The Slayer’s Fang is an Exotic shotgun that boasts one Intrinsic perk and one unique Trait, enhancing its versatility and effectiveness in combat:
Perk | Effect |
---|---|
Nightsworn Sight (Intrinsic) | Dealing final blows to targets grants Nightsworn Sight. During this period, final blows provide Truesight, increase reload speed and precision damage, and submunitions weaken targets. |
Heart Piercer (Unique Trait) | Rounds shatter into submunitions on impact, making it particularly effective against Overload Champions. |
These perks make the Slayer’s Fang one of the most intriguing and potent shotguns introduced in *Destiny 2* recently. It's certainly worth acquiring at least the base version, even if you're not immediately aiming for its catalysts.
