Xur has returned again toDestiny 2, complete with new exotic and legendary gear for players to check out for a limited time. A new week means new details have once again arrived for the anticipated Edge of Fate expansion. This week, Bungie outlined how vendors like Ada-1 and Banshee-44 are evolving, while also confirmingbig changes coming toDestiny 2activities like Gambitand Iron Banner.
Along those same lines, players may feel the loot-chasing bug once again as theEdge of Fate overhauls theDestiny 2armor system. Starting with that expansion, armor will drop in a new tier system, with higher values offering better stats, perks, and bonuses. In addition, specific gear will offer set bonuses for players who wear multiple peices from the same outfit.
With the weekend now here, the exotic merchant Xur has returned with a new inventory of gear forDestiny 2players. Follow this guide for his current weekend location, news on his exotic cipher quest, as well as a review of all the exotic and legendary gear he’s brought for the weekend of June 26, 2025.
Where is Xur?
Xur has taken up permanent residence in the Bazaar area inside The Tower, so there’s no more hunting needed when the weekend comes around.
Since the Bazaar is located between both fast travel points, players can pick either one to load into. Head into the area where Ikora and Hawthorne are hanging out and look for the Ramen Shop towards the back wall. While facing the shop, the alley hiding Xur is to the right.
Destiny 2 Exotic Class Armor
Xur’s role has continued to expand and evolve over the years. Alongside The Final Shape expansion,Xur’s inventory inDestiny 2expanded even more, moving back to Strange Coins as the currency of choice and features rank rewards, resources, and, of course, armor and weapons.
Apotheosis Veil - Warlock helmet
Exotic Perks:
Technically, the lowest roll of the trio this week, though it’s still a tough one to recommend. There isn’t a big reason to pick this one over other exotics.
Aeon Swift - Hunter gauntlets
Exotic Perk:
Not much has changed since this was last offered with Xur. It’s still a much better exotic than its original version, but it’s still not going to compete with the current top meta picks. The roll is pretty high, so it may be worth grabbing to replace a lesser role.
Synthoceps - Titan gauntlets
Of the three this weekend, this is the easiest one to recommend, which empowers the player with better melee, reload speed, weapon handling, and Super damage when surrounded. Whether that’s PvP or PvE, that’s a very common occurrence, so the perk is easy to trigger.
Stat Values (67 total):
