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.

Acquiring the Slayer's Fang

The Slayer's Fang shotgun is earned by completing the Kell's Fall mission in Destiny 2. This mission forms the climactic conclusion of Episode Revenant's third act. Successful mission completion 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 objectives are straightforward, culminating in the Kell's Fall mission.

Remember to also Extract the Pattern for the Slayer's Fang upon your initial acquisition. This allows for crafting later.

Slayer's Fang Perks

The Slayer's Fang boasts one Intrinsic perk and a unique Trait:
