Acquiring the Slayer's Fang Shotgun

The Slayer's Fang is earned by completing the Kell's Fall mission within Destiny 2. This mission forms the climactic conclusion of Episode Revenant's third act. Successful mission completion rewards you with the Slayer's Fang. The mission can be replayed to obtain enhanced versions and experiment with different perk combinations.

For players returning to Destiny 2, locate the Episode Revenant questline through your Director. The quest objectives are clearly defined and will guide you to Kell's Fall.

Upon receiving your initial Slayer's Fang, remember to also extract its pattern to enable future crafting.

Slayer's Fang Perks

This Exotic shotgun boasts one intrinsic perk and a unique trait:

The Slayer's Fang's unique perk combination makes it a standout shotgun in Destiny 2. Even without pursuing its catalyst, acquiring the base weapon is highly recommended.
