Destiny - Xur's Gear And Upgrades For The Weekend Of March 27

by Mike Futter on Mar 27, 2015 at 01:04 AM

Happy Xursday, everyone! The Agent of the Nine is in the Tower and he doesn't have No Land Beyond. That alone is reason to celebrate.

This week, he's got another primary weapon (and one we haven't seen in a while). He's also got a solid Warlock helmet if you love slinging nova bombs. Here's the full rundown:

Location: Hall of Guardians, near the Crucible Quartermaster. Walk straight ahead from the spawn point and down the stairs. He's on the left.

MIDA Multi-tool (exotic scout rifle) - 23 strange coins

  • Kinetic Damage
  • Attack: 302/331
  • Third Eye (Radar stays active while aiming down this weapon’s sights)
  • MIDA Multi-Tool (This weapon boosts move speed and fires on a hair trigger)

Ruin WIngs (Titan arms, The Dark Below) - 13 strange coins

  • Defense: 333/366
  • Light: 30/36
  • Strength: 91/98
  • Special Weapon Loader (Increases the reload speed of all special weapons)
  • Impact Induction (Causing damage with a melee reduces your grenade cooldown)
  • Seeds of Ruin (Heavy ammo drops more often, and contains more ammo in each drop) 

Aclyophage Symbiote (Hunter helmet) - 13 strange coins

  • Defense: 407/447
  • Light: 30/36
  • Discipline: 87/94
  • Fastball (Increase grenade throw distance)
  • Ashes to Asset (Replenishes super energy when you kill an enemy with a grenade)
  • Last Man Standing (Golden Gun gets an extra shot)

Obsidian Mind (Warlock helmet, The Dark Below) - 13 strange coins

  • Defense: 407/447
  • Light: 30/36
  • Intellect: 66/71
  • Strength: 61/66 
  • Energy Projection (Increase grenade throw distance)
  • Inverse Shadow (Killing enemies charges super energy)
  • Insatiable (Nova Bomb kills reduce the cooldown of your next Nova Bomb)

As usual, he also has exotic shards (seven strange coins), the Urn of Sacrifice and bounty items (one strange coin), Sparrow upgrades (twenty-three strange coins), and telemetry for pulse rifles, hand cannons, and fusion rifles (one strange coin). Exotic gauntlet engrams will set you back 23 motes of light. Xur is carrying heavy ammo synth packs this week.

This week’s upgrade list includes the following:

  • Achlyophage Symbiote (Hunter helmet)
  • Crest of Alpha Lupi (Hunter chest)
  • The Armamentarium (Titan chest)
  • No Backup Plans (Titan arms)
  • Skull of Dire Ahamkara (Warlock helmet)
  • Apotheosis Veil (Warlock helmet)
  • Bad Juju (pulse rifle)
  • Last Word (hand cannon)
  • Thorn (hand cannon)
  • Invective (shotgun)
  • Pocket Infinity (fusion rifle)
  • Thunderlord (machine gun)
