For those don't know, Xur is an agent of the Nine and a traveling merchant who shows up every weekend at a different location, on a different planet, with a handful of new, Exotic gear. Typically, four items are available to players every weekend, and all the times can be purchased using only Legendary Shards. And this weekend marks the first Xur sale since the game's first expansion, Curse of Osiris , released, which means gear should be higher level than usual.
