The Dual Fiend Hunters are much more common then its Crossbow predecessor. The Fiend Hunter Crossbow was a epic tier weapon that was considered very unpopular amongst the player base that, while being silent when shot and having infinite ammo, it did not do much damage to players and also little to no damage to structures.

The Dual Fiend Hunter is not a set in stone rarity like its fellow crossbow, with it coming in everything from Uncommon to Legendary. The weapon fires faster but also loses its older brother’s infinite ammo. It also retains its low damage on players but they do a lot of damage to Cubed Creatures and other monsters found in the Sideways. If you want to clear out these zones to complete some of the Season 8 challenges, these weapons might be able to help you clear those out. If you want to try these dual-wield weapons out, just know that you won’t find them in competitive playlists, so don’t waste your time in those modes looking for the new weapons.
