About Kestrel Prime
Kestrel Prime is the Primed counterpart of the Kestrel boomerang and acts as a direct upgrade. It can bounce up to eight times while it is in the air, and it was released alongside Gyre Prime and Alternox Prime.
Its blueprint and parts drop from Void Relics opened in Void Fissure missions; the relic list on this page shows the exact relics. With so many bounces, it works well in tight corridors where it can hit multiple enemies per throw.
Kestrel Prime was added with Update 41.0 (December 2025).
Requires Mastery Rank 11.
Kestrel Prime is tradable, see the current prices in the market box above.
