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 three-act storyline. Successfully finishing Kell's Fall rewards you with the Slayer's Fang. You can replay the mission to obtain additional upgrades 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 ultimately lead you to Kell's Fall.
Upon receiving your initial Slayer's Fang, remember to also acquire the weapon pattern to enable crafting later.
This Exotic shotgun boasts an Intrinsic perk and a unique Trait:
| Perk | Effect |
|---|---|
| Nightsworn Sight (Intrinsic) | Landing final blows grants Nightsworn Sight. While active, final blows provide Truesight, increased reload speed, enhanced precision damage, and submunitions that weaken enemies. |
| Heart Piercer (Unique Trait) | Shots fragment into submunitions on impact, proving highly effective against Overload Champions. |
These perks combine to create a remarkably potent and unique shotgun, making it a valuable addition to any Destiny 2 arsenal. Even without pursuing catalysts, obtaining the base weapon is highly recommended.
This concludes our guide on acquiring the Slayer's Fang shotgun. For more Destiny 2 tips and strategies, including information on obtaining the Compass Rose and its optimal perk combinations, be sure to check out The Escapist.
