Xûr, Agent of the Nine

Xûr, Agent of the Nine is an individual within the Tower. Xûr sells extremely rare goods in exchange for Strange Coins and only appears on weekends. Xur's coming and going depends on the planetary alignments, as he hails from the Jovians, a part of the system that the Guardians have yet to adequately explore. He works for the rulers of the Jovians, the Nine.

Xûr can be found in a number of places; the Hall of Guardians, near Arcite 99-40, or in the North Tower, in front of the wooden doors. He can also be found in the Ship Wright area of The Tower near Dead Orbit Vendors. He typically sells an exotic piece of armor for 13 strange coins, and sells exotic primary weapons for 23 strange coins and secondaries for 17, an exotic engram for 23 Motes of Light, consumables for one strange coin, and vehicle upgrades for 23 strange coins and finally an exotic shard for 7 strange coins. Also once in awhile he will offer 5 heavy ammo synthesis for 1 strange coin.

Xûr will also upgrade existing exotic gear for the price of one exotic shard and some glimmer, provided the item is available that week. Xûr also sells some items needed for exotic bounties for one strange coin.
