by

Summary

  • Xur is back in Destiny 2 with new exotic and legendary gear for players to purchase for a limited time.
  • For exotic armor, Xur has Phoenix Cradle, Nezarec’s Sin, and Graviton Foreit.
  • Xur’s exotic weapons include a new Hawkmoon, Sweet Business, The Queenbreaker, and Graviton Lance.

Once more, Xur has made an appearance in the world of Destiny 2, showcasing fresh exotic and legendary items for gamers to explore temporarily. This week is particularly exciting for Bungie enthusiasts since the Episode: Heresy storyline came to a close in Destiny 2. Additionally, there’s an upcoming gameplay unveiling of Marathon scheduled for April 12th.

Now that the Marathon has come to a close, there’s been a growing curiosity about what lies ahead for Destiny 2. Since Episode: Heresy’s narrative has concluded and Bungie isn’t yet ready to discuss Codename: Frontiers, Destiny 2 finds itself in a temporary standstill. However, the Act isn’t completely over, as we can expect the previously leaked Rite of the Nine activity in Destiny 2 soon. Nonetheless, fans are eagerly awaiting the next major update.

Currently, the enigmatic vendor Xur has made another appearance in the game ‘Destiny 2’. Here is a guide detailing his whereabouts this weekend, updates on his exotic cipher quest, and a rundown of all the exotic and legendary items he’s offering for sale from April 11, 2025.

Where is Xur?

Now, you’ll find Xur permanently stationed within The Tower’s Bazaar region, eliminating the need for weekend searches to locate him.

Because the Marketplace sits conveniently between two rapid travel spots, players have the freedom to select either one as their entry point. Navigate to the spot where Ikora and Hawthorne often gather, then search for the Ramen Shop positioned against the back wall. With the shop facing you, the covert alleyway leading to Xur is located on your right side.

Destiny 2 Class Armor and Exotic Cipher

Each week, Xur carries on providing the traditional lineup of quests, exotics, and high-quality gear. These tasks are essential not only to obtain a second fated engram but also to get hold of legacy exotic equipment from the Tower kiosk. Players can grab a fresh cipher by accomplishing strikes or winning in Crucible or Gambit matches. Earn extra points for teaming up with clan members or tackling more difficult tasks.

Xur’s Exotic Armor

Nezarec’s Sin – Warlock helmet

Exotic Perk:

  • – Void-damage kills increase ability energy recharge rate.

Generally speaking, this item is often suitable for Voidwalker Warlocks, but its distribution of stats could be improved, as Mobility has been rolled as the highest stat.

Stat Values (68 Total):

  • Mobility +16
  • Resilience +13
  • Recovery +7
  • Discipline +10
  • Intellect +10
  • Strength +12

Graviton Forfeit – Hunter helmet

Exotic Perk:

  • – Increases the duration of any invisibility effects. While you are invisible, your melee recharges faster, your weapons reload faster, and your Recovery is greatly increased.

An excellent choice for vacant structures that require stealth capabilities. I’d recommend considering it this week.

Alternatively,

For abandoned buildings requiring invisibility as a key feature, this is an ideal selection to explore this week.

Stat Values (66 Total):

  • Mobility +12
  • Resilience +2
  • Recovery +21
  • Discipline +10
  • Intellect +15
  • Strength +6

Phoenix Cradle – Titan leg armor

Exotic Perk:

  • – Sol Invictus lasts twice as long. Allies who pass through your Sunspot are granted Sol Invictus and Solar restoration.

These items are more about providing support and can prove quite beneficial in collaborative activities. However, their downside lies in the fact that their total rating is relatively low at 62, which may be considered underwhelming for some users.

Stat Values (62 total):

  • Mobility +2
  • Resilience +10
  • Recovery +20
  • Discipline +10
  • Intellect +14
  • Strength +6
