— Weapon description

Outbreak Perfected is an Exotic Pulse Rifle introduced in Season of the Drifter, obtainable from the "Zero Hour" Exotic Mission. It is a reissued version of the Outbreak Prime from Rise of Iron in Destiny. After the mission was initially sunset in Beyond Light, is was obtained via the Monument to Lost Lights. After the Into the Light update, this weapon was reprised with guaranteed Deepsight Resonance; making this exotic craftable.

Gameplay

Outbreak Perfected is the third Exotic Pulse Rifle introduced into Destiny 2, the first two being Vigilance Wing and Graviton Lance. Much like its previous incarnation, it has the potential to be a highly versatile multipurpose weapon in the hands of a player with good aim. In PVE, the weapon can clear groups of enemies with relative ease, and can deal considerable damage to boss enemies once enough nanites attach to them, especially in a full fireteam of Outbreak Perfected users.

In PVP, the gun, as of The Witch Queen, falls into a pulse rifle archetype that finds it hard to compete with the likes of other pulses, legendary or exotic. The nanite swarms produced by the weapons traits can be useful to tarry other players, though securing them in the first place can be a difficult task.

Catalyst

The Exotic Catalyst for Outbreak Perfected was initially obtained through the Zero Hour mission on Heroic difficulty, with subsequent clears progressing the catalyst. Since the release of Beyond Light, the catalyst became a playlist activity reward until the reintroduction of Zero Hour in Into the Light, which will now drop on first clear of the exotic mission's Legend-difficulty variant (on-par with Heroic Zero Hour).

Once obtained, players need to perform 500 kills with the weapon to unlock the catalyst perk:

• Exotic Trait: Disease Vector - Increases nanite damage. Enemies that die with nanites attached to them generate additional nanites.

---

The Captain stands with his primary hands braced on a command table. He stares down at a static holoprojection as though it might reveal some new secrets. Nearby, the Hunter combs through scout reports. The Warlock taps rapidly at a datapad, running simulation after simulation. No one speaks.

There is a deafening boom. The holoprojection flickers; the whole Skiff tilts seventy degrees off-kilter. The Captain holds tight to the table, reaching out with a secondary arm to snatch the Hunter as he goes toppling by. The Warlock is not a concern; she has Blinked her way to a secure handhold.

The Captain calls to his crew, speaking Eliksni too fast for the Hunter or the Warlock to follow. Someone calls back. The Skiff tilts nauseously, then stabilizes.

"Eramis?" the Warlock asks.

The Captain nods. Letting go of the Hunter, he disappears through an access hatch to consult with his new crew.

"I don't like this," the Hunter says lowly. "We should be there with him."

The Warlock chews on her lower lip. She doesn't like it either, but they've argued endlessly with their Captain and gained no ground. "We have to trust him," she says finally. "This is what he wants."

"Trust him to die?" the Hunter hisses. "Let's break down how stupid this is: not only does he want to infiltrate the Tower without us, he's planning to wear Devils colors to interrupt a Devils heist to reclaim SIVA. And instead of leaning on us, his good Guardian friends, he's banking on some stranger –"

"Not a stranger," the Warlock cuts in.

"Fine! Not a stranger, but definitely not a friend!" The Hunter grits his teeth. "We should do it. We need to do it. Let's just go; let's go now. We can cut them off." He conjures his Ghost with a twist of his wrist, readying for transmat.

"We have to trust him," the Warlock repeats, reaching out to grasp the Hunter's forearm. "I think he's right when he says it doesn't mean anything if we do it. Guardians do extraordinary things all the time. And he needs more allies…"

The Captain reenters their little ad-hoc war room. They draw up guiltily. The Hunter hides his Ghost.

"All well?" he asks, looking between them.

"Eia, Mithrax," the Warlock murmurs. "We're all good."

The Hunter says nothing.

"We walk this hardship-path with joyful hearts. Be brave."

Trivia

• The only physical differences between Outbreak Prime and Outbreak Perfected is that the latter's SIVA symbol is red instead of white and the weapon's colors appear darker and stand out.
