'''Monte Carlo''' is an [[Exotic]] [[Auto Rifle]] introduced exclusively in Destiny for PlayStation players. The rifle looks different from many other [[auto rifle]]s in that the front of the weapon has a bayonet. Unfortunately, this is only a novelty and cannot be used to attack. A Year Two version of Monte Carlo was reintroduced in ''[[The Taken King]]''. It was introduced into Destiny 2 during the Shadowkeep Expansion, with Season of Undying.
'''Monte Carlo''' is an [[Exotic]] [[Auto Rifle]] introduced exclusively in Destiny for PlayStation players. The rifle looks different from many other [[auto rifle]]s in that the front of the weapon has a bayonet. It was once a purely cosmetic attachment that could not be used until the introduction of its catalyst in [[Season of the Witch]], which allowed players to utilize it for powerful melee attacks. A Year Two version of Monte Carlo was reintroduced in ''[[The Taken King]]''. It was reintroduced in ''[[Destiny 2]]'' during ''[[Season of the Undying]]'' in the ''[[Shadowkeep]]'' annual pass.

*At 5 stacks of Markov Chain, pressing [Alternate Weapon Action] switches between your melee attack and Monte Carlo's bayonet. Landing a bayonet melee hit grants melee energy.

*The gun's name and descriptive text are a reference to the [[wikipedia:Monte Carlo method|Monte Carlo method]], which is a mathematical modeling method used to simulate complex phenomena and probabilities, such as the behavior of liquids and gases, the development of galaxies, and a number of other practical and theoretical applications.

*Given that it comes with the unique perk Markov Chain, it could also be a reference to the Markov Chain Monte Carlo which is a class of algorithms for sampling from a probability distribution. By constructing a Markov chain that has the desired distribution as its equilibrium distribution, one can obtain a sample of the desired distribution by recording states from the chain. The more steps that are included, the more closely the distribution of the sample matches the actual desired distribution.

*The signature perk of this weapon, the Monte Carlo Method, gives this weapon a chance to refill the user's melee attack after doing damage, and the gun also has one of the highest base reload speeds and stability amounts of any auto rifle without using any perk slots.
