Destiny 2: Where Is Xur Today? Location and Exotic Items for August 12-16

By | August 12, 2022

The creature spawned from a pile of rotting caviar, Xur, is now live in Destiny 2 for the weekend until next week's reset. If you're looking to get your 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 can be found at The Tower on August 12 through August 16. To reach him, travel to the landing point at The Courtyard and make your way to the Hangar. You'll find ol' snake-face chilling near the stairs at the back of the Hangar area.

What's Xûr Selling Today?

Exotic Engram

Monte Carlo – Exotic Auto Rifle

Mechaneer's Tricksleeves – Exotic Hunter Gauntlets

  • 18 Mobility
  • 2 Resilience
  • 9 Recovery
  • 12 Discipline
  • 16 Intellect
  • 2 Strength
  • Total: 59

Antaeus Wards – Exotic Titan Leg Armor

  • 13 Mobility
  • 2 Resilience
  • 13 Recovery
  • 18 Discipline
  • 9 Intellect
  • 2 Strength
  • Total: 57

Crown of Tempests – Exotic Warlock Helmet

  • 24 Mobility
  • 2 Resilience
  • 3 Recovery
  • 2 Discipline
  • 16 Intellect
  • 16 Strength
  • Total: 63

Exotic rolls this week are pretty underwhelming, especially for Hunters and Titans. Warlocks have a so-so Crown of Tempests, but with so many stats going into Mobility, you're likely to find better rolls for this armor elsewhere. Bad Xur!

Exotic Weapons

Hawkmoon – Exotic Hand Cannon

  • Paracausal Shot
  • Fluted Barrel
  • Alloy Magazine
  • Snapshot Sights
  • Textured Grip

Dead Man's Tale – Exotic Scout Rifle

  • Cranial Spike
  • Full Bore
  • Flared Magwell
  • Fourth Time's The Charm
  • Short-Action Stock

The Hawkmoon roll this week isn't half bad, but certainly not the best roll we've seen in recent weeks. Dead Man's Tale's roll, on the other hand, is not only underwhelming, but just got a nerf announcement from Bungie, so you should definitely skip it!

Legendary Weapons

Toil and Trouble – Shotgun

  • Smoothbore/Corkscrew Rifling
  • Assault Mag/Accurized Rounds
  • Threat Detector
  • Outlaw
  • Reload Speed Masterwork

Lonesome – Sidearm

  • Arrowhead Brake/Fluted Barrel
  • Armor-Piercing Rounds/High-Caliber Rounds
  • Outlaw
  • Opening Shot
  • Range Masterwork

Seventh Seraph Carbine – Auto Rifle

  • Arrowhead Brake/Hammer-Forged Rifling
  • Armor-Piercing Rounds/High-Caliber Rounds
  • Hip-Fire Grip
  • Rangefinder
  • Stability Masterwork

Interference VI – Grenade Launcher

  • Volatile Launch/Countermass
  • Thermoplastic Grenades/Augmented Drum
  • Clown Cartridge
  • Swashbuckler
  • Velocity Masterwork

Truthteller – Grenade Launcher

  • Hard Launch/Linear Compensator
  • Blinding Grenades/Spike Grenades
  • Grave Robber
  • Disruption Break
  • Handling Masterwork

Star's in Shadow – Pulse Rifle

  • Polygonal Rifling/Smallbore
  • Extended Mag/Alloy Magazine
  • Quickdraw
  • Elemental Capcacitor
  • One Quiet Moment
  • Stability Masterwork

Gridskipper – Pulse Rifle

  • Arrowhead Brake/Polygonal Rifling
  • Ricochet Rounds/Flared Magwell
  • Heating Up
  • Snapshot Sights
  • Range Masterwork

The highlights this week are the Truthteller roll, which comes so close to being a God roll, the Lonesome sidearm and Seventh Seraph auto rifle rolls which are great rolls that could work well with next season's meta. The heavy grenade launcher Interference VI could also prove useful next season as grenade launchers are receiving a buff.

Hunters are the only class with any interesting rolls this week, but even theirs aren't anything to write home about. The chest piece and the legs are both 63 overall stat rolls with some interesting spikiness, but aside from that there isn't much to see here.
