The primordial days of the original Destiny began with a Ghost inexplicably voiced by Peter Dinklage, a wizard that may or may not have come from the moon, and exactly one gun: the trusty, rusty Khvostov assault rifle. In The Final Shape, which has capped off this MMO's 10-year Light and Darkness saga, Bungie's given this iconic weapon yet another chance at life as a Destiny 2 Khvostov Exotic, this time as the 7G-0X model, because it's always 7 with Bungie. And what do you know, it's an absolute terror in PvP.
Reliable Crucible analyst Trials Report points out that 24% of all kills in Destiny 2's latest Trials of Osiris PvP event were scored by the Khvostov 7G-0X. For context, Trials Report adds, this rivals the 37% put up by the Ammit AR2 back in Destiny 2's "funny guns" era. You know, when players abused an exploit to turn guns into hair-trigger abominations spitting out a bazillion rounds a minute. In other words, the closest comparison to this gun's performance at the highest level of PvP is a game-breaking rifle forged in lag furnaces.
