Happy Xursday, everyone. It's Friday, which means that Xur is back in the tower. This week, he's brought his dancing boots.

He's also packing an extra upgrade option for PlayStation players, and one of the most desirable pieces of Warlock armor. Those that like to play as Voidwalkers might want to consider those Voidfang Vestments. Here's the full rundown:

Location: He's in the bar below the hangar this week. From the spawn point, head right, pass the Cryptarch, go down the hallway and the stairs to the hangar. Go past the stairs to the shipwright and through the hallway. Just follow the music and he's in the back corner enjoying a drink.
