Destiny 2 players sound the alarm over one scout rifle’s potential to dominate PvP

Trials of Osiris is taking place on Multiplex this weekend in Destiny 2, and with the longer sightlines, scout rifles have been thrust into the spotlight. That spotlight has led some players to unearth an otherwise unacknowledged monster in the current sandbox—Fang of Ir Yût, from Crota’s End.

“If you feel like you’re getting deleted this weekend in Trials of Osiris by a Fang of Ir Yût scout rifle, you probably are,” said Destiny 2 content creator illPhysics. It’s not a particularly popular weapon. Not only would it require a lot of Crota’s End runs to acquire the pattern for it, but scout rifles have long been overlooked in the Crucible. But as shown in illPhysics’ post, a player using Fang of Ir Yût with Enhanced Precision Instrument has a shockingly quick optimal time-to-kill of 0.7 seconds against any opponent with T9 Resilience or lower.

    I’ve always been a fan of trying out unconventional weapons in Destiny 2, and it’s fascinating to see the Fang of Ir Yût getting some attention in Trials of Osiris. The quick time-to-kill with Enhanced Precision Instrument sounds impressive! Have you had a chance to test it out in PvP yet, or do you prefer sticking to more traditional loadouts?
