Acquiring the Slayer's Fang Shotgun

The Slayer's Fang is earned by completing the Kell's Fall mission within Destiny 2's Episode Revenant. This mission constitutes the final act of the Episode. 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 quest objectives are clear and will guide you to Kell's Fall.

Remember to also Extract Pattern upon receiving your first Slayer's Fang. This allows for later crafting.

Slayer's Fang Perks

This Exotic shotgun features one Intrinsic perk and one unique Trait:

Perk	Effect
Nightsworn Sight (Intrinsic)	Final blows grant Nightsworn Sight. While active, final blows provide Truesight, increased reload speed and precision damage, and submunitions weaken enemies.
Heart Piercer (Unique Trait)	Shots split into submunitions on impact, highly effective against Overload Champions.

The Slayer's Fang's unique perk combination makes it a standout shotgun in Destiny 2, well worth acquiring, even without pursuing its catalysts.
