Destiny 2: Xur Exotic Armor, Weapon, and Recommendations for June 17

gamerant.com:

In the middle of week 4, it seems that most Destiny 2 players have settled into a normal rhythm for grinding the gear they're looking for. Thankfully, the current Season of the Haunted has introduced plenty of new legendary weapons that can not only be farmed, but crafted once the Deepsight patterns have been extracted. Fan favorite weapons like the Austringer hand cannon and Beloved sniper rifle are also making a big comeback, especially with some of the perks that can be associated with them.

Alongside the Solar 3.0 subclass overhauls, players are still discovering optimal builds and loadouts, especially when attempting to synergize with certain exotics. Unfortunately for Hunters, controversy erupted earlier this month when Bungie made a change to the Caliban's Hand Exotic gauntlets text description, rather than changing the item's behavior to match the original description like many fans were hoping.

What We Hope to See Out of Destiny 2's Arc 3.0

For now, the weekend merchant Xur is back again in Destiny 2. Follow this guide for his most 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 17, 2022.

This weekend, players can find Xur on Nessus, hanging out on his usual massive tree branch.

From the Director, head to Nessus and load into Watcher's Grave. Run towards the back of the zone where a massive tree is found. Jump up until players find the huge branch where the merchant is hanging out.​​​​​​​

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 to acquire legacy exotic gear from the Tower kiosk.
