'''Rahndel, the Perfected''' is a [[Splicer Vandal]] encountered in the [[Wrath of the Machine]] [[Raid]] in the [[Server Farm]]. Rahndel is unusually resilient for a Reaver Vandal, owing to his original status as a regular [[Fallen]] Vandal with health several times more than what it should be.<ref name="Rahndel">'''YouTube''': ''[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=is-jJzul4QA Destiny Rise of Iron: Rahndel the Perfected Vandal Easter Egg - Wrath of the Machine]''</ref> The only way to spawn Rahndel is to complete the Siege Engine section of the [[Wrath of the Machine]] [[raid]], but there is only a small chance that he will spawn inside the server farm after players descend further into the Splicer's lair, and there is not loot associated with killing him.
