===Summary===
===Destiny 1===
Outbreak Prime has the potential to be a highly versatile primary weapon in that it is capable of both killing multiple enemies with relative ease and dealing serious damage against bosses. The intrinsic perk procs every fourth burst, which also increases the damage of the actual burst on top of the SIVA nanite swarm homing in on its target, which stacks with the extra damage that [[Fallen]] take. If constant fire is laid down on an important target, then they should go down in record time. The exotic perk, on the other hand, while not always proccing, activates consistently enough to have an effect on gameplay. The SIVA nanite swarm achieved from getting a precision kill should be able take out at least one other enemy. The fast fire rate and good stability, provided you have selected both Smart Drift Control and Fitted Stock, will make scoring headshots much easier. The questline is long, but completing it will earn you one of the most powerful and versatile primary weapons in the game.

===Destiny 2===
In Destiny 2, the weapon remains relatively the same except for a few changes, the major one being a name change to [[Outbreak Perfected]]. The intrinsic perk now spawns a SIVA swarm that increases the amount of damage the gun itself does to the afflicted target as well as damaging them. The catalyst also provides a boost to the damage that the nanites do and allows you to spawn more just by killing a target that’s already tainted by the nanites.
