[Last Chance] Where Is Xur? Destiny 2 Location And Exotic Weapons Guide (Feb. 22-26)

There's only one more week of the Season of the Forge, which means Destiny 2 is gearing up for new content. It also means there are a few last season-ending events to partake in before everything resets on March 5, including the Iron Banner this week and a Triple Infamy Gambit event starting on February 26. And There are just two visits before the end of the season from Xur, Emissary of the Nine, from whom you can buy Exotic weapons and armor. Today is your last chance to buy from Xur before the reset on Tuesday--the last reset of the Season of the Forge.

You'll find Xur this week on Io, in the Giant's Scar region. From the transmat location, hop on your sparrow and head north. Follow the western edge of the area, where you'll find a cliff wall, and look for a cave cut within it. You'll find Xur within.

The gun Xur offers this week is Graviton Lance, which is great if you're spending some time in the final Iron Banner of the season. The pulse rifle does particularly high damage with its second shot, and kills with Graviton Lance create an explosion that spits off Void projectiles that hit other enemies. It's also a highly accurate gun that does a lot of damage, which makes it great for hitting people at range in the Crucible.

For Titans, Xur brings the Synthoceps gauntlets, which increase your melee lunge distance and give you additional melee and Super damage when you're surrounded. Hunters get the Orpheus Rig leg armor, which provides more shots for the Moebius Quiver version of the Shadowshot Super, and gives you back ability energy for every enemy you tether with it. Finally, Warlocks can pick up the Aeon Soul gauntlets, which gives allies class ability energy whenever you throw a grenade, with additional energy gains if those allies are also wearing Aeon Cult Exotic armor.

• Graviton Lance (Exotic pulse rifl) -- 29 Legendary Shards
• Orpheus Rig (Exotic Hunter leg armor) -- 23 Legendary Shards
• Aeon Soul (Exotic Warlock gauntlets) -- 23 Legendary Shards
• Synthoceps (Exotic Titan gauntlets) -- 23 Legendary Shards

Also available from Xur is the Fated engram. This costs a whopping 97 Legendary shards but will decrypt into a Year One Exotic you don't already own (assuming you haven't collected them all). While pricey, it's a reliable way to fill out your Exotic collection. Additionally, Xur has the Five of Swords challenge card that lets you add modifiers to Nightfall Strikes.

March 5 marks the beginning of the sixth season of Destiny 2, the Season of the Drifter. It'll include another Exotic weapon quest--teasers suggest it's for the Destiny 1 hand cannon Thorn--and seems likely to push forward the Drifter's story. That's quickly becoming one of the more interesting plot lines going on in Destiny 2 right now; read our lore catch-up to see why.
