Destiny 2: Where Is Xur Today? Location and Exotic Items for August 18-22

The animate discount isle, Xûr, is now live in Destiny 2 for the weekend until next week’s reset. If you’re looking to get you 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 today can be found at Watcher’s Grave on Nessus on August 18 through August 22. To reach him, travel to the landing point at Watcher’s Grave. When you arrive, make for the red moss-covered tree straight ahead. Climb up the roots and you’ll find Xûr waiting at the top to sell you exotic items and legendary weapons.

What Is Xûr Selling This Weekend?

Exotic Engram

D.A.R.C.I. – Exotic Sniper Rifle

Young Ahamkara’s Spine – Exotic Hunter Gauntlets

• 6 Mobility
• 11 Resilience
• 16 Recovery
• 13 Discipline
• 7 Intellect
• 10 Strength
• Total: 63

ACD/0 Feedback Fence – Exotic Titan Gauntlets

• 10 Mobility
• 4 Resilience

• Total: 65

Apotheosis Veil – Exotic Warlock Helmet

• 2 Mobility

The best drop this week is the Warlock helmet with super low Mobility and high Recovery, though even that one has fairly low stat totals. Not much to get too excited about this week in the exotic picklist.

Exotic Weapons

Hawkmoon – Exotic Hand Cannon

• Paracausal Shot
• Extended Barrel
• Alloy Magazine
• Moving Target
• Smooth Grip

Dead Man’s Tale – Exotic Scout Rifle

• Cranial Spike
• Arrowhead Brake
• Light Mag
• Fourth Time’s The Charm
• Hand-Laid Stock

These classic Exotic weapons are also pretty uninspired this week. I’d hold off on buying these until we get better options.

Legendary Weapons

Gnawing Hunger – Auto Rifle

• Extended Barrel/Smallbore
• Appended Mag/Tactical Mag
• Auto-Loading Holster
• Multikill Clip
• Stability Masterwork

• Appended Mag/Ricochet Rounds
• Graverobber
• Swashbuckler
• Handling Masterwork

IKELOS_SR_V1.0.3 – Sniper Rifle

• Fluted Barrel/Smallbore
• Seraph Rounds/Steady Rounds
• No Distractions
• Box Breathing
• Rasputin’s Arsenal
• Stability Masterwork

My top picks this week are Tripwire Canary with Perfect Float and Opening Shot (the latter of which is always good on bows), Gridskipper with Killing Wind and Snapshot Sights (not exactly original, but definitely reliable), and the Ikelos sniper rifle with No Distractions and Box Breathing (probably my favorite combo of sniper perks generally speaking).
