'''Ice Breaker''' is an exotic [[Sniper Rifle]] in ''[[Destiny]]''. The weapon features self-replenishing ammunition and when fully upgraded, has a chance to return ammo directly to the magazine & cause enemies to explode, similar to the perk "Firefly". This is offset by the fact that Icebreaker starts with zero ammo after the player spawns, regenerates ammo one every six seconds, cannot use special ammo pickups or ammo synthesis, and cannot carry more than a magazine's worth of ammo. This weapon has two custom ornaments that change the appearance of the weapon. They can be acquired by opening Treasures of the Dawning and Radiant Treasures.

The prototypes for the project's lone weapon are considered dangerous and unfit for field duty by the Vanguard. This hasn't stopped daring Guardians from seeking out the Ice Breakers - death, after all, is an occupational hazard."

==Trivia==
*The weapon is a fan favorite in the Destiny Community due to its reliability and usage in both PvE and PvP.
*Despite not being generally for PvP due to lower aim assist and higher zoom, Ice Breaker saw greater usage in the Crucible and Trials of Osiris after patch 2.5.0.2. This patch nerfed special ammo to be lost upon death; thus, incentivizing the exotic.
