If you played Destiny, you may be familiar with Xur, the weekly Exotic item merchant. In Destiny 2, he’s back, and he now appears all over the map. This week, you can find Xur on The Tower, standing in The Hangar.

Xur’s inventory this week consists of the following:

  • Graviton Lance, Pulse Rifle: 29 Legendary Shards
  • St0mp-ee5, Hunter boots: 23 Legendary Shards
  • Transversive Steps, Warlock boots: 23 Legendary Shards
  • Ursa Furiosa, Titan gauntlets: 23 Legendary Shards
  • Isochronal Engram: 97 Legendary Shards
  • Invitation quest: 9 Legendary Shards

Xur’s inventory caps out at 931 if you’re 950. He also offers specific rolls on each armor piece each week, giving out different perks for the same pieces.

GRAVITON LANCE

Graviton Lance’s exotic perk is Black Hole, which causes the gun to only fire two bullets: one with low damage and the other with high damage. The second perk, Cosmology, causes kills with Graviton Lance to make the enemy explode and spawn void missiles that seek targets. This can cause a chain reaction of explosions, which can be extremely powerful in certain situations.

Graviton Lance is an excellent exotic and feels unique in the landscape of Destiny 2’s arsenal. It’s excellent in PvP as well, and can shred through enemies very quickly if they aren’t paying attention. Graviton Lance’s problems stem from the same kinds of issues a lot of exotics have, in that there are certain weapons that are just more powerful. Why run Graviton when you can have Thunderlord or Whisper of the Worm?

Because it’s fun and good, that’s why. If you’re missing Graviton Lance, pick it up from Xur this week.

ST0MP-EE5

St0mp-EE5 is a powerful traversal exotic for Hunters. The exotic perk, Hydraulic Boosters, increases slide and sprint speed, as well as increases jump height. This exotic is very strong in a myriad of situations. In PvE content, it can be great for getting where you need to go quickly. In PvP, it’s a perfect exotic to disorient foes and get to unexpected places quickly.

Xur’s roll this week is Arc, and comes with 48 total stats.

TRANSVERSIVE STEPS

Transversive Steps are the Warlock speedy boots, and they’re a very good catch-all exotic. Their exotic perk, Strange Protractor, increases your sprint speed and automatically reloads your energy weapons. The reloading is secondary to just how powerful movement speed is in Destiny 2. Make sure to pick them up if you don’t have them yet.

Xur’s roll this week is Arc, and comes with 48 total stats.

URSA FURIOSA

Ursa Furiosa is a set of Exotic gauntlets from Forsaken. Its Exotic perk is Ursine Guard, which refunds Super energy when you block damage with Sentinel Shield. You also move faster with Sentinel Shield active. There was a time when these Exotics were dominant, but Bungie nerfed them, and now they’re underwhelming. If you love running Sentinel Shield, or it’s missing from your collection, pick these up.

Xur’s roll this week is Void, and comes with 50 total stats.

Invitation

If you haven’t completed the Invitation quest yet, Xur is still offering it for nine Legendary Shards.
