It was reintroduced in ''[[Forsaken]]'' and was attainable after a lengthy questline following the main story, and made available to all Classes. The Ace of Spades is named after Cayde-6's son, Ace, before he became a guardian. Since the introduction of the Beyond Light expansion, the Ace of Spades can be obtained in the Monument to Lost Lights. | ||

The Ace of Spades was a [[Hunter]]-specific [[Hand Cannon]] in [[The Taken King]] 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. In [[Forsaken]], The Ace of Spades, now available to all [[Guardian]] classes, can still easily clear hordes of enemies with the Firefly perk, where after a precision kill, the enemy explodes dealing [[Solar]] damage.

In [[Forsaken]], The Ace of Spades, now available to all [[Guardian]] classes, can still easily clear hordes of enemies with the Firefly perk, where after a precision kill, the enemy explodes dealing [[Solar]] damage. The instrinsic perk it has is called Memento Mori, where reloading after a kill gives The Ace of Spades extra damage power in six shots, making it one of the best [[exotic]] weapons in Destiny 2. | |||

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 reliable weapon, outperforming hand cannons in the same archetype and others. 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 to the Kill Clip/Outlaw combination seen on other weapons. However, unlike that combination, Memento Mori's effect wears off when the weapon is stowed, the user is killed or when all six bullets are expended, and not over time. | |||
