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!
Never forget what was lost. While the API protests have concluded, Reddit remains hostile to its users.

Godroll BotA at Xür is crazy

u/toastSensei 4d ago
Whoa. Indeed. My edition moved those class stat points to Melee tho. Grr.
11
u/toastSensei 4d ago
Ah, figured out why I was seeing that...PSA for anyone following along...I looked at Xur via DIM, lat character used was titan with ghost mod set for a melee build, so DIM was showing all those class points moved over to melee. I loaded in my warlock with ghost mod set to class, and got the roll as advertised above. Whew. Very nice roll.

What makes it a godroll?

u/MrCounterSnipe 4d ago
BotA is great for raid team damage, you want high weapons for you and 100 super and class to pop Well or your Rift and make your whole team happy with +35% Damage up. This is one of two best possible rolls for that (the other being class+weap+super tertiary)

Mannnnn more Bushido? My titan is crying out for swordmaster

u/AqueleMalucoLa 4d ago
Do you know about that bug (?) that consists in farming master lost sectors?
I'm pretty sure you can get the swordmaster armor that way
5
u/Gktindall 4d ago
I do know about it. Unfortunately you cannot get swordmaster this way. It's only Techsec, Smoke Jumper, and Ferropotent.
The only guaranteed way to get swordmaster is if Xur brings it or by focusing via Zavala

u/Artaxeus 3d ago edited 3d ago
Do master lost sectors with full engrams and the drops go to the postmaster. When you go back to pick them up it replaces the normal drops with world loot pool drops.
Master lost sectors drop a teir 5.Does that mean above quote is inaccurate and I shouldn't waste my time doing it?
1
u/AqueleMalucoLa 3d ago
It is correct.
If you do that you have a chance of getting the Smoke Jumper, Ferropotent, and Techsec armor sets.

u/Skreamie My ToO team always let me down 4d ago
No Vanguard Engrams?
1
u/Gktindall 4d ago
Takes too long to farm out one engram unfortunately.
Especially since it always decrypts with health stat
2
u/Skreamie My ToO team always let me down 4d ago
Ah thats unfortunate, I got lucky with my ghost mod recently. Found I didnt have a T5 and luckily had some engrams I hadn't used. Got the 4. Here's hoping you get it soon, brother.

I am out here begging for a class sword of any kind

u/SpeedWeed_25 4d ago
Honestly, I'd not bother with Death's Razor, Falling Guillotine is superior in all regards

Falling Guillotine is superior in all regards
Which perks are considered the best these days? Worth grinding for?
1
u/BareFox 2d ago
For damage go for Vorpal or Frenzy in the first column and Bait and Switch, Whirlwind Blade or Elemental Honing in the second. Or maybe Surrounded but that's more situational!
For more utility purposes you should probably go for Attrition Orbs and Eager Edge. Honestly the thing is juiced to the gills with great perks nowadays so probably any Tier 5 drop of it will be good haha
1
u/SplashDmgEnthusiast 4d ago
At least they can sometimes drop from the engrams, I've been spending all my Strange Coins on the weapon engram for probably a month now. Trying to finish Death's Razor and Goldtusk personally, we'll get there some day!

u/Comfortable_Fly6046 4d ago
Fighting Lion catalyst…my own small version of hell doing that 😂
2
u/puanonymou5 Team Cat (Cozmo23) // Dave Meowthews 4d ago
It is a chore for sure, but more fun than other underwhelming exotics. You just yeet grenades all day, like a Junkrat with only 1 in the chamber. It does teach you how to time the trigger to manually explode grenades, which being able to do so while moving around and double jumping is a skill in and of itself that is worth at least trying out.

u/Codzmcgodz 4d ago
I just completed it on stasis titan using FL instead of icebreaker. Takes awhile but it gets completed eventually. Don’t have to worry about timing your shots lol
2
u/puanonymou5 Team Cat (Cozmo23) // Dave Meowthews 4d ago
I would make a joke about actually playing the game with the exotics vs brute forcing the catalyst in a boring farm, but man did using Loadstar with a Shinobu's Vow build to complete the catalyst suuuuuuck. Takes away from grenades obviously, but it was so much slower at ad clearing and pretty much everything.
2
u/DiemCarpePine 3d ago
Should have done Mask of Bakris.
1
u/puanonymou5 Team Cat (Cozmo23) // Dave Meowthews 1d ago
I already had an arc autorifle in that build, and spend most of the time throwing grenades or firing off special/heavy in between. It just slotted in nicely and I only used a primary every so often. Just took forever, since grenades are my main focus, but it fit the build so I dealt with it in general content.
2
u/Comfortable_Fly6046 4d ago
That’s true, it was just the 1000 kills that was a bit much. Worst thing is I haven’t used it since 😂
2
u/puanonymou5 Team Cat (Cozmo23) // Dave Meowthews 4d ago
Bruh, who the hell makes these kill requirements? I pulled out a Devils Ruin the other day to finish a sidearm order, and figured I might as well start working on the catalyst. After realizing the actual number was in DIM, I looked at some of my remaining ones. Apparently somebody thinks that 300 kills for Devils Ruin is OK, but Fafnir needs 700! There were several out of whack looking requirements, like low kill numbers for primaries compared to specials and heavy, or no compensation for the ammo economy. Like, who looks at a primary, looks at a heavy weapon and goes, "yeah, they need at least 2x-3x kills on the heavy."
Edit: 1000 is wild. I think I didn't notice because I probably got that bad boy finished before I even earned my Mountaintop!

u/TurquoiseLuck 3d ago
I did Faf while grinding out Renegades and Frontiers. It does an AOE explosion around you if you hold down reload, so I'd just go use that whenever I got more ammo
1
u/puanonymou5 Team Cat (Cozmo23) // Dave Meowthews 1d ago
That is very good to know, I will definitely be using that when working on it. Makes more traditional methods of a bunch of ads more viable. Its one of the few left to finish, but that is probably lowest on my list, as at least Salvations Grip can be a fun grind.
2
u/UUDDLRLRBAstard 3d ago
1000 kills is 333 group shots.
That’s how to use fighting lion. Now that it has volatile, it can’t take that long. Pair it with a blinding gl and the catalyst grind becomes cake.

Just got my bro back into D2 after he got tired of Helldivers. He's been gone since mid-Witch Queen. He's got to pick up that Lost Signal for sure, maybe Eremite too. They aren't top rolls, but just to get him one period.
13
u/Sweepy_time 4d ago
Pick up 5 of each in case he wants to craft it later if he saves up enough harmonizers
2
u/Seeker80 Notorious Space Hobo 4d ago
I would have him jump on that, but he won't have the Strange Coins. He just started up Sunday.
He didn't have any Chronologs to grab the Inbound Surveillance from Zavala before reset. I'm hoping he'll have some to unlock the Mint Retrograde from this week. The rocket sidearms & pulses are totally new to him, so I want to help him try those(we were big sidearm fans in D1).
2
u/GrimPhantom23 4d ago
Are you gonna recommend one of the Mint rolls with slice to hum since current Zavala will be the easiest way to get one
1
u/Seeker80 Notorious Space Hobo 4d ago
Depends on how many Chronologs he's got. Can't remember which rolls will have Slice. He may not have earned enough to unlock them all. He's starting from zero this week.
2
u/GrimPhantom23 4d ago
Idk how many chronologs it takes but 3, 4, and 5 have slice. And then 4 and 5 are near identical with the only real difference being one has Bait and Switch as a damage perk and the other has elemental honing
2
u/Seeker80 Notorious Space Hobo 3d ago
We've got a little time tomorrow to get together, so I'll see about helping him earn both some Strange Coins & Chronologs.
Strangely, he also missed out on the Black Armory the first time. He was playing, just didn't want to run the forges for some reason. So I'll pull him into some Arena Ops and see what he can get from there.
2
u/Seeker80 Notorious Space Hobo 2d ago
Good times yesterday.
We got him both Punching Out rolls from the Vanguard Alerts. That also got him chronologs to unlock Mint Retrograde, which he loves now. Showed him how to get a Returned Memory from the kiosk. That's a first rocket pulse and rocket sidearm.
Got him to attune for Blast Furnace in Arena Ops. That was his first Kinetic Tremors weapon, so he's enjoying that too.
We ran distortions in the Cosmodrome and got him nearly a full set of Seventh Seraph armor. He mains Titan and liked Behemoth before, so I set him up with the crystal spam build.
Lastly, I got him to Xûr for Lost Signal, his first area denial frame. He was a big Witherhoard fan back when it was new, ao he's enjoying that legendary take on it.
All this to get him a good start for grinding stuff out when I can't play with him.
2
u/GrimPhantom23 19h ago
Glad to hear he's having fun. You set him up with the Slayer Baron artifact?
2
u/Seeker80 Notorious Space Hobo 2h ago
I...forgot. Didn't cover artifacts. We got cut short, and I had been too busy making sure he knew about the new systems. Like turning in the daily objectives, the weekly arsenal, how to do distortions and the 'Strange Signal.' Ran out of time.
I had totally forgotten about the 'Returner' bonus stuff. He had that waiting for him too, so that helped a lot.

u/TheMagicStik 4d ago
If I stop getting exotic catalysts from the Exotic Orders does that mean I have no more left to earn or bad RNG?
6
u/MyDickIs3cm 4d ago
I believe that means you are out of them to earn through orders. Same boat for about the last 10. You still may have unobtained ones from raid/dungeons etc
2
u/urbanreflex 4d ago
You can check collections to see what catalysts you need from where. Sounds like you're done with the random drop ones.

Dear Xur... About that Relativism roll I've wasted so so many coins trying to get...
1
u/KingofBlah37 4d ago
Sure would be great if that BotA roll was what's available to me. On Hunter, I see Melee+Super+Weapons. On Titan, I see Melee+Grenade+Super. And on Warlock, I see Grenade+Super+Class. Why do I not see the roll that's listed here?

Check your ghost mod for armor focus type and adjust accordingly.

He will never sell a good Hawkmoon lol. I wish it had another source to obtain.
