Next week in Destiny 2<\/em><\/strong> is already shaping up to be another big one for the popular looter shooter. Not only does the December 8 reset bring about the first instance of Iron Banner inside of the Beyond Light era, but the fan favorite Prophecy Dungeon also makes its return<\/a> much sooner than previously expected. In addition, players on the PS5 and Xbox Series X\/S<\/p>\n

In some unfortunate news, Trials of Osiris and the return of Adept Weapons have once again been postponed<\/a> while Bungie fixes a number of bugs and exploits that would likely have derailed the experience. Thankfully, Bungie has also provided an update as to when the competitive game mode will be available. As of now, Bungie is targeting December 18, two weeks from now, for the mode to finally debut.<\/p>\n

Considering that it’s Friday, players should be hunting down the weekend vendor Xur, who has not not only returned to the world of\u00a0Destiny 2<\/a>,<\/em> but he’s\u00a0brought with him a new selection of exotic items.<\/em>\u00a0Follow this guide for his location, news on his exotic cypher quest, as well as a review of what he’s currently selling for the weekend of December 4, 2020.<\/p>\n

Through this weekend, Xur can be found within the European Dead Zone on his usual cliff.<\/p>\n

Fast travel to the Winding Cove zone and immediately head towards the back where the Fallen typically patrol. Climb the cliffs back here to find Xur standing on a ledge not too far from a crashed ship.<\/p>\n

While Xur’s role is essentially the same as it was prior to the Beyond Light expansion, the exotic merchant\u00a0also has weekly quests that players can acquire to unlock an exotic cypher. Not only are these required to purchase a second fated engram, but they’re necessary to acquire legacy exotic gear from the new kiosk<\/a>.\u00a0Players can earn a new cypher by completing strikes and winning crucible or gambit matches. Gain bonus points for playing with clanmates or finishing more challenging activities.<\/p>\n

Other than that, here are Xur’s three gear pieces this weekend:<\/p>\n

Verity’s Brow\u00a0– Warlock\u00a0helmet<\/strong><\/p>\n

Verity’s Brow is an exotic helm which was at one point given to all players who finished the Warmind DLC campaign, which is now inside the Destiny Content Vault<\/a>.\u00a0Its exotic perk is called The Fourth Magic, which causes energy weapon kills to boost grenade energy for the player and any nearby enemies. This effect can stack up to three times.<\/p>\n

The item itself is definitely useful, especially when paired with strong energy weapons like Riskrunner. While the stat roll on it isn’t great this week, the armor is still worth picking up for those who don’t have it.<\/p>\n

Solar\u00a0Enhanced. Stat Values:<\/p>\n
