Revision 14728 by archivist at 2026-10-09 05:15:08

Khvostov 7G-0X is an Exotic Kinetic Auto Rifle from the Final Shape era, an upgrade of the starter Khvostov 7G-02.

Overview

  • Archetype: 600 RPM auto rifle, 42-round magazine.
  • Intrinsic perk The Right Choice: every seventh bullet deals extra damage and ricochets to nearby targets (empowered with Orbs of Power per Destinypedia).
  • Destiny 1 version (Rise of Iron) had no exotic perk but customizable firing modes.

Acquisition

  1. Finish the Final Shape campaign to open The Pale Heart as a patrol space.
  2. Unlock the legendary Khvostov 7G-02: collect 15 Lost Encryption Bits (9 from region chests, 6 from rubble in Cyst activities) and exchange at the Lost City.
  3. Collect 17 Motes of Light: 9 from Overthrow bosses and 8 from "Visions of the Traveler" collectibles.
  4. Place the Visions in the Lost City / Speaker's Room to open the golden chest. The game lists the source as "Exploring the Pale Heart".

Catalyst

Added in June 2026, the catalyst grants Attrition Orbs: sustained damage creates an Orb of Power. The catalyst objective is 700 target defeats. PC Gamer’s June 10, 2026 table lists Vanguard Ops, Crucible, Gambit, or Exotic Order payouts as acquisition sources.
