| ==Biography==
| |
| Xûr first appeared in the Tower after the end of the [[Great Ahamkara Hunt]]. [[Cryptarch]] [[Lavinia Garcia Umr Tawil]] speculated that the Nine had previously made use of the [[Ahamkara]] for their paracausal abilities, and had sent Xûr to interact with the Guardians for similar reasons.<ref>'''Bungie (2019/3/8)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Season of the Drifter]] - [[Lore:Dust|Dust]]: [[Lore:Dust#The Bone|The Bone]]''</ref>
| |
| | |
| Xûr was once confronted by the former Guardian [[Orin]], who was sent by [[Mara Sov]] to investigate the Nine's role in the disappearance of [[Sjur Eido]]. Xûr asked Orin to "forgive [[The Nine|them]]" while she crushed his windpipe and further interrogated him. After being freed from Orin's grasp, he reached into his robes to reveal a silver jar. Misinterpreting Xûr's actions as a sign of hostility, Orin struck the Agent in the chest with her war hammer, sending him flying, and breaking his spine. Xûr survived but acquired a permanently hunched posture due to the blow.<ref name="Debt">'''Bungie (2019/3/8)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Season of the Drifter]] - [[Lore:Ecdysis|Ecdysis]]: [[Lore:Ecdysis#Debt|Debt]]''</ref>
| |
| | |
| It is possible that Xûr, along with [[The Nine]], were responsible for releasing [[Skolas, Kell of Kells|Skolas]] from his prison after he was given to them.<ref>'''Bungie (2015/5/19)''', ''[[Destiny]]: [[House of Wolves (expansion)|House of Wolves]] - [[Grimoire:Allies/Legends & Mysteries|Legends & Mysteries]]: [[Grimoire:Allies/Legends & Mysteries#Mystery: The Fate of Skolas|Mystery: The Fate of Skolas]]''</ref>
| |
| | |
| Most recently, Xûr has been "employed" by [[Starhorse]], a paracausal being appearing as a celestial horse, as the host of the "game show", [[Dares of Eternity]].<ref>'''Bungie (2021/12/7)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[30th Anniversary Pack]]''</ref>

| Before [[Forsaken]], Xûr appeared either in a predefined spot within that week's chosen [[Flashpoint]] [[Destination]], or else in the [[Tower (Destiny 2)|Tower]], if a DLC Destination was selected. Since then, he still appears in one of his predefined spots, which is randomly selected among all base ''[[Destiny 2]]'' [[Destination]]s. As of [[Beyond Light]], this location is limited to the Tower, the [[European Dead Zone]], and [[Nessus]].
| |
| | |
| Instead of [[Strange Coin|Strange Coins]], he accepts [[Legendary Shard|Legendary Shards]]. Each week, his available stock of Exotics is randomized, and includes one random armor piece for each class, a random weapon, a special 'fated' or 'isochronal' exotic engram that is guaranteed to decrypt into an as-yet-undiscovered '''non-quest''' armor ''or'' weapon, and assorted other items. If all suitable exotic armor and weapons have been discovered, a new roll of armor for the player's current class is decrypted instead.
| |
| | |
| In [[Season of the Lost]], Xûr began to offer a selection of Legendary weapons introduced in previous seasons, including older [[Trials of Osiris]] and [[Nightfall]] weapons, in addition to a random set of vaulted armor. As of [[The Witch Queen]], he will also sell one random roll of each of the vaulted exotic weapons that feature them. His entire current inventory can be found [https://www.light.gg/db/vendors/2190858386/x%C3%BBr/ here].
| |
|
| |
|
| In [[The Final Shape]], he accepts Strange Coins again and has a reputation track. Spending Strange Coins increases reputation with Xûr. He also began selling Exotic catalysts for weapons before the release of the Witch Queen expansion and allowing players to obtain a buff called Strange Favor after spending 47 Strange Coins. He has set up a permanent shop inside the Tower Bazaar, so he no longer travels between destinations.

| |
| Upon the release of the ''[[30th Anniversary Pack]]'', Xûr also appears during the whole week as the vendor for [[Dares of Eternity]], located in his [[Xûr's Treasure Hoard|Treasure Hoard]] in [[Unknown Space|Eternity]]. From there, he offers reputation-based rewards, [[Bounties]], and the quest for [[Forerunner]]. He also provides the bonus cosmetic items unlocked for owners of the Anniversary Pack and displays the quest for [[Gjallarhorn]] for non-owners.

| ==Trivia==
| |
| *Xûr is voiced by [[Wikipedia:Fred Tatasciore|Fred Tatasciore]].
| |
| *The Emissary states that Xûr is a prototype.{{Citation needed}}
| |
| *Xûr has sold the famous [[exotic]] [[Rocket Launcher]] [[Gjallarhorn]] on three occasions, twice in Year 1 of [[Destiny]] and once during [[Episode: Revenant]] of [[Destiny 2]]. The first was during the second week he was available to purchase from. However, many people didn't buy it due to either a lack of knowledge or lack of [[Strange Coin]]s.
| |
| *There was once a bug in Xûr's code that caused him to not sell Three of Coins for a few weeks during [[Rise of Iron]].
| |
| *There is a fan theory that Xûr's presence in the [[Tower]] may not be beneficial, despite him outfitting [[Guardian]]s with [[Exotic]] wares. Some fans believe that Xûr is in the [[Tower]] to gather intelligence for his [[The Nine|superiors]].
| |
| *Before ''Destiny 2'' patch 2.0.0, a symbol for Xûr was displayed in the area he was present in. This has now been removed and makes it harder for players to find him.
| |
| *The reason for Xûr's odd posture and voice is explained in the [[Lore:Ecdysis|Ecdysis]] lore book, wherein [[Orin]] finds him in a sublunar cavern and "crushes his windpipe" before hitting him with her war hammer, which warped his spine, so that "he will never stand straight again."<ref name="Debt"/>
| |
| *Xûr received a slight visual update following the release of ''Destiny 2'', with the symbol of [[The Nine]] now visible on the torso of his robes, which are also now less baggy.
