'''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 their original status as a bugged 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 they will spawn inside the server farm after players descend further into the Splicer's lair, and there is not loot associated with killing them.

==Trivia==
*Rahndel is an easter egg reference to "Randal the Vandal", a notorious [[Vandal]] found in the [[Forgotten Shore]] of the [[Cosmodrome]] next to a cave near the connection to [[The Grottos]] that was extremely difficult to kill due to a glitch that affected its health.<ref name="Rahnel"/>. This glitch allowed "Randal" to survive seven [[Gjallarhorn]] shots, and even survive a direct hit from a [[Celestial Nighthawk]] empowered [[Golden Gun]].<ref>'''YouTube''': ''[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OC71KMwrTKk&feature=youtu.be Celestial Nighthawk versus Randal the Vandal]''</ref>  
*Rahndel is an easter egg reference to "[[Randal, the Vandal]]", a notorious Level 8 Reaver [[Vandal]] found in the [[Forgotten Shore]] of the [[Cosmodrome]] next to a cave near the connection to [[The Grottos]] that was extremely difficult to kill due to a delayed spawning glitch that gave it the health of several [[Major]]s.<ref name="Rahndel"/>. This allowed "Randal" to survive seven [[Gjallarhorn]] shots, and even survive a direct hit from a [[Celestial Nighthawk]] empowered [[Golden Gun]].<ref>'''YouTube''': ''[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OC71KMwrTKk&feature=youtu.be Celestial Nighthawk versus Randal the Vandal]''</ref> Other memetic nicknames for similarly glitched [[Fallen]] include: "[[Dreg#Known Dregs|Greg the Dreg]]" and "[[Shank#Known Shanks|Hank the Shank]]".<ref>'''reddit''': ''[https://www.reddit.com/r/DestinyTheGame/comments/530asc/what_are_more_names_similar_to_randal_the_vandal/ What are more names similar to Randal the Vandal]''</ref>
*The original Rahndel was a Level 8 Reaver Vandal with unusually high attack and defense ratings akin to an Ultra. He acquired his fan-nickname based on a memetic rhyme. Other memetic nicknames for related glitched [[Fallen]] include: "Greg the Dreg" and "Hank the Shank".<ref>'''reddit''': ''[https://www.reddit.com/r/DestinyTheGame/comments/530asc/what_are_more_names_similar_to_randal_the_vandal/ What are more names similar to Randal the Vandal]''</ref>
*Rahndel's name is similar to [[Rahn, Devil Captain]].
