Red Death

"Vanguard policy urges Guardians to destroy this weapon on sight. It is a Guardian killer."

- Weapon description

"This is our ‘Heavy Metal’ gun."

- Tom Doyle, Bungie Art Lead.

Red Death is an exotic pulse rifle featured in Destiny. The rifle features a bayonet on its barrel. It was formerly owned by a Guardian, until its owner was killed, presumably in battle. It was then taken by a bandit, who repainted it and modified it, among other things hacking the optics and adding new graphics. In addition to being conventionally powerful, it has several upgrades that provide buffs to the player, especially automatic health regeneration after every kill.
