Summary
Xur has returned again toDestiny 2, complete with new exotic and legendary gear for players to check out for a limited time. Next week promises to be a big one for players with an influx of new content outside of the arrival of Act 2. Bungie also confirmed that the2025 edition of Guardian Games forDestiny 2is also set to launch, bringing back the Medallion competition with a few new twists and rewards as well.
On top of that, players still haveDestiny 2’s Moments of Triumphto work through. After launching during the first March reset, players have had the opportunity to work through any of the challenges they’ve yet to organically complete and, as in years past, there are various rewards to unlock at set milestone numbers, including this year’s seal, a Bungie Rewards shirt, and other in-game items.
In the meantime, however, the exotic 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 June 06, 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 hanging out and look for the Ramen Shop towards the back wall. While facing the shop, the alley hiding Xur is to the right.
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:
Usually a tough sell and it won’t compete with many of the current “in meta” exotics during Episode Heresy. Still, the roll is pretty good this week at a 67, so at the very least, it could replace some worse/collection roll versions.
Ophidia Spathe - Hunter chest armor
A solid pick for Gunslinger Hunters as it gives a second knife charge and a damage bonus for those who manage to get final blows with them. In addition, the roll this week is very high at a 68 total, so it’s a solid pickup.
Citan’s Ramparts - Titan gauntlets
Probably a better option for PvP-style activities, the big problem with this one is the fairly low roll at a 61. Because of that, it’s a tough sell this week and one that can likely be skipped.
Stat Values (61 total):
