'''Ace of Spades''' | '''Ace of Spades''' is a [[Hunter]]-exclusive exotic [[Hand Cannon]] introduced in ''[[The Taken King]]''.<ref>[https://www.bungie.net/en/Armory/Detail?type=item&item=552354419&itemname=Ace%20of%20Spades '''Bungie.net''' - ''Armory: Ace of Spaces'']</ref> It is obtained by reaching Rank 3 [[Gunsmith]] reputation with a Hunter and completing the [[Quest#Back in the Saddle|Back in the Saddle]] [[quest]]. It was reintroduced in ''[[Forsaken (expansion)|Forsaken]]'' and can be obtained after a lengthy questline following the main story. | ||
==Overview== | ==Overview== | ||
The Ace of Spades is a [[Hunter]]-specific [[Hand Cannon]] that fits into the mid-impact archetype. The weapon has 12 bullets in the magazine and is capable of clearing entire rooms of enemies without reloading using the Maverick perk, which reloads one bullet from the reserves after a precision kill. | |||

The Ace of Spades returns in the ''Forsaken'' expansion. Unlike its ''Destiny'' incarnation, it is no longer restricted to Hunters. In PvP, it has proven itself to be an extremely powerful weapon, outperforming hand cannons in the same archetype and others including, but not limited to, Better Devils, Dire Promise, and Jack Queen King 3. Memento Mori grants the user radar even when aiming down sights, a trait which is shared with [[MIDA Multi-Tool]]. The perk also grants six increased damage bullets after every kill and reload, and when paired with its Firefly perk, gives it an effect similar the Kill Clip/Outlaw combination seen on other, legendary weapons. However, unlike that combination, Memento Mori's effect remains even when switching weapons, and only wears off when the user is killed or when all six bullets are expended, and not over time. | |||
