The '''Cerberus+1''' is an [[Exotic]] [[auto rifle]] introduced in the ''[[Forsaken]]'' expansion for ''[[Destiny 2]]''. The weapon was built by the [[Guardian]] [[Jeza Verlayn|Jeza "Jeopardy" Verlayn]], after she crash landed on the [[Tangled Shore]], and is comprised of hastily-scavenged parts and a power source known as the Photonic Heart. She even sarcastically says she leaned into the hell theme as she thinks she landed in hell.<ref name="GameInformer">[https://www.gameinformer.com/2018/07/06/the-life-exotic-cerberus-1-brings-the-power-of-contras-spread-gun-to-destiny-2-forsaken '''Game Informer''': '' The Life Exotic: Cerberus +1 Brings The Power Of Contra's Spread Gun To Destiny 2: Forsaken'']</ref>
The '''Cerberus+1''' is an [[Exotic]] {{icon|Kinetic}} [[Auto Rifle]] introduced in ''[[Forsaken]]''. It can be acquired as a random drop from any Exotic Engram or available for purchase from [[Xûr, Agent of the Nine|Xûr]].

==Gameplay==
The Cerberus+1 has four separately-loaded barrels: the central barrel fires in a manner typical for auto rifles, while the three barrels orbiting it have a less predictable, and much less stable, fire pattern. While all four magazines are reloaded at once, each has a separate ammunition count and fires from an independent pool of bullets. The weapon is particularly useful for crowd control, or for ensuring that you have both close-range and mid-range capability.
This capability is enhanced by the catalyst perk, Focused Fire, which allows the weapon to switch to an alternate fire mode that behaves much like a [[Shotgun]]. This means higher damage per shot with a tighter spread, but comes with the downsides of halved RPM and damage falloff being much lower.
The Cerberus+1 catalyst is obtained as a random drop by defeating enemies. Once the catalyst is obtained, you will need to get 500 kills with the Cerberus+1 to be able to add the catalyst to the auto rifle and upgrade it to a Masterwork.
