Xur’s God Roll Exotic in Destiny 2 Enhances Outbreak Perfected

On November 29, Xur returned to the Tower in Destiny 2, bringing with him a selection of items that Warlocks should eagerly acquire. His weekly visit offers players a chance to access valuable Exotic gear, and this time, the standout item for Warlock players is the Chromatic Fire.

Xur presents a randomized piece of Exotic armor for each class, but the Chromatic Fire is particularly notable for its strategic value in the current game meta. This impressive armor piece boasts a total stat score of 69, approaching the rare maximum, and features a favorable distribution of stats. Presently, the meta favors resilience over mobility, making Chromatic Fire an appealing addition to your arsenal.

With minimal points allocated to redundant stats—though it does fall short in Discipline—this Exotic armor’s price of 41 Strange Coins is a reasonable investment, especially considering the versatile builds it facilitates.

Xur’s impressive roll of Chromatic Fire is available for purchase until December 3.

Meta Insights

The Chromatic Fire is a non-subclass-specific Exotic armor piece that can be optimized for any elemental type. However, it shines brightest when paired with the Solar subclass, as it maximizes the chest armor’s Exotic Perk by utilizing the powerful Scorch effect in PvE scenarios.

Typically, the damage-over-time effect associated with Scorch is limited to weapons displaying the Incandescent perk, which ignites enemies upon reaching a certain number of Scorch stacks. In contrast, the Chromatic Fire allows you to apply the Incandescent effect to any Kinetic Primary weapon of your choice, provided you wield a Solar Super—this includes Exotic weapons as well.

So, which primary weapon should you consider pairing with this effect? Personal preference will surely play a role, but two top-tier choices that synergize well with Scorch are Outbreak Perfected and Khvostov 7G-0X. Both weapons excel in dealing damage per second (DPS), and combining them with Scorch enhances their lethal potential.

Remember, you have until December 3 to pick up this exceptional roll from Xur. If you’re short on Strange Coins, don’t worry—we’ve compiled the fastest methods to farm this special currency.
