Destiny 2: Xur Exotic Armor, Weapon, and Recommendations for June 21 (2024)

Highlights

  • Xur has arrived in Destiny 2 with new gear, including Crimson, Hawkmoon, The Queenbreaker, and Merciless
  • Players can find Xur in the Tower's Bazaar, offering legendary armor, weapons, and other items like catalysts.
  • Xur's exotic armor inventory includes Karnstein Armlets, Armamentarium, and Shards of Galanor.

Xur has returned again to Destiny 2, complete with new exotic and legendary gear for players to check out for a limited time. Another week has arrived in Destiny 2, giving way to the next chapter of Episode: Echoes, as players continue to help Failsafe investigate the changes that are happening to Nessus following the defeat of The Witness.

In terms of the near future, Bungie also announced that it has heard player feedback and is making changes to the Dungeon and Raid difficulty in Destiny 2 after The Final Shape launched. With the changes made to fireteam power as well as rotating surges, players have noticed that many of these high-end activities feel even more challenging than they were previously, with popular soloable dungeons quickly becoming tedious and feeling worse than before. In next week's update, the elemental surge modifier is being removed completely, with outgoing damage getting a slight buff to help these activities feel as they did prior to the expansion.

The weekend has also arrived, which means it's time to take a look at the brand-new inventory for the weekend merchant Xur, with a selection of exotics and legendary gear for Destiny 2 players. 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 21, 2024.

Where is Xur?

For those who may have missed it, Xur has taken up residence in the Bazaar of The Tower, so there's no more hunting when the weekend comes around.

Since the Bazaar area is between both fast travel points, players can pick either one to load into. Head into the area where Ikora and Hawthorne are and look for the little Ramen Shop towards the back wall. While facing the shop, the alley is to the right, where Xur is standing.

Destiny 2 Class Armor and Exotic Cipher

Xur's role continues to offer the usual weekly quests, exotics, and legendary gear. Not only are these quests required to purchase a second fated engram, but they're necessary to acquire legacy exotic gear from the Tower kiosk. Players can earn a new cipher by completing strikes and winning crucible or gambit matches. Gain bonus points for playing with clan mates or finishing more challenging activities.

Xur's Exotic Armor

Destiny 2: Xur Exotic Armor, Weapon, and Recommendations for June 21 (3)

Karnstein Armlets - Warlock helmet

Exotic Perks:

  • Vampire's Caress - Melee and finisher final blows instantly grant cure and provide restoration for a short duration.

A solid exotic for those who want an easy way to heal, though these in particular are very hard to recommend due to the stat distribution this week. For that reason, these are a pass.

Stat Values (69 Total):

  • Mobility +25
  • Resilience +3
  • Recovery +7
  • Discipline +6
  • Intellect +26
  • Strength +2
Destiny 2: Xur Exotic Armor, Weapon, and Recommendations for June 21 (4)

Shards of Galanor - Hunter gauntlets

Exotic Perk:

  • Sharp Edges - Throwing Knife final blows decrease the cooldown of your Super. Hits and final blows with Blade Barrage will return Super energy after the Super ends.

Synergizes extremely well with the Solar Blade Barrage and is a valuable asset for users who prefer that over Golden Gun.

Stat Values (66 Total):

  • Mobility +17
  • Resilience +17
  • Recovery +2
  • Discipline +2
  • Intellect +15
  • Strength +13
Destiny 2: Xur Exotic Armor, Weapon, and Recommendations for June 21 (5)

Armamentarium - Titan chest armor

Exotic Perk:

  • And Another Thing - Gain an additional grenade charge. Grenade final blows spawn an Orb of Power.

For players looking for recovery, Armamentarium has it in spades this week. Again, this isn't a super unique exotic, but it is certainly useful both with 2 grenade charges and another way to spawn orbs of power.

Stat Values (67 total):

  • Mobility +2
  • Resilience +8
  • Recovery +26
  • Discipline +22
  • Intellect +2
  • Strength +7

Xur Inventory Items

Year 7 in Destiny 2 has upgraded Xur's inventory, adding a true rank progression system, rewards, as well as focusing options. Xur also has more than just weapons and armor as well. This week, Xur has the following items for sale:

  • Acrius Catalyst
  • MIDA Multi-Tool Catalyst

Hawkmoon

  • Paracausal Shot - Final blows and precision hits with Hawkmoon grant stacks of Paracausal Charge. The final round in the magazine deals bonus damage based on the number of stacks. Stowing Hawkmoon on the final round removes this bonus.
  • Smallbore
  • Alloy Magazine
  • Quickdraw
  • Smooth Grip
Destiny 2: Xur Exotic Armor, Weapon, and Recommendations for June 21 (7)

Crimson

  • Banned Weapon - This weapon fires a 3-round burst.
  • Cruel Remedy - Kills with this weapon heal the wielder. Precision kills also refill the magazine.
  • Smallbore
  • Accurized Rounds
  • Heavy Grip
Destiny 2: Xur Exotic Armor, Weapon, and Recommendations for June 21 (8)

Merciless

  • Conserve Momentum - Hits with projectiles decrease this weapon's charge time for a short duration.
  • Impetus - Reloading immediately after a kill increases weapon damage for a short time.
  • Chambered Compensator
  • Extended Mag
  • Fitted Stock
Destiny 2: Xur Exotic Armor, Weapon, and Recommendations for June 21 (9)

The Queenbreaker

  • Wire Rifle - Fires a long-range precision Arc bolt that chains to nearby targets and blinds them on hit.
  • Hip-Fire Grip/Quickdraw
  • Enhanced Battery
  • Marksman Sights/Combat Sights
  • Fitted Stock
Destiny 2: Xur Exotic Armor, Weapon, and Recommendations for June 21 (10)
