The only way to get Eternity’s Gate in Starfield is to side with The Hunter and defeat The Emissary during the main questline, specifically as part of “Revelation,” after siding with the former in “Unearthed.”

Once you beat The Emissary, do not forget to loot his body. After all, you just took down a Starborn, so surely he has some epic loot to score. And he does! You’ll find Eternity’s Gate on his corpse; it’s a unique variant of the Va’ruun Inflictor with three boons and pre-installed weapon modifications, too!

As one of the stronger particle beam weapons in Starfield, the Va’ruun Inflictor is already a viable weapon to push you into the endgame. But this unique variant features not one but three rare affixes, including Anti-Personnel, which deals additional damage to human enemies—the most common foe in the game.
