How to Unlock It
Sarru drops only from the XB-35 "Phoebe" Marauder world boss during the Red Moon Rising event in the PvE Dark Zone, between September 24 and November 3, 2026. The drop is not guaranteed and Ubisoft has not published a percentage, so expect to repeat the fight. Run a full squad so teammates can trade duplicates. Sarru has no blueprint, so the attributes on the dropped piece are final and you should inspect every drop. After the event ends on November 3, 2026, Sarru leaves the event pool and returns to the general exotic pool. See the Red Moon Rising guide for the event window and pool details, and the Dark Zone guide for current PvE Dark Zone rules.
Decoy King, Explained
While in combat, the moon cycles through 8 phases every 5 seconds. Starting from a new moon, your weapon damage is amplified by 5%, rising 5% per phase until 25% at full moon, then winding back down to restart the cycle. Deploying a Decoy during a full moon grants it Overcharge and pauses the cycle for 10 seconds - time your Decoy for the full moon and the whole window hits at maximum amplifier.
Build Tips
Sarru rolls a fixed triple core of weapon damage, armor and skill tier, which is rare on a backpack and fits hybrid damage-plus-skill setups. Run a Decoy skill to cash in the full-moon Overcharge, and plan damage windows around the 40-second cycle. Test the timing in the build planner, and see tested Division 2 builds for full setups.
