‘Destiny’: Xur’s Exotic Goods For August 26, Universal Remote Tunes In
Xûr has only four more stops in the Tower before Destiny: Rise of Iron drop on September 20. The mysterious vendor’s visit to the Tower this weekend brings the Universal Remote to play with along with some decent Exotic Armor pieces for PlayStation and Xbox players seeking to complete their collections.
This weekend, Xûr can be found across from the Speaker in the Tower North. Simply head to the left when you first spawn in the Tower, and you’ll find him standing in front of a large, round door across from the speaker’s entrance. Here’s where you can find him on the Tower map.

Universal Remote

Empyrean Bellicose

The random perk rolls give “Inverse Shadow” and “Heavy Lifting” in the third column for more Super Energy from minion kills and Heavy Weapon kills against minions. “Infusion” is the final column perk to replenish health each time an Orb of Light is picked up.
The evenly split 48 Intellect /48 Discipline stat roll is solid and the perk roll is excellent as well. Destiny players will want to stand pat with this helmet.
Graviton Forfeit

The optional perks include “Inverse Shadow” for bonus Super energy from all PVE kills and “Heavy Lifting” for bonus Super energy from Heavy Weapon kills. “Better Already” sits in the final colum to provide immediate shield recovery from picking up Orbs of Light.
This is a solid pickup for PVE and PVP encounter, and the 47 Intellect / 46 Discipline stat roll is decent enough. Not much need to re-roll with this combination of perks.
Nothing Manacles

The 41 Discipline / 45 Strength roll is decidedly average for these gauntlets. The optional perks of “Energy Projection” and “Momentum Transfer” are fine, but consider re-rolling to shoot for more Discipline to maximize grenade usage with this Exotic piece.
