The Vestigial Organ in The First Descendant is one of the most effective launchers in the game. This weapon can easily mow down swarms of enemies and deal massive damage to bosses. It's a rare-grade launcher that uses High Power Rounds (Purple) as ammo. This makes it somewhat finicky as your main source of damage, but you can always resort to it when you get overwhelmed and need some quick AoE bursts.
In this guide, we'll share information and an optimal grind route to help you obtain the Vestigial Organ in The First Descendant.
How to Get the Vestigial Organ in The First Descendant
You can acquire the Vestigial Organ fairly early in the game if you don't mind the grind.
Follow these steps:
- Travel to the arid landscape of the Agna Desert.
- Locate the specific mission called "Miragestone: Vulgus Strategic Outpost" within the Agna Desert area.
- This plays out like any Vulgus Outpost, and you’ll need to stand your ground against level 53 monsters. Once you beat it, the mission has a 50% chance of rewarding you with the Vestigial Organ.
- The Outpost mission is not the only source of this weapon, as it has a chance to drop from any Elite monster while you’re clearing out Agna Desert missions. Note, that the Vestigial Organ will drop at a level appropriate for the region, which determines its firearm ATK stat.

Once you obtain the weapon:
- If you're satisfied with the bonus stats, visit a Workbench to upgrade it using Weapon Level Transmission, which will increase the weapon's damage but consume a Phase Exchanger.
- The effectiveness of bonus stats depends on the area/monster level. The higher the level, the more impactful bonus stats will be attached to the weapon when it drops. For maximum stats, you’ll need to use Hard Mode - a world difficulty that you unlock after beating the main campaign. In this mode, everything is scaled to level 100, including weapon drops.
- If you choose to upgrade, use the Workbench's Weapon Readjustment feature to reroll the bonus stats to suit your playstyle.
- For optimal results, reach Level 100 and aim to farm weapons with at least two desirable bonuses, then re-roll the remaining stats.
We hope this guide helps you obtain the Vestigial Organ in The First Descendant. This powerful launcher can be a game-changer in various encounters.
