Why does Xur's inventory consistently feel underwhelming..? Each week I find Xur to check out his inventory and each week I'm unimpressed by the lack of variety in armor stats across exotic and legendary armor pieces. Even when looking at his weapon selection from week to week all I see are depressingly useless rolls of weapons I'd like to have nice rolls of. I think Xur definitely deserves an inventory overhaul. Allow players to re-roll his weapons or purchase deepsights for them, even if it is for a higher price. Maybe give players the opportunity to hand-pick their stat spreads on armor pieces but require a higher cost for higher stats, similar to the way the weapon crafting system works. My hope here is to make Xur more interesting because he deserves to be more than just a vendor to buy one exotic engram from to spend my last few legendary shards before TFS launches.

That's what happens when exotics drop from nothing. They need to make exotics rare again, we need another og gjallarhorn era

At this point I feel like he's a catch up mechanic for new lights rather than an NPC geared toward endgame. I'm fine with that personally, but I wouldn't complain if he were made to be better

He's been underwhelming for all of D2 tbh, we went from being able to buy exotics with our resources to having years worth of resources (at this point) and nothing to buy. I'm still kinda salty they never let us do anything with our legendary shards. I have 60k and they've always been worthless except for whenever they made the focusing costs ridiculously high to the point that only us hoarders could do anything Just let me buy exotics man...

He’s for new lights for sure. It definitely feels sad though - I remember the early D1 days where every week it was exciting to see what he had. Maybe it’s the same for new lights now?

I’m pretty sure Xur is used for new players or exotic stat grabs so you dont use shitty collection ones. If you have been playing for a long time Xur isnt really needed lol
