Take a look at the new Exotics Xur will bring to Destiny with The Taken King

Sleeper Simulant (Heavy Fusion Rifle)

"Sleeper Simulant: a Fusion Rifle equipped in your Heavy Weapon slot. This weapon's laser tears through enemies and ricochets on hard surfaces."

Sealed Ahamkara Grasps (Exotic Hunter Gauntlets)

"Hunters: these Sealed Ahamkara Grasps are filled with Nightmare Fuel. They will provide you with an additional melee charge and your melee damage will have a chance to reload your Primary Weapon."

Alchemist’s Raiment (Exotic Warlock Chest)

"Warlocks: reshape the world and turn iron to gold with the Alchemist's Raiment. Collecting Primary Ammo will give you a chance to gain glimmer. Orbs collected when your Super is full recharge your grenades and melee."

Telesto (Exotic Fusion Rifle)

"An end will come, Guardian. Bring it about sooner with Telesto, a vestige of the Queen's Harbringers. This Fusion Rifle will attach projectiles to your foes and detonate with a delayed Void blast. Multikills with this weapon will drop Orbs for your allies."

The Chaperone (Exotic Shotgun)

"The Chaperone Exotic shotgun fires a single slug shot and grants an Agility boost when equipped. Your precision kills will grant a brief increase to Handling, Range, Rate of Fire, and Stability."

As we’ve already seen, Bungie has big plans for Year Two of Destiny. I’m not just talking about gameplay changes and improvements either. Xur, Destiny’s mysterious vendor who shows up every weekend with a fresh batch of Exotic gear for you to purchase, promises to bring all new goodies when The Taken King arrives in September. And yesterday, Bungie gave us a sneak peek at some of the Exotic gear he will be bringing. Take a look at some of the new gear coming and make note of the Sleeper Simulant, which is part of Destiny’s new Heavy Fusion weapon class.

Note that these are just a few of the new Exotics coming to Destiny with The Taken King. Tune in to Bungie's livestream today as they take us aboard the Dreadnaught and possibly reveal more surprises.

Empyrean Bellicose (Exotic Titan Helmet)

“Titans: fly like the shadows with the Empyrean Bellicose. Aiming your weapons while in the air will hold you in place for a short time. Orbs collected when your Super is full will recharge your melee ability”
