super, it can make you even more deadly. Feel free to ignore this exotic roll, as most of the core stats are incredibly low.

  • Mobility: 22
  • Resilience: 7
  • Recovery: 6
  • Discipline: 6
  • Intellect: 10
  • Strength: 17
  • Total: 68

Exotic Hunter Gauntlets (Mechanic's Sleeve)

Mechanic's operating sleeves

The Mechanic's Sleeves of Cunning rarely appear in Xur's inventory, so this is a rare opportunity to get some Hunter Gauntlets that offer a wide range of bonuses for sidearms. The stats are also pretty good on this Exotic, as you get a balanced mix of Resilience, Recovery, Strength, and Discipline, so it's worth picking up this week.

  • Mobility: 4
  • Resilience: 15
  • Recovery: 16
  • Discipline: 12
  • Intellect: 6
  • Strength: 15
  • Total: 68

Sunbracers (Exotic Wizard Gauntlets)

The SunbracersThe Sunbracers
The Sunbracers

Sunbracers are another Exotic we've seen a lot in Xur's not-so-secret stash, and they allow you to quickly throw Solar Grenades when you get a Solar melee kill. They were weakened a bit a while back, but ideally you'll still be able to throw four grenades if you're fast enough, turning a battlefield into an active volcano. The stats on this Exotic are a bit odd, as while they have high Discipline and Resilience, the mobility is too high and the recovery is extremely low. It's not the worst we've seen, and if you're building a grenade-centric Warlock build, these Sunbracers could still perform decently.

  • Mobility: 17
  • Resilience: 16
  • Recovery: 3
  • Discipline: 16
  • Intellect: 6
  • Strength: 10
  • Total: 68

Exotic Weapon Catalysts

MIDA Multi-Tool (Exotic Recon Rifle)

Improved stats: Increases stability and reload speed.

Lumina (Exotic Hand Cannon)

Gain two leftovers per final hit instead of one.

Xur has changed the way he does business in The Final Shape. For his rotating selection of Exotic Weapon Catalysts, he will sell two per week. His selection will contain older Catalysts that are found in random drops prior to The Witch Queen expansion, and he will not have any Catalysts associated with Quests, Exotic Missions, Season Pass Exotics, Campaign Exotics, Pre-Order Exotics, Raid Exotics, or Dungeon Exotics.

Xur will also have three random Exotic weapons for sale, in addition to Hawkmoon. Xur will still sell Legendary armor and weapons, as well as Engrams that can randomly drop any item from those pools. Like other vendors, Xur now has his own reputation track, and the more you spend, the more reputation rewards you'll earn, including an Exotic number after every rank reset.

Additionally, Xur’s Loyalty Program activates after spending 47 Strange Coins, granting you a Strange Favor bonus. This bonus lasts for 11 days and can be stacked up to three times, once per week, giving you a chance to earn a bonus Strange Coin through activities that reward you with the currency. Xur is present every weekend in Destiny 2, starting with the Daily Reset at 10:00 AM PT / 1:00 PM ET every Friday.
