Fatebringer

"Delivering the inevitable, one pull at a time."

- In-game description

Fatebringer is a Legendary Year 1 Hand Cannon that deals Arc damage and is rewarded from the Templar Boss phase in the Vault of Glass Raid on hard mode as a rare drop. Players in Year 3 of Destiny can get a very similar weapon (if rolled correctly) known as the Imago Loop from the Strike Hoard in The Undying Mind Strike. In Destiny 2 Year 2, a new Hand cannon called Nation of Beasts was introduced as a reward from the Morgeth, the Spirekeeper encounter in the Last Wish Raid, with similar perks to the iconic gun. In Destiny 2 Year 4, with the return of the Vault of Glass raid from Destiny 1, Fatebringer is officially back, albeit with some adjustments, such as the addition of random perks, and lack of the intrinsic perk "Oracle Disruptor" as well as one fewer perk slot. Both the lack of a 3rd perk slot and the removal of the Oracle Disruptor perk are in line with the rest of the weapons from Vault of Glass (Raid).
