Destiny 2 Xur Exotics – Monte Carlo, Knucklehead Radar, Winter’s Guile

Basic armor choices abound but there's a decent primary weapon at least.

Xur is back in Bungie’s Destiny 2, hanging out in the Tower behind Dead Orbit. He’ll be around until tomorrow’s weekly reset so there’s no time to lose. This week’s Exotic wares are fairly standard, save for the weapon – Monte Carlo.

As a primary Exotic auto rifle, dealing damage with Monte Carlo will reduce one’s melee cooldown (with kills having a chance to fully recharge melee abilities). Damage increases as you chain together kills with melee kills granting ammo. While not the most top-tier pick, it’s still a very solid auto rifle for 29 Legendary Shards.

Exotic armor this week includes Knucklehead Radar (Hunter helm), Synthoceps (Titan gloves) and Winter’s Guile (Warlock gloves), each for 23 Legendary Shards. Each of these is fairly standard – Knucklehead Radar provides radar while aiming down sights, Synthoceps increases melee lunge range and damage when surrounded, and Winter’s Guile stacks melee damage with each melee kill. Unless you lack any of these Exotics, they can be safely skipped.
