Dead Man's Tale Exotic (Presage Mission)

The intrinsic trait, Cranial Spike, rewards chained precision hits with better target acquisition, longer range, extra rounds reloaded and more damage against combatants.

Unlike most Exotics it has random perk columns for barrel, magazine, trait and stock, so the roll can differ between copies. The trait pool includes Outlaw, Fourth Time's the Charm, Compulsive Reloader, Killing Wind, Moving Target, Vorpal Weapon, Rapid Hit and Shoot to Loot.

Presage is on the list of exotic missions available now, and the game data names the Presage exotic quest as this weapon's source.

The catalyst adds Dark-Forged Trigger, which removes hipfire accuracy penalties and raises rate of fire, with extra damage when hipfiring at maximum stacks of Cranial Spike. The lot offers it as an Additional Option.

• Dead Man's Tale (Exotic Scout Rifle) added to your account.
• Additional Options: Add DMT Catalyst; Unlock Every Crafting Trait; Deep Stone Crypt Raid Completion.
• Extras: Self-play (Sherpa).

• Presage unlocked on the account.
• For the Deep Stone Crypt Raid Completion option: the Beyond Light Pack, which carries the raid.
