Crimil's Dagger is returning in Destiny 2 The Final Shape via the Episode Echoes Iron Banner. The Kinetic Hand Cannon is one of the oldest gear pieces in the game, dating back to Y2 in 2018, alongside the Season of the Forge. It is an Aggressive Framed weapon that fires at 120 RPM, making it slower than most Hand Cannons. However, it more than makes up for it with increased base Impact damage and Range.
This article lists the best perks of the new and improved Crimil's Dagger for PvE and PvP. Note that Iron Banner weapons are not craftable, so you must get the perk combination via drops only. However, each perk can be enhanced for better stats, making the farm worthwhile.
