| '''Trace Rifles''' are powerful rifles capable of firing singular, concentrated energy beams that can be focused down upon multiple targets at once. They are under the special weapon category. Because of the low amount of known rifles, they were instead [[Infusion|infused]] with [[auto rifle]]s until the introduction of [[Upgrade Module]]s. Similarly, they shared armor mods with auto rifles as well until [[Season of the Splicer]]. Most trace rifles wieldable by Guardians were of [[Exotic]] rarity until the introduction of [[Retraced Path]]. | | '''Trace rifles''' are powerful rifles capable of firing singular, concentrated energy beams that can be focused down upon multiple targets at once. They are under the energy weapon category. The only known Trace rifles in ''[[Destiny 2]]'' are [[Coldheart]] and [[Prometheus Lens]].

| ==Overview== | | ==Exotic Trace Rifles== |
| A class of weapon first known to [[the Last City]] through the work of [[Omolon]],<ref>'''Bungie (2017/9/8)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Coldheart]]''</ref> trace rifles are highly accurate, battery-powered<ref group="Note">Magazine perks on trace rifles use battery terminology like [[fusion rifle]]s.</ref> lasers. While they may appear to have a measly impact stat, this is more than made up for by the fact they are the fastest firing weapons in the game, with a damage output between the general purpose use of auto rifles and the heavy duty power of [[machine gun]]s. Paired with their nonexistent spread and high stability they are effectively a sort of "super auto rifle" befitting of their status as special ammo weapons.
