Update: Xur has departed for this weekend. Here's where you can find him and what he's selling for the weekend of April 29-May 3.
The weekend is here in Destiny 2 and with it comes the return of Xur, the snake-faced salesman of Exotic and Legendary weapons and armor. After spending a long time dealing with a bug infestation, Xur's inventory is finally functioning as advertised, with solid stat rolls on Exotic and Legendary armor that are exactly what you see before you purchase. Grab yourself something great to take on the Trials of Osiris, which returns this weekend as well. Here's where you can find Xur this weekend and all the stuff you can buy from him.
Head to the Winding Cove area of the EDZ to find Xur this week. For his weapon, Xur is offering Prometheus Lens. Hunters can pick up The Bombardiers leg armor; Titans can grab the Armamentarium chest armor; and for Warlocks, Xur has the Getaway Artist gauntlets.
Xur's armor is finally fixed this week, meaning you'll get exactly the Exotics and Legendary gear he advertises.
Xur is present every weekend in Destiny 2, starting with the daily reset at 10 AM PT / 1 PM ET each Friday. His exact location is always a mystery when he first arrives, as he is not listed on the map, and for novice players, he can be easy to miss. However, there are a set number of locations where he takes up residence, including the Tower Hangar area, on Nessus in Watcher's Grave, and in the Winding Cove area of the EDZ.

That means it's worth visiting him each time to check out his new weapons and rolls on Exotic and Legendary armor. You can visit him any time between his arrival Friday and the weekly reset at 10 AM PT / 1 PM ET the following Tuesday when Xur departs the Solar System.
Xur's Hawkmoon is another great one for the Crucible thanks to Quickdraw and perks that play into stability, helping you hit what you're aiming at. As for Dead Man's Tale, it packs Fourth Time's the Charm, which rewards precision hits and is strong for both PvP and PvE--although in the Crucible, Vorpal Weapon tends to be the king for this gun.
For Legendary guns, Xur's Ikelos_SMG_v1.0.2 submachine gun is near the god roll for the Crucible, with Dynamic Sway Reduction and Tap the Trigger making it extremely stable so you can dump ammo on opponents, and a Handling Masterwork. The Iota Draconis fusion rifle is also a good contender for tearing into enemies in the Crucible, with Under Pressure and High-Impact Reserves boosting its damage, components that boost range, and a Charge Time Masterwork that can help mitigate its slow firing speed. Meanwhile, the Frozen Orbit sniper rifle Xur offers is always fun in PvP with the Vorpal Weapon perk, and plays well in PvE, specifically for taking down tougher enemies since Genesis refunds ammo for breaking shields. The Range Masterwork helps you stay out of harm's way.
The Lightkin set from the Season of the Splicer is Xur's Legendary armor this week. The crop is pretty weak; Titans have only a helmet and leg armor worth considering at 62 and 63 total stats, respectively, although the leg armor's high Resilience is notable. Hunters get gauntlets at 61 and pretty much nothing else, unless you need a high-Resilience but otherwise low helmet. Warlocks have only leg armor, coming in with high Resilience at 62.
