Found this link in another thread; Deej explaining that Xur is not RNG.
[b]Deej: "it's not random, there is a plan. But every time I ask the guys who know what Xur is selling.. *paraphrased: they ask is it with your community manager head on or your warlock head on*?"[/b]
Apologies to the OP of this link, I've lost your thread and I don't know your name. Just don't want this link & your thread to get lost in the masses of Destiny topics. Shout up if you see this and I'll link your thread in.
Edit: Link to OP of this finding:

Edit 2: Just to clarify as some think is a stupid revelation; I've always believed Xur was RNG but this is evidence of such.

4 RespuestasThis is from Deej. You can look it up on his recent comments [quote]Hey, there. Let me attempt to clear some things up here. Xur is randomized. There are times when we can pull off miracles like making him stay in the Tower longer when Christmas is cancelled, but his inventory is governed by the same chaos that influences all the loot drops. Comments in that video about "the plan" were more about the fact that we know what he's selling before he appears, even if we can't reach out and stock his shelves ourselves. We set him in motion, and his will is not his own. Also in that video, you can hear me confessing that I'm not always in the loop when it comes to these things, so you should take pre-game lobby comments among friends with a grain of salt. That video was from months ago, and I was still learning the intricacies of all the new systems that we launched with the game. These conspiracy theories are symptoms of a burning desire. Gjallarhorn is the most popular ask that comes my way. I know you want it, even more than the collective requests for more vault space. As you can see, these are things that are beyond my control. I don't have one either. I'll do my best to talk to the people who create the code that drives Xur, and see if we can make him more valuable to you in the future.[/quote]

2 RespuestasHow did they get those emblems?
-
There is no way he's RNG multiple people have ran tests using solid concrete math proof and none of the times or at least not as much as right now, has the same shit rolled multiple weeks in a row!
-
2 RespuestasWhats rng?
-
If so, then Xur will be selling the Ghorn
-
and neither is this! AGREE 100% http://www.techtimes.com/articles/28788/20150126/second-destiny-expansion-will-fix-the-mistakes-of-the-dark-below.htm

8 RespuestasEditado por Seven: 2/1/2015 9:00:01 PM[b]not op[/b] RNG CAN BE WEIGHTED. IT IS LIKELY A SMALL GAME MECHANIC's TEAM THAT DECIDES HOW TO WEIGHT ITEMS. that means yes, every week they can they can weight the chances of rng selecting guns with wolfs on them to infinitesimal percentile s.

1 RespuestaWell a surprise.... (Warning the amount of Sarcasm in the previous statement has reached dangerous levels..) So I guess the plan is for Warlocks To get shafted every god damned week and for the shittiest of shut exotics to flood the market so that I have to strike with a bunch of ass hats desperately trying to level their No land beyond and Dragons Breaths... -blam!- this game... I'll go back to Saints Row where I can at least have some free roaming and fun.
-
4 RespuestasI think letting Xur sell exotics is a bad thing in the first place. Let exotics be a reward for achieving something great.
-
Deej may be trolling though...
-
1 RespuestaI realized it wasn't random when xur sold IB after a bunch of people said they wanted it and DeeJ said "Enjoy your Ice Breaking"
-
3 RespuestasObviously Xûr isn't RNG. What was your guys first clue.
-

I'm surprised someone working at Bungie doesn't have all the awesome gear but instead a lvl 24 warlock :p

2 RespuestasIts very irritating that Warlocks get the same thing four weeks in a row while Titans have had a shot at buying at least every exotic Armour piece at some point. Xur simply needs to sell 2 items e.g Praxis and Acrachnid already. Armour wont break any balancing so I don't see the issue. Also roll overs are frustrating certain items have only appeared once forcing a lot of people unable to use certain exotics at the high level
-
10 RespuestasSo, why did they sell the same exotic over and over again?
-
-
Sounds like deej is a dickhead
-
-
4 RespuestasWell, I thought it was kind of obvious that xur wansn't RNG. If he was random, then why would he sell the same stuff twice sometimes? On Christmas they should have done a community vote on any exotic for xur to sell. Instead, they made him sell the No Land Beyond, LOL. That's bungie's way of saying Marry Christmas.
-
4 RespuestasSo xur isn't random well done.... "They have a plan" for xur Guess what plans change
-
So whining bitches are plan changers I guess...Figures!
-
10 RespuestasNo shit snowflake Where have you been? We all have known this for a very long time
-
Geez this is funny as hell when he says "Well can you tell me to put me at ease?" And then they say "No. Shut up."
-
finally! now people can stop making stupid arguments about how it's random
