Acquiring the Slayer's Fang Shotgun
The Slayer's Fang shotgun is earned by completing the Kell's Fall mission within Destiny 2's Episode Revenant. This mission concludes the episode's final act. Successful 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 the Director. The mission objectives are straightforward and lead directly to Kell's Fall.
Upon receiving your initial Slayer's Fang, remember to also extract its pattern to enable future crafting.

| Heart Piercer (Unique Trait) | Shots split into submunitions on impact, highly effective against Overload Champions. |
These perks make the Slayer's Fang a compelling and potent addition to any Destiny 2 arsenal. Acquiring at least the base version is recommended, even without immediate plans for catalyst pursuit.
