Dreg's Promise is an exotic Sidearm that can be acquired in House of Wolves. It is based on the Fallen Shock Pistol frequently used by Dregs.
Aquisition
The Dreg's promise is one of three possible rewards for The Elder Cipher exotic bounty. The bounty is only available as a random reward for the level 34 or 35 Prison of Elders challenge modes.
Gameplay
The Dreg's Promise is the second Sidearm in Destiny and the only exotic sidearm. It fires three arc damage shots upon pulling the trigger and has 18 rounds in its magazine, meaning 6 bursts. It is a fairly good weapon in PvE, it shines against "cannon fodder" enemies, such as Dregs. It isn't very good against Captains or similar enemies. It isn't a great weapon in PvP, although that is to be expected, given the rapid fire nature of the weapon. It should only be used if your primary weapon's magazine is empty. It does not have good range and should not be used at range. Its perks include:
Reserve Ammo: When you spawn with this weapon, you will always have ammo.
Soft Ballistics: Less recoil. Less Impact.
CQB Ballistics: Much, much recoil. Significant penalty to range.
Aggressive Ballistics: Easier to control recoil, more recoil, less range, more impact.
Grave Robber: Killing enemies using melee with this weapon equipped has a chance to refill magazine.
Snapshot: You aim this weapon incredibly fast.
Field Scout: More ammo in the magazine. (18-21)
Perfect Balance: Much less recoil.
