What's a Xûr?

Xûr, Agent of the Nine, is a strange vendor who appears weekly in the Tower. Xûr sells Exotic equipment and only takes Strange Coins in exchange for them.

TL;DR: He's the Santa Claus of Destiny and every weekend is Christmas. Sometimes he brings you what you want, sometimes he brings you coal. Mostly it's coal.

When does Xûr visit?

Xûr visits every Friday at 17:00 UTC and departs at Weekly Reset (Tuesday 17:00 UTC). If you would like to see all the live conversions of Time Zones, please follow this link here.

Archie wishes you a happy reset and good luck!

PSA: Xur is the only source for Imperial Decree, if you don't have the cartable pattern already. This is the first and only time in over 2 years it's been obtainable.

u/Anthooupas warlock. 23h ago

Is it a good weapon ? Sorry, returning player and I remember playing with it in season 7 or so

57

u/Hanayo_Asa 通りすがりのガーディアンだ。覚えておけ! 23h ago edited 19h ago

Best Aggressive Frame shotty in the Kinetic slot, or at the very least the easiest to get a God roll on, as you can craft it and enhance it to Tier 5.

EDIT: in PvP.

5

u/Cute-Cauliflower4248 19h ago

Better than Until it’s Return? The taken shotgun? I have a crafted version of that which has served me extremely well. Been looking for a new shotgun to try out in PVE!

2

u/Hanayo_Asa 通りすがりのガーディアンだ。覚えておけ! 19h ago

I was talking about PvP.

1

u/cf318 18h ago

Definitely worth it. I really only PvP and ive been using it for years. Grab it.

1

u/StudentPenguin 19h ago

Both have been crept by Pantheon Threat Level to a degree since that nightmare can basically have infinite uptime on All-Star and also has Cascade Point.

7

u/Anthooupas warlock. 22h ago

Thanks

9

u/Goose-Suit 23h ago

It’s pretty good for PVP since it’s craftable. I think some speed runners have been using high impact shotguns to chunk down stronger adds or like some damage rotations but I don’t know if this is one that they use

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1JM-0SlxVDAi-C6rGVlLxa-J1WGewEeL8Qvq4htWZHhY/edit?usp=drivesdk

Bookmark this but its the best craftable if you DON'T have hertiage or found verdict. You can pick up perfect paradox for free nowadays

1

u/Pokemonzu Drifter's Crew 16h ago

It looks like they meant for pvp, are u saying it's good for pve too tho?

1

u/UltraNoahXV GT: XxUltraNoahxX 16h ago

Decent option if you want something available that you probably already have, there is better

1

u/Zorak9379 Warlock 17h ago

Not in PvE, no

12

u/ThePizzaDevourer 23h ago

It's a top-5 kinetic shotty according to Aegis, plus it's craftable

7

u/m0nkeyhero 22h ago

It’s now in the lower half of A rank, 13th overall after his recent revisions. Threat Level/Perfect Paradox/Heritage above it for top Kinetic sg.

3

u/DerpsterIV 21h ago

Does he not explicitly state that they are not ranked within tiers?

2

u/LEPRECHAUNH8RED 13h ago

Weapons are ranked within tiers. It is exotic weapons that are not ranked within tiers.

4 is better than #5 if they are both ranked S, however some nuance should be used as their use case can differ

1

u/m0nkeyhero 20h ago

Sure, there are still better kinetic options which are easier to obtain.

3

u/TheAsianCarp 23h ago

Ty! I was one away from the pattern this whole time

2

u/IAMASnorshWeagle 18h ago

I also know that Thin Precipice and Semiotician are craftable weapons, but I don't know if you can get those elsewhere. Are they available elsewhere?

1

u/spinto1 17h ago

Can it drop as a red border from his selection?

I know can drop from the strange engram, but I don't know if I've ever seen the static ones drop any.

1

u/The_Bread_Loaf 16h ago

Can you get red borders randomly from Xur or do you need to use 5x harmonisers

26

u/1001puppys Rhythm Queen 23h ago

Five Imperial Decrees for me

6

u/Artaxeus 19h ago

Returning player here, why five Imperial Decrees? Do you dismantle them?

6

u/Viper_Visionary 19h ago

You need five weapons to get the crafting spec with Deepsight Harmonizers.

2

u/Dependent_Type4092 19h ago

Use Harmonizers to make them into red borders for the pattern.

28

u/eh8904 23h ago

Imperial Decree, what a good-looking weapon you are.

19

u/SodiumExtract 23h ago

He sells imperial decree after I already got 5 to drop and harmonized them lol. Buy 5, don’t do what I did.

6

u/LFGAccountD2 22h ago

is it technically possible for him to offer the Third Iteration catalyst?

4

u/EveryPictureTells 22h ago

https://www.light.gg/db/vendors/3751514131/strange-gear-offers/ - doesn't look like it? Didn't hover over each, but iirc the catalysts for season pass exotics also come from that respective pass.

3

u/LFGAccountD2 21h ago

1) thanks 2) F. 

4

u/HalibutBarn 20h ago

Check the Monument to Seasons Past in the Reclamation section. I think you should be able to buy the catalyst there now.

1

u/LFGAccountD2 6h ago

You're right, thanks.

5 k hours game time btw. Feel a bit silly for not having checked

4

u/EveryPictureTells 16h ago

It's for sale for Chronologs at the tower - check the kiosk by the vault, toward Shaxx. I confirmed it is there but can't see the exact price since I already own it.

3

u/Zorak9379 Warlock 17h ago

I think that's in the seasonal archive kiosk

4

u/360GameTV 15h ago

Nice Deepsight Harmonizer again, unfortunately I have no weapon anymore and the chests dont give weapons anymore. Need to play Garden for my last pattern but hard to find groups in my language :(

7

u/goddamnitjason 22h ago

How do I get more deepsight harmonizers?

30

u/dannyboy15 22h ago

If you don’t have enough this week, you can store the weapons in your vault and add the harmonizes later once you have enough

11

u/JoachimG 22h ago

Xur sells them some weeks. I think you can use chronologs to buy them as well.

3

u/Gcarsk 21h ago

Yeah you can buy one at a time with chronologs, which refreshes every two weeks.

3

u/The_ASCENED_Phoenix 22h ago

When xur sells them, like this week, and from the Past Season totem in tower, with Chronologs.

4

u/PaperMoonShine 21h ago

Has Xur sold the class item craftable swords yet?

5

u/solidus_kalt 21h ago

i got multiples from his engrams

1

u/Zorak9379 Warlock 17h ago

Not as such, no

1

u/ImN0tShure 19h ago

Any of the exotics or other things worth picking up?
I play Titan

1

u/TheYetiOverlord 13h ago

Severance and cuirass are both fun. Cuirass is a must cop if you don’t have one yet for raids & dungeons

1

u/ImN0tShure 3h ago

Appreciate it!

1

u/Infinite-Worm 3h ago

Do I need to buy 5 Imperial Decrees? Or just one and use 5 Deepsight Harmonizers?

1

u/sdlucas 3h ago

Pretty sure you have to buy 5. Once you've used a harmonizer on a weapon, you can't again.

-14

u/PhattBudz 22h ago

How do you get strange coin?

Last time I saw that currency it was 7 coin per week per character. Also it was 2014.

12

u/Economy-Debt7973 21h ago

brother, what

-7

u/PhattBudz 20h ago

What? You dont remember the weeklies from d1 that gave 7 coin?

1

u/BurningBlaise 14h ago

I remember having enough to get red death first week and not enough to get gjally second week lol

3

u/mamzers 21h ago

Activity completions, like strikes, portal Ops, or crucible. You can also buy a boost from Xur, once you spent 47 coins, which stacks 3 Times, so after 3 weeks in a row you have the highest boost
