Destiny 2 is chasing a new shotgun mission
Bungie is teasing an upcoming strange mission for Act 3 of Episode Revenant that brings a new gun with a shoot and reload mode.
However, for now, the Xur Weekender is back with a new inventory of exotics and legends for the Destiny 2 player. Follow this guide for his weekend whereabouts, news on his exotic cipher quest, as well as a review of the exotic and legendary gear he brought with him on the weekend of November 15, 2024.
Where is Xur?
Xur has now taken up residence in the Bazaar area within The Tower, so there is no more hunting when the weekend arrives.
Since the Bazaar is located between fast travel locations, players can choose which one to enter. Go to the area between Ikora and Hawthorne and find the Ramen shop towards the back wall. In front of the shop, take the corridor to the right, where Xur is standing.
Destiny 2 Class Armor and Exotic Cipher
Xur's role continues to offer weekly custom quests, exotics, and legendary gear. Not only are these quests required to purchase second time engrams, but it is also necessary to obtain legacy weapons from the Tower kiosk. Players can earn new ciphers by completing strikes and winning crucible or gambit games. Earn bonus points by playing with a partner or completing more difficult events.
Xur's Exotic Armor
Transversive steps – Warlock leg armor
Exotic Perk:
- Strange Protractor – Sprint speed increased. After sprinting for a short time, your current weapon will automatically reload.
A very tall roll of fabric that is subject to tension at the end. However, considering that these exotics involve sprinting, perhaps high tolerances are not the worst thing. There are better options out there, but the auto reset after sprinting is very useful in most situations.
Stat Value (69 Total):
- Movement +21
- Durability +6
- Recovery +8
- Control +6
- Intellect +12
- Strength +16
Aeon Swift – Hunter hat
Exotic Perk:
- Aeon's Wrath – A quick hit with a weapon temporarily increases the reload speed and the switching speed.
- Song of the Foebreaker – They mark the defeat of a champion or the swift defeat of a mighty warrior. Your allies deal increased damage to marked fighters. When a warrior is first spotted, nearby Aeon Cult allies who do not have the Sect of Force role receive grenades and energy.
It comes back after a week. Nothing has changed during this time, although the video overall is slightly higher than at the beginning of this month. However, it is not a must-have.
Stat Value (67 Total):
- Movement +3
- Durability +15
- Recovery +15
- Discipline +2
- Intellect +12
- Strength +20
Severance Enclosure – Titan breastplate
Exotic Perk:
- Spheromatik Trigger – A powerful final blow unleashes a devastating explosion. Reversal and final hits on stronger targets increase the radius and damage of the explosion.
Perhaps more fun to mess with, this exotic doesn't take away one of the best options available during Episode: Revenant.
Stat values (67 total):
- Movement +10
- Durability +12
- Recovery +12
- Control +6
- Intellect +17
- Strength +10

Year 7's Xur update also added the ability to offer multiple powerful weapons in one visit. Here's what Xur has this weekend:
Hawkmoon – Hand cannon

Cutting through the fighter's shield with the appropriate damage type for the Ionic Return round refreshes the bonus.
- The Fundamentals – Holding reload changes the damage type of this weapon, cycling between Solar, Arc, and Void. Gives different stats based on the type of damage you choose.
- Corkscrew Rifling
- Extended Mag
- Hand-Laid Stock
Thunderlord – Machine gun
