'''Red Death''' is an Exotic [[Pulse Rifle]] introduced in ''[[Destiny]]'' Year One. It was formerly owned by a [[Guardian]], until its owner was killed, presumably in battle. It was then taken by a bandit, who repainted it and modified it, among other things hacking the optics and adding new graphics.<ref>[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VEKeMsQ9AB4 '''DattoDoesDestiny''' - ''Destiny Guns!

In addition to being conventionally powerful, Red Death can restore health and increase reload speed for a short time after every kill. The Red Death can be an incredibly viable asset during the [[Crota's End]] raid as the health restoration perk of this weapon effectively negates the "Presence of Crota" debuff which halts normal health regeneration. <ref>'''Game Informer January 2014''', ''page 59''</ref>

===Gameplay===
Returning as '''Red Death Reformed''', it is now a [[Solar]] weapon that has the added ability of curing nearby allies when it is reloaded after a kill, making it an excellent weapons for support-based playstyles.
 
*'''Redemption''': Final blows with this weapon cure you and increase reload speed; reloading after final blows cures nearby allies.
*'''Full Bore''': Barrel optimized for distance. Greatly increases range. Decreases stability. Slightly decreases handling speed.
*'''High-Caliber Rounds''': Shots from this weapon knock the target back farther. Slightly increases range.
*'''Inverse Relationship''': When you deal damage with this weapon, it gains increased handling, takes reduced flinch, and movement speed is increased for a short time. When you are at reduced health, this weapon deals additional damage.
*'''Fitted Stock''': This stock makes the weapon stable but heavy. Increases stability. Moderately controls recoil. Slightly decreases handling speed.
 
===Catalyst===
The catalyst is obtained after reaching rank 145 on the [[Episode: Echoes]] season pass. Upgrading it will grant it the following perk:
 
'''Helping Hand''': Final blows charge this weapon. When the weapon is charged, the next final blow creates a healing burst at your location and leaves a remnant behind that provides restoration to your allies.
