What Is Worth Buying From Xur This Week?
Let’s delve into some specific recommendations for Xur’s inventory this week:
Coldheart
Coldheart was originally an exclusive weapon for those who pre-ordered Destiny 2 in 2017. With the release of Curse of Osiris, it became available to all players. Coldheart is a trace rifle that fires a continuous beam. Its first exotic perk, Cold Fusion, allows it to deal damage in the form of an Arc beam. The second perk, Longest Winter, causes Coldheart to inflict increasing damage the longer it remains focused on a single target. This weapon is particularly useful in certain PvE scenarios and can provide a thrilling experience. If you missed out on acquiring it before, now is your chance to add it to your collection.
Wormhusk Crown
Wormhusk Crown is an exotic helmet introduced in the Warmind expansion. If you were playing during 2018, you might already have a good roll of this helmet. However, with the Warmind campaign no longer available, the easiest way to obtain a new roll is by purchasing it from Xur this week. Its exotic perk, Burning Souls, grants healing upon dodging. This helmet is particularly potent in PvP activities, making it a must-have for PvP-focused players.
Stronghold
Stronghold is a pair of exotic gauntlets with the Clenched Fist perk, which grants maximum guard stats when wielding a sword. It also reduces damage taken while guarding and provides health regeneration when damaging enemies shortly after blocking. The usefulness of this exotic is dependent on the prominence of swords in the current meta. However, when swords are effective, Stronghold becomes an incredibly powerful asset for Titans. It’s definitely worth adding to your collection for those rainy days.
Wings of Sacred Dawn
Wings of Sacred Dawn is undeniably one of the most visually distinct exotics in Destiny 2. Its exotic perk, Tome of Sacred Dawn, allows you to hover in mid-air while aiming, prolonging your suspension for a short period of time. The longer you manage to hit enemies while airborne, the longer you can stay aloft. This exotic also significantly enhances the effectiveness of airborne weapons. It’s an excellent choice for players who enjoy the aerial superiority offered by the Dawnblade subclass. Try it out if you’re a fan of aerial combat and raining fire from above.
Exotic Cipher Quest
Starting from Beyond Light, Xur now offers a quest to acquire an Exotic Cipher. This valuable item allows you to purchase old exotics from the Monuments to Lost Light kiosk in the Tower. To complete this week’s quest, you’ll need to finish 21 Strikes or win matches in Crucible or Gambit. Successfully completing the quest will reward you with an Exotic Cipher that can be used to obtain sought-after exotics like Heir Apparent and Truth.
