Obtaining the Slayer's Fang Shotgun

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 enhanced versions and experiment with different perk combinations.

For players returning to Destiny 2, locate and initiate the Episode Revenant questline via your Director. The objectives are clear and will guide you to Kell's Fall.

Remember to also acquire the weapon pattern upon your initial Slayer's Fang acquisition. This allows for future crafting.
