The Agent of the Nine is serving up something special this week, Guardians. Xur’s brought not one but two Adept weapons alongside a legitimate god roll Auto Rifle that PvP enthusiasts have been chasing for months. If you’ve been stockpiling Strange Coins waiting for the right moment to spend them, this is your week. Here’s everything you need to know about Xur’s November 21-25 inventory before Tuesday’s reset.
Where to Find Xur This Weekend
As always since The Final Shape expansion, Xur has set up shop in his permanent location at the Tower Bazaar. Fast travel to the Courtyard landing zone, head west into the Bazaar, and take the first right into the narrow alley. You’ll find him waiting at the end, ready to exchange your Strange Coins for some serious firepower.
This Week’s Timeline
| Day | Status | Time (EST) |
|---|---|---|
| Friday, Nov 21 | Xur Arrives | 1:00 PM |
| Saturday-Monday | Full Inventory Available | All Day |
| Tuesday, Nov 25 | Xur Departs | 1:00 PM (Weekly Reset) |
Important: You have until Tuesday’s weekly reset at 1:00 PM EST to purchase this week’s inventory. Miss it, and these specific rolls are gone until Xur decides to bring them back—which could be weeks or months.
The Must-Have Adept Weapons
This week’s standout offerings are two Adept weapons hiding in Xur’s “Strange Gear Offers” tab. Don’t just browse the front page—click that bottom menu option to access the real treasures.
Mirror Imago Adept (SMG) – 41 Strange Coins
The Mirror Imago returns with Target Lock, one of the most reliable damage perks in the current meta. Target Lock progressively increases damage and accuracy as you continuously fire at the same target, making it exceptional for both PvE add-clear and sustained boss damage phases.
Why it matters: Adept weapons come with enhanced stats and the ability to equip Adept mods, which provide additional benefits unavailable to standard versions. Getting an Adept SMG with Target Lock from Xur eliminates the need to grind Trials of Osiris or difficult endgame content.
Wild Style Adept (Grenade Launcher) – 41 Strange Coins
The Wild Style Adept comes packing Enlightened Action and Vorpal Weapon—a combination that specializes in boss damage scenarios. Enlightened Action provides damage bonuses after defeating targets with finishers, while Vorpal Weapon adds a flat 20% damage increase against bosses and vehicles.
Strategic use: This roll shines in content where you can quickly finish weaker enemies before engaging major targets. Gambit, Nightfall Strikes with Champions, and seasonal activities with mini-bosses all become significantly easier with this weapon equipped.
The God Roll Auto Rifle: The Summoner
Buried among Xur’s Legendary offerings sits The Summoner Auto Rifle with an absolutely premium roll: Heal Clip and Kill Clip. This combination is devastatingly effective in PvP and surprisingly versatile in PvE content.
The Summoner Breakdown
| Weapon Type | Element | Key Perks | Cost |
|---|---|---|---|
| Auto Rifle | Solar | Heal Clip + Kill Clip | 17 Strange Coins |
Heal Clip reloads your weapon and provides instant health regeneration after defeating targets. Kill Clip increases damage by 33% for a short duration after reloading following a kill. Together, they create a self-sustaining combat loop: get a kill, reload, gain health, deal increased damage, repeat.
In Crucible matches, this lets you chain kills while staying alive longer than opponents expect. In PvE, it provides survivability during overwhelming encounters where healing might otherwise be scarce.
How to Afford Everything This Week
If you’re short on Strange Coins, don’t panic. Here’s the fastest way to farm the currency before Xur leaves:
Priority farming methods:
- Complete Vanguard Ops, Crucible matches, or Gambit rounds (4 coins per activity with Strange Favor active)
- Check your Season Pass for free Strange Coin rewards
- Run Onslaught activities for consistent coin drops
- Purchase Strange Favor buff from Xur after spending 47 coins (increases coin drop rates)
The total cost for all three featured weapons is 99 Strange Coins—steep but manageable if you focus your playtime on ritual activities over the weekend.
Other Notable Purchases
Beyond the featured weapons, Xur’s Strange Offers tab includes several items worth considering:
Deepstone Harmonizer – This legacy item remains one of the best purchases for new players building their collection. If you missed it during the Deep Stone Crypt era, grab it now.
Xurfboard – Xur’s exotic skimmer is purely cosmetic but highly collectible. If you enjoy customizing your Guardian’s appearance and movement style, it’s worth the investment.
Exotic Class Items – Each class has access to unique Exotic Class Items this week. These provide powerful ability synergies and are essential for min-maxing endgame builds.
Why This Week Matters
Xur’s inventory rotates randomly, meaning you cannot predict when specific god rolls or Adept weapons will return. The combination of two Adept weapons plus a legitimate god roll Legendary is rare enough that veteran players are recommending this week as a “must-visit” event.

Pro Tips for First-Time Xur Shoppers
If this is your first serious interaction with Xur, keep these fundamentals in mind:
- Always check the “Strange Gear Offers” tab—the best items are often hidden there

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What’s the difference between Adept weapons and regular versions?
Q: Can I purchase items from Xur on multiple characters?
Yes, Xur’s inventory is account-wide and accessible across all your Guardian characters. However, you can only purchase each specific item once per account during his weekly visit. For example, you can’t buy the Mirror Imago Adept on your Titan and then purchase a second copy on your Warlock. Your Strange Coin balance is also shared across all characters, so strategize your purchases based on your total available currency rather than per-character availability.
