The '''Ruinous Effigy''' is an [[Exotic]] {{icon|Void}} [[Trace Rifle]] introduced in ''[[Destiny 2]]'' during ''[[Season of Arrivals]]''. It was previously acquired through the "[[Growth]]" exotic [[quest]] and is now available at the [[Monument to Lost Lights]].
The '''Ruinous Effigy''' is an [[Exotic]] [[Trace Rifle]] in ''[[Destiny 2]]''. It is acquired through the ''[[Missive]]'' exotic quest that became available to players during The [[Season of Arrivals]]. It fires a steady [[Void]] beam. Enemies killed by this weapon turn into Transmutation Spheres. Transmutation Spheres can be used by the player as weapons.
 
==Overview==
The origin of the weapon began with an irregularity in [[The Drifter (character)|The Drifter]]'s [[Prismatic Recaster]], which mirrors the gravitational disturbances from the [[Cradle]] which attracted the attention of [[Savathûn's Hive]]. As the [[Savathûn, the Witch-Queen|Witch Queen]] seeks to halt the Tower's progress, [[Eris Morn]] requests the [[Guardian]]'s aid in clearing a path to the [[Tree of Silver Wings]]. After completing a run through the Interference mission, Eris appeared at the Cradle, stating that she believes the Darkness offers a Gift in the form of a weapon. A newly-grown branch from the tree was removed, and through a series of steps was tempered and reshaped into the Ruinous Effigy.

===Transmutation Spheres===
**Slightly Increases stability.
Transmutation Spheres have 3 abilities: Heavy Attack, Light Attack, and Guard/Drain. The Sphere has an ammo counter that goes down as time passes. The Heavy attack consumes all ammo and does devastating damage to the area around it, as well as suppressing anyone caught within the blast. A heavy attack at full ammo will do the same damage as a heavy attack at 5 ammo.  The Light attack consumes 1 ammo and does a small amount of damage. The Drain/Guard ability slowly damages enemies within the vicinity and regenerates the user's health. It also provides a bonus to damages resistance. This ability slowly consumes ammo and can be used past 1 ammo, but in doing so damages the player.
**Slightly Increases handling Speed.


===Catalyst===
===Catalyst===
The [[Exotic Catalyst]] has a chance to drop from any enemy killed with a Transmutation sphere. To progress the catalyst, players are required to have 700 kills with either Ruinous Effigy or its Transmutation spheres; though at one point players could increase progress by destroying '''Eyes of Savathûn''' located across the system with the weapon during ''Season of Arrivals''. Once completed, the catalyst unlocks the following perk:
*Source: Kill an enemy with a Transmutation Sphere
*Exotic Trait: '''Deconstruction''' - This weapon deals increased damage against targets damaged by Transmutation spheres.
*Masterwork Objective: Collect 5,000 points. 1 point is awarded for every enemy killed, while 34 points are awarded for every Savathun's Eye destroyed with the weapon.
*Enemies damaged by Transmutation Spheres take more damage from the Ruinous Effigy.

*The Ruinous Effigy is one of the three trace rifles that isn't manufactured by [[Omolon]].
*During the Quest to build the Ruinous Effigy, a transmission excerpt from Eris states that the [[Touch of Malice]] was used as a blueprint for the Ruinous Effigy. She comments that, while the Touch of Malice was "crude, vicious", the Ruinous Effigy "is a thing of beauty".
