Destiny’s weekly exotic item vendor, Xur, is back in the Tower once again and has brought along a range of exotic items for us to enjoy. Since last week, we hope many of you have saved up strange coins, as we have a new potential of grabbing House of Wolves gear. Exotic Engrams are back once again!
This week, Xur is located next to the Crucible Quartermaster, in The Tower.
Now to look at Xur’s inventory for this week:
He holds the following exotic gear:
Crest of Alpha Lupi
Achlyophage Symbiote
Nothing Manacles
Patience and Time
Exotic Engram
Exotic Shard
And the following Curios:
Scout Rifle Telemetry
Shotgun Telemetry
Sniper Rifle Telemetry
Void Drive
Stealth Drive
Heavy Ammo Synthesis
And the same single material exchange:
2 Strange Coins > 1 Mote of Light
Our pick for this week is the Exotic sniper rifle, Patience and Time. Not only is this a rifle with great damage, it also has many great perks to side with it. Firstly, this weapon has Arc damage, which is one of the less common damage types in Destiny. This helps massively with the Cabal boss in Prison of Elders, when Valus Trau’ug uses his dynamic shields. The unique perks for this weapon allow radar to be used when scoped, and active camouflage will activate when aimed down sights. This is a great purchase for 17 Strange Coins, and since the House of Wolves DLC release, is now much more useful.
