Xur today is a big one for those looking to maintain interest in anything beyond the Destiny 2 Xur location. That’s because the Xur inventory has been looking a little threadbare recently so, while we’ll look at where Xur is today, we’ll also be keeping a beady eye on whether he’s selling Forsaken Exotics. Plus, for those of you in the UK, you’ll want to pay particularly close attention to the new Xur start time this week as his arrival has been adjusted thanks to Daylight Savings. It’s all covered down below in our guide for Xur today, April 5.
Destiny 2 Xur Location | Where is Xur Today? (April 5)
Xur today can only be found in one of five locations and, with the Tower being covered last week, he’s traveled somewhere new. This week the Destiny 2 Xur location is Titan, near the Rig landing zone.
Destiny 2 Xur Start Time | When Does Xur Arrive Today? (April 5)
If you’re in the US, the Xur start time is the same as normal this week, with the merchant arriving at 11 AM Pacific and 1 PM Eastern. However, those in the UK, and other countries who underwent Daylight Savings across the weekend, will have their normal start time shifted forward an hour. So, in the UK that’s 6 PM BST.
Destiny 2 Xur Inventory – What is Xur Selling Today? (April 5)
While Xur didn’t provide the goods with any Forsaken Exotics last week, here’s what the Xur inventory has in store for you this week.
- Leg (Titan): Antaeus Wards (23 Legendary Shards)
- Chest (Hunter): Gwisin Vest (23 Legendary Shards)
- Gauntlets (Warlock): Winter’s Guile (23 Legendary Shards)
- Weapon: D.A.R.C.I. Sniper Rifle (29 Legendary Shards)
As ever, Xur is also packing an Isochronal Engram for an eye-watering 97 Legendary Shards. That gifts you a Year One Exotic that you’ve never received before. Also, parting with nine Legendary Shards will net you the fourth Invitation of the Nine this week, which is well worth a shot.
Destiny's 10 Most Exotic Weapons

Destiny's 10 Most Exotic Weapons
One of the main draws of Destiny is the guns. This is a loot shooter through and through, and Bungie has crafted a huge arsenal of interesting firearms to go after. While there are many standard weapons, a handful of rare selections really push the envelope. Here are Destiny's 10 most exotic weapons. -
Bad Juju
A fantastic Pulse Rifle, Bad Juju's main aesthetic is death. That skeletal spine and skull hood ornament really make it stand out from the crowd. The gun also rewards successive kills, so you can feed it more death and charge your super move at the same time. -
Fighting Lion
A sterling silver grenade launcher, the Fighting Lion's magnificent big cat finish is just the most obvious of its advantages. It's got all the buffs you'd want from a noob tube and it blasts apart shields on direct hits. Certainly, a great option if you're looking to shake things up. -
Gjallarhorn
A legend among legends, Gjallarhorn was the exotic to grab during both its reigns over Destiny's meta. It's a flaming rocket launcher with a huge silver eagle etched onto the top. The rockets it fires can be upgraded to split into tracking "wolfpack" rounds, meaning that no one is running away. -
Sleeper Simulant
When you say the words Fusion Rifle, you think of something that looks like the Sleeper Simulant. The prototype rail gun look is definitely in. The lasers it fires goes straight through enemies and also ricochets off walls. It's an easy way to score a triple kill if you're good with your aim. -
Telesto
Do you want a fusion rifle that shoots black holes? Or "void blasts" as the Destiny people might say? Telesto is your gun. While it looks like a random configuration from Borderlands' weapon generator, its large range and ability to reload your spare guns make it a great choice in the field. -
The Wardcliff Coil
OK, we may have said that Sleeper Simulant looked like a prototype, but this Wardcliff Coil looks like a prototype of that prototype. It's as if someone tore parts off of a passing space station and then used a genie to wish them into a gun. What a cool look. -
Touch Of Malice
With the Touch Of Malice, you can't help but feel Bungie reaching back into its past. Sure, this exotic scout rifle doesn't fire grenades, but it sure does look a whole lot like the Brute Shot. It's got that weird side handle and the underslung blade. Either way, a great design. -
Trinity Ghoul
One of two bows introduced in the latest Destiny 2 expansion, the Trinity Ghoul proves that Bungie is more than happy to break the rules of its own FPS. Sure, you'd probably rather have a minigun, but maybe some snipers might enjoy going back to basics with this most historic of weapons. -
Two-Tailed Fox
The Two-Tailed Fox is enormous. A huge colorful rocket launcher, it fires two distinct projectiles, each with a different payload. One fires void, the black hole juice we mentioned earlier. The other fires Solar, which involves burning your target. Combined, it's just not a very good time for whoever's on the receiving end. -
Worldline Zero
Much like the Bows introduced in Forsaken, the original Destiny had a whole class of weapon that didn't involve bullets and ammo. They were swords, and there are now quite a few blades to choose from. Perhaps the Crucible could use a Medieval Mode now that both are in the game.
