Destiny 2's Xur is a vendor of exotic items whose location and inventory change every weekend. Destiny 2 players love their exotic weapons and armour, with many character builds hinging on ensuring you have the right exotic weapon or piece of armour. Xur will sell you all kinds of exotic goods, provided you can pinpoint him on the game's map.

Here is everything you need to know about Xur's location today in Destiny 2, including where he is and what he's selling for May 3 - 7, as we keep grinding out the BRAVE Arsenal thanks to the Into The Light update.

Where is Xur on May 3 - 7?

Xur has three locations where he likes to appear; The Tower Hangar, The Winding Cove in the EDZ, and Watcher's Grave on Nessus. There is no rhyme or reason to the Destiny 2 Xur Location, but rest assured he will be in one of these places every weekend.

As of 6 PM BST/10 AM PDT/1 PM EDT on May 3, Xur can be found in the EDZ.

Will we get a new location for the vendor for The Final Shape? Here's hoping - even if it'll make my job updating this page harder...

What is Xur selling? Xur inventory May 3 - 7

As with each week, Xur has a stock of exotic weapons and armour. Specifically, he has one exotic weapon, and one piece of exotic armour for each class.

If that weapon happens to be on our lists of Destiny 2 best PvE weapons or Destiny 2 best PvP weapons, then you should definitely consider picking it up.

He also consistently sells the Hawkmoon exotic hand cannon. Dead Man's Tale, however, must be earned through the Exotic Mission Rotator found as part of the Destiny 2 Weekly Reset. Look out for when the 'Presage' mission appears.

What is Xur selling this week?

As of 6 PM BST/10 AM PDT/1 PM EDT on May 3, Xur is selling:

  • Prometheus Lens (Exotic Weapon)
  • Lucky Raspberry (Hunter)
  • Dunemarchers (Titan)
  • Getaway Artist (Warlock)

He is also selling Hawkmoon (Surplus).

Warlocks, grab the Getaway Artist this week - 65 stat roll on those. I'd also recommend the other two armour pieces just because there's a 66 and 65 roll for the Lucky Raspberry and the Dunemarchers respectively. Plus, Dunemarchers are fun for punchy Titans, and at the end of the day, aren't all Titans punchy?

Along with the exotic items, Xur always has a stock of legendary items as well. These items are not necessarily as exciting as the exotics, but can be useful for filling out any gaps in your collection.

This week, he is selling:

  • True Prophecy (Hand Cannon)
  • Gridskipper (Pulse Rifle)
  • IKELOS_HC_V1.0.3 (Hand Cannon)
  • Truthteller (Grenade Launcher)
  • Tarnished Mettle (Scout Rifle)
  • Shattered Cipher (Machine Gun)
  • Fire and Forget (Linear Fusion Rifle)

Last week was quiet for Legendaries, but I really like Gridskipper (Moving Target/Snapshot Sights) and Tarnished Mettle (Voltshot/Right Hook). Give 'em a go!

Xur is also selling the Seventh Seraph armour set for all classes if you need it for your collection.
