Unlock the Slayer's Fang Shotgun in Destiny 2: A Comprehensive Guide
Destiny 2's latest update introduces exciting new weaponry, including the coveted Slayer's Fang shotgun. This guide details how to acquire this powerful weapon.
Obtaining the Slayer's Fang
The Slayer's Fang is earned by completing the Kell's Fall mission within Destiny 2's Episode Revenant. This mission forms the climactic conclusion of the Episode's three-part storyline. Successful mission completion rewards you with the Slayer's Fang. You can replay Kell's Fall 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 mission objectives are clear and will guide you to the final Kell's Fall encounter.
Upon receiving your initial Slayer's Fang, remember to also acquire the weapon pattern for crafting purposes.
Slayer's Fang Perks
This Exotic shotgun boasts one Intrinsic perk and a unique Trait:
| Perk | Effect |

| Nightsworn Sight (Intrinsic) | Final blows activate Nightsworn Sight. While active, final blows grant Truesight, increased reload speed and precision damage, and submunitions weaken enemies. |
| Heart Piercer (Unique Trait) | Shots fragment into submunitions on impact, highly effective against Overload Champions. |
The Slayer's Fang's unique perk combination makes it a formidable addition to any Guardian's arsenal. Even without pursuing its catalyst, acquiring the base weapon is highly recommended.
