Obtaining the Slayer's Fang Shotgun
The Slayer's Fang shotgun is earned by completing the Kell's Fall mission in Destiny 2. This mission forms the climactic conclusion of Episode Revenant's third act.

For players returning to Destiny 2, locate the Episode Revenant questline through your Director. The objectives are straightforward, ultimately leading to Kell's Fall.
Upon receiving your initial Slayer's Fang, remember to also acquire the Extract Pattern. This allows for later crafting of the weapon.
