Xur has to go
If Xur is selling something that I need or something that I would like to have, I would buy it. Just now I bought the Warlock chest, but I would still prefer if he didn't sell this stuff in the first place. Xur defeats the purpose of RNG and even though you do not earn anything in RNG because it is random, things like Xur destroy that "feeling" you have when you are fairly rewarded.
This morning I saw Xur is selling the Bones of Eao. I got those boots after having the toughest Skola match I have ever had (it was my first Skolas fight without the burns and my third time overall, so I still didn't know the "right" strategy and having lightswitch on made things worse). They were actually the armor piece I was hoping to get, and it felt so good seeing them after I opened the chest. I got those boots because I beat Skolas and opened the chest. Now people will get them because they did some weekly strike. This is not right. Yes, I do agree that people who deserve to have them (and other items like the Gjallarhorn) should have them, but now people who haven't even done Skolas are going to get them. This is what bothers me. Xur has to go. The Gunsmith can sell the heavy ammo synthesis for the same price during weekends. Remove Xur or have him sell stuff that do not drop in Nightfalls or end game activities.

If I am being 100% honest I think Xur does need to be there. But I think either his costs need to increase or the rarity of strange coins needs to increase. I do believe that exotics should be super rare and really hard to find. Having an exotic should be something special, and to be honest there are legendaries out there that are more coveted and harder to get because of how easy it is to find exotics. A piece of armor costs 13 strange coins, but any user with 3 characters is guaranteed 27 a week. How is that hard to get? His inventory should be expensive enough that you have to be selective with what you buy from him.
