In the wide online world of the space inspired video game "Destiny 2," the in-game merchant named Xur is probably the most anticipated and sought after non-playable character in the game. Xur is the purveyor of rare and exotic weapons and equipment who makes limited appearances from time to time, and he is now back to provide weary players with more weapons for their exploration needs.
In a report by Polygon, players will not have to struggle as much as before this time around since Xur is slated to make more appearances around the universe of "Destiny 2." Xur will be a little bit easier to access, given that he will be available at the Watcher's Grave fast travel point, which is located on Nessus. Additionally, the developers have provided players with specialized Xur icons, so that he is much easier to locate this week.
Hopefully, this becomes the new standard moving forward in the next times that Xur makes his appearances.
Players will not have to make the journey to Xur himself in order to know what he will have in stock for this week. According to Video Gamer, Xur will be selling one weapon, a helmet, a chest armor, and boots – all of which are exotic, of course, and will be costing players a hefty amount of Legendary Shards. The exotic weapon up for grabs is the Fighting Lion Grenade Launcher, priced at 29 Legendary Shards.
However, the Fighting Lion is not the best exotic weapon there is, and its uses can be limited for those who are looking to add to their collection of all-purpose weapons. The Knucklehead Radar Hunter Helmet has its price down to only 23 Legendary Shards. As the name suggests, it gives players a radar advantage when aiming with their sights.
It is notable to mention that players must be at the highest level possible in order to get the most out of the items that they will be purchasing from Xur, according to Euro Gamer. This is due to the fact that the weapons purchased from Xur scales with the players' level. The stats of the exotic items will depend on the player's level, so if players are looking to maximize their purchase, they might have to do some grinding before buying the items they want.
Xur will be available to players from Oct. 14 to Oct. 17.
