Destiny 2 Invitations of the Nine Guide: Hi, Xur!

The Destiny 2 Invitations of the Nine quest is available, and we’ve all you need to know in order to get through the nine-week quest. Hope you’ve got some time on your hands.

If you’re unfamiliar with how the quest works, it’s pretty simple — you’ll need to go and meet Xur, Agent of the Nine, when he appears inside Destiny 2. For us Aussies, that’s from 3.00 am AEST on Saturday until sometime on Monday. Xur’s location changes, so we’ll try to keep you updated week-to-week.

  • Xur’s current location: Winding Cove, the EDZ (27 May 2019)

You’ll need to find Xur each week and buy an Invitation to complete and further the quest line. Each week’s quest will cost nine Legendary Shards. Thankfully, you can complete the week’s invitation at your leisure; you’re not forced to get this done in nine weeks straight. That’s said, if you want a new invitation week-to-week, you’ll need to complete your tasks ahead of the weekly reset, 3.00 am AEST Wednesday here in Australia.
