No, Xûr will have many of them in stock.
“Is Xûr the only way to obtain new Exotics?”
No. They’ll drop as part of new loot tables.
“So I have to buy new content to keep up?”
No. All players will have options to progress.
“Is the upgrade automatic?”
No. You’ll choose where you invest the effort.
“Does this make all my gear worthless?”
No! I’ll be holding onto my Dead Orbit Heavy.Scoring Them UpgradesLet’s talk a little bit more about what’s motivating this new economy designed to propel the evolution of your Guardian and the arsenal at your disposal. Here are the facts:
