Xur is selling a pretty special Taken King primary auto rifle this weekend. Is it any good?
Zhalo Supercell is the primary auto rifle Xur will sell you this week for 23 Strange Coins. Zhalo is among the Exotic weapons that launched with The Taken King expansion, but it’s not just any primary.
The question remains, is it worth your time and money? The answer is an absolute yes!
Zhalo Supercell is among the few Exotics with elemental properties. In fact, it’s the only primary with elemental powers right now. In PvE, Its Arc chains nearby enemies together, doing great damage. This works very well when you’re against large groups of enemies, not mention whenever Arc burn is active on Nightfalls.
Getting double kills with this weapon (something you’ll do plenty of), recharges your Super energy by a small amount every time you do so, thanks to the Bolts from the Blue perk.
In PvP it’s not as great, so don’t be thinking you’ll be wrecking fools in Trials of Osiris with it. It’s pretty fun to use, and among the most interesting-looking weapons in the game.
It’s still recommended, however, even more so because designer Luke Smith confirmed that you won’t be seeing any more primaries with elemental damage, because they made their kinetic counterparts seem inferior.
