Unlock the Slayer's Fang Shotgun in Destiny 2: A Comprehensive Guide
Destiny 2's latest update introduces exciting new weaponry, and the Slayer's Fang shotgun is a prime example. This guide details how to acquire this powerful weapon.
The Slayer's Fang shotgun is earned by completing the Kell's Fall mission within Destiny 2. This mission forms the climactic conclusion of Episode Revenant's third act. Successfully finishing the mission rewards you with the Slayer's Fang. You can replay the mission to obtain enhanced versions and experiment with different perk combinations.
For players returning to Destiny 2, locate the Episode Revenant questline via your Director. The objectives are straightforward and will ultimately lead you to Kell's Fall.
Upon receiving your initial Slayer's Fang, remember to also extract its pattern for later crafting.
This Exotic shotgun boasts an Intrinsic perk and a unique Trait:
| Perk | Effect |
|---|---|
| Nightsworn Sight (Intrinsic) | Landing final blows activates Nightsworn Sight. While active, final blows grant Truesight, increase reload speed and precision damage, and weaken targets with submunitions. |
| Heart Piercer (Unique Trait) | Shots fragment into submunitions on impact. Highly effective against Overload Champions. |
These perks combine to create a remarkably potent and engaging shotgun, making it a worthwhile addition to any arsenal, even without pursuing its catalysts.
This concludes our guide on acquiring the Slayer's Fang shotgun in Destiny 2. For further Destiny 2 tips and strategies, including guides on obtaining the Compass Rose and its optimal perks, consult The Escapist.
