"Destiny": Xur"s Exotic Goods For Sept. 16, Tarantella Makes First Appearance

Destiny: XUR PRESENTA - Xur ANNO 3 + COME OTTENERE ACULEO Anno 3 ( #Destiny #Xur )

The final visit by Xr before the launch of Destiny: Rise of the King brings an Exotic piece of armor that has yet to be sold during Year Two. The ATS/8 Tarantella makes its first appearance for PlayStation and Xbox players and is joined by the Plan C.

This weekend, Xr can be found across from the Speaker in the Tower North. Simply head to the left when you first spawn in the Tower, and youll find him standing in front of a large, round door across from the speakers entrance. Heres where you can find him on the Tower map.

For those wondering what to get, here are a few helpful hints.

Plan C[Image via Destiny]

Plan C is one of the better Fusion Rifles in the game due to its stability and quick charge time. Its a gimme during activities with Arc Burn active and is an excellent option in the Crucible. Its perks include bonus accuracy to hip fire, reduced charge time, and fast equip/charge time after swapping weapons.

No Backup Plans[Image via Bungie]

No Backup Plans has received a nice upgrade for Year Two, but its still a purely personal defense armor piece. The Force Multiplier perk is the signature item on the Gauntlets and triggers the Force Barrier with Shotgun kills, and the overshields duration is increased. This turns Defenders into a more aggressive sub-class in PVP and increases survivability in tight PVE encounters.

The optional Perks include Rain Blows and Impact Induction for a choice between faster melee speed or bonus grenade energy on melee hits. Theres also a choice between faster Shotgun or Rocket Launcher reloads.

The put 65 Strength stat roll is very average for No Backup Plans. Consider re-rolling to shoot for a higher pure Strength stat or a balanced split stat roll if needed.

ATS/8 Tarantella

The ATS/8 Tarantella is for Hunter Bladedancers in Destiny. The namesake intrinsic perk provides reduces Arc damage from PVE enemies plus Arc Grenades and Arc Blade recharge faster. A great piece for Bladedancers, especially with the buffs they received in the 2.4.0 update. Meanwhile, it also comes with perks to carry more Auto Rifle or Fusion Rifle ammo plus either more defense against Arc Burn or increased armor when playing Bladedancer.

The split 65 Intellect and 62 Discipline stat roll is okay for this piece. There isnt much flexibility with changing this piece via Glass Needles, so only consider re-rolling for different ammo bonuses.

Heart of the Praxic Fire[Image via Destiny]

Heart of the Praxic Fire is to Sunsinger Warlocks what Obsidian Mind is to Voidwalker Warlocks. Its Praise the Sun perk decreases all cooldowns while the Radiance Super is active. This turns Sunbros into grenade-chucking and orb-generating machines. It also comes with perks to carry more Pulse Rifle or Sidearm ammo. It also has the option for better Solar Burn Defense or increased Solar Armor as a Sunsinger.

The 64 Intellect / 64 Discipline stat roll is solid for this chest armor. Not much reason to re-roll unless you want different ammo bonuses.
