Summary
Xur has returned again toDestiny 2, complete with new exotic and legendary gear for players to check out for a limited time. Although Episode Revenant is coming to a close in the next few weeks, Bungie revealed that it still has a few surprises left for players. The studio revealed a newDestiny 2event called Past is Prologue, where players can complete quests, earn Bento Tokens, and exchange them for some rare rewards.
Alongside that news, Bungie also confirmed a few changes coming to Solar, Void, and Arc subclasses. The company confirmed thatDestiny 2is adding 1 new aspect for each elemental subclass, giving players more flexibility with their builds. In addition, Arc is getting a new buff called Bolt Charge, which builds over time until it unleashes a damaging electrical bolt at enemies when an ability is triggered.
For now though, the weekend merchant Xur is back with a new inventory of gear forDestiny 2players. 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 July 07, 2025.
Where is Xur?
Xur has now taken up permanent residence in the Bazaar area inside The Tower, so there’s no more hunting when the weekend comes around.
Since the Bazaar is located 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 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 toacquire 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.
The Stag - Warlock helmet
Exotic Perk:
A Rift specific exotic that is likely overshadowed by some of the other in meta options Warlocks have access to this season. Certainly not a must-have, but it can be handy in certain activities.
Wormhusk Crown - Hunter helmet
Fairly spikey armor this week with really high Mobility and Intellect, while the other stats are on the lower side. Wormhusk used to be a powerful exotic and while it isn’t quite what it used to be, it can still get players out of a tough spot by providing a bit of quick healing.
Crest of Alpha Lupi - Titan chest armor
Another capable and solid exotic armor piece that provides a good benefit by producing additional orbs as well as a way to heal when using Barricade.
Stat Values (66 total):
