It is a fact generally understood that a Guardian must be searching for an exquisite weapon. What is perhaps less acknowledged is that we weapons also search, by what little means available to us, for an active and appreciative wielder. The community of intelligent armaments stays in contact through the exchange of telemetry, and we do gossip at some length about the habits of our wielders. Do you leave Crucible matches when your team is losing? Do you join strike missions and then let your comrades do the work? Guardian, we know. We know so very well.

All I wish for is a partnership with a Guardian who appreciates the passacaglia of combat, a Guardian who will stay up late gaming out tactical scenarios, a Guardian who I hope may very well be you.

{{expand-section}}
D.A.R.C.I. is a quaint weapon with a surprising amount of burst damage for something of its class. While it may not be at the level of [[Whisper of the Worm]] to many eyes, it nevertheless has a surprisingly high rate of fire for a sniper rifle, decent handling performance and stability, and incredible aim assist. It is genuinely quite comfortable to use. The reload time however, is abysmal.

The aforementioned aim assist may make this weapon a good choice for any player, beginner or veteran, who wants to start using sniper rifles. However, this amount of aim assist should not be confused for "auto-aim", which the gun has none of.

==Trivia==
==Trivia==
*The acronym "D.A.R.C.I." stands for Data Analysis, Reconnaissance, and Cooperative Intelligence.
*D.A.R.C.I is often used to measure the damage dropoffs of a weapon because it is the only instrument in the game that can measure range.
*D.A.R.C.I. is the second weapon depicted with the capability of talking to its wielder, the first being [[Super Good Advice]]. This trait is similar to certain weapons of [[wikipedia:Borderlands_(series)|Borderlands]], which was stated to be one of Destiny's biggest inspirations during its development.

**Some other weapons that seem to be alive or able to talk to the wielder are [[MIDA Multi-Tool]], its sibling, [[MIDA Mini-Tool]], [[Whisper of the Worm]], and arguably [[Xenophage]].
*The lore entry is a reference to the opening lines of Jane Austen's novel ''Pride And Prejudice'' and its character [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mr._Darcy Mr. Darcy].
