Alongside the Crucible, the longstandingProphecy dungeon is getting big changes in March. While the encounter isn’t changing, the loot players will be uncovering is, as three weapons are getting removed from the loot pool, being replaced by primary weapons, with the existing loot getting a variety of new perk options. In addition to refreshed loot, all Prophecy weapons will be dropping with the Crossing Over Origin Trait, making the first half of the ammo magazine grant a range and handling bonus, with the second half boosting damage.
With the weekend finally here, Xur has returned again with a whole selection of exotics and legendary gear forDestiny 2players over the next few days. Follow this guide for his current weekend location, news on his exotic cipher quest, as well as a review of all the exotic and legendary gear he’s brought for the weekend of June 24, 2025.
Where is Xur?
This weekend,Destiny 2players can find Xur in the EDZ.
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.
Destiny 2 Class Armor and Exotic Cipher
Xur’s role continues to offer the usual weekly quests, exotics, and legendary gear. Not only are these quests required to purchase a second fated engram, but they’re necessary toacquire legacy exotic gear from the Tower kiosk. Players can earn a new cipher by completing strikes and winning crucible or gambit matches. Gain bonus points for playing with clan mates or finishing more challenging activities.
Xur continues to sell even more gear outside his usual content. In addition to his normal exotic gear, Xur now has Legendary Weapons and Armor for sale in exchange for Legendary Shards and Glimmer.
Karnstein Armlets - Warlock gauntlets
Exotic Perk:
Strong survivability exotic thanks to its ability to life steal, even though players will need to get up close and personal with enemies. The roll on this is pretty solid as well, with a very high recovery, so this may be something worth adding this weekend.
Khepri’s Sting - Hunter gauntlets
The biggest thing going against Khepri’s Sting this week is the disappointing roll, coming in much lower than the other two exotics. As such, it’s not a must-have this week.
Mk. 44 Stand Asides - Titan leg armor
Well, the Stand Asides are back with Xur after being available just recently. In that time, not much has really changes, though all in all, a fairly balanced roll this week, so for those who may have missed it before, these may be a solid pickup.
Stat Values (68 total):
Xur’s Exotic Weapon
The versatile Arbalest linear fusion rifle is on sale this weekend with Xur and, frankly, it’s a weapon that players should have on hand as it’s naturally strong against barrier champions.
A kinetic linear fusion rifle that was introducedduring the Revelry eventin 2019, Arbalest called Compounding Force that makes the weapon fire slugs that cause massive damage to enemies that are protected by an elemental shield. Paired with that is the Legendary trait Disruption Break which temporarily makes enemies more vulnerable to kinetic damage when an elemental shield is broken.
Weapon perks:
Hawkmoon Hand Cannon Perk Rolls
At this point,Xur is only selling Hawkmoon with randomized rolls, but its time is limited once Harbinger is ultimately added to the Exotic Mission Rotator and makes the hand cannon craftable. Either way, here is the roll Xur has this weekend:
