==Overview==
==Overview==
Ripper Pods are troop transports deployed from Red Legion [[Cabal warship]]s. They cause collateral damage towards anything they impact. They disintegrate upon striking their target, releasing the [[Red Legion]] soldiers within.
Drop pods are troop transports deployed from various [[Cabal warship]]s. Apart from making a hard landing, these pods can smash [[Guardian]]s to death if they happen to be in their way. They disintegrate upon striking their target, releasing the Cabal soldiers within. It possesses magnetic shielding suitable for protecting against Arc energy.<ref>'''Bungie (2020/11/20)''', ''[[Weblore]]: [[Weblore:Season of the Hunt#Immolant Pt. 2|Immolant Pt. 2]]''</ref>
 
Drop pods are launched through an electrified rail system. The drop pod launcher upon Ghaul's command ship [[The Immortal]] is the only place where [[Amanda Holliday]] is able to drop [[The Guardian]] off in the [[Story Mission]] [[Homecoming]]. This is because The Immortal's shields do not protect the area of the ship where drop pods are deployed.

*An early design of the Ripper Pod was oblong, with two rows of "teeth" along a central seam. The pod would split in half along its seam on landing, unlike the final version.
