'''Ace of Spades''' is a [[Exotic]] {{icon|Kinetic}}  [[Hand Cannon]] introduced in ''[[The Taken King]]'' as a [[Hunter]]-exclusive Exotic and the signature weapon of the [[Vanguard]] Hunter [[Cayde-6]]. It is obtained by reaching Rank 3 [[Gunsmith]] reputation with a Hunter and completing the "[[Quest#Back in the Saddle|Back in the Saddle]]" [[quest]]. It was reintroduced in ''[[Forsaken]]'' and was previously attainable after a lengthy questline following the main story campaign, and made available to all classes. Since the introduction of the ''[[Beyond Light]]'' expansion, the Ace of Spades can be available for purchase at the [[Monument to Lost Lights]].

**'''Firefly''': Precision kills with this weapon cause the target to explode.

**'''Reinforced Barrel''': Increased Range. Reduced Stability.

**'''High Caliber Rounds''': Oversize rounds built to stagger targets and leave them reeling. Their mass makes a weapon harder to handle.

**'''Perfect Balance''': This weapon has extremely low recoil.

"Heeeeeeey there, Banshee!"

"Whaddya want, Cayde?"

"Yeah? How's it looking?"

"Did all the design myself. So it's looking good."

"Is that... an ace of spades?"

"Yep."<ref>'''Bungie (2015/9/15)''', ''[[Destiny]]: [[The Taken King]] Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Inventory/Primary_Weapons#Ace_of_Spades|Ace of Spades]]''</ref>

==Destiny 2==

===Gameplay===

Unlike its ''Destiny'' iteration, the Ace of Spades in ''Destiny 2'' is no longer restricted to Hunters. In PvP, it has proven itself to be an extremely reliable weapon, outperforming hand cannons in the same archetype and others. Memento Mori grants the user radar even when aiming down sights, a trait which is shared with [[MIDA Multi-Tool]]. The perk also grants six increased damage bullets after every kill and reload, and when paired with its Firefly perk, gives it an effect similar to the Kill Clip/Outlaw combination seen on other weapons. However, unlike that combination, Memento Mori's effect wears off when the weapon is stowed, the user is killed or when all six bullets are expended, and not over time.

===Perks===

*Intrinsic: '''Memento Mori''' - Reloading after a kill loads magazine with a few extra-damage bullets. Grants radar when aiming down sights.

*'''[[lightgg:4090651448|Corkscrew Rifling]]''': Balanced barrel.  

**Slightly increases range and stability.  

*'''[[lightgg:1561002382|High-Caliber Rounds]]''': Shots from this weapon knock the target back farther.

*Exotic Trait: '''Firefly''' - Precision kills with this weapon increase reload speed and cause the target to explode, dealing [[Solar]] damage to nearby enemies.

*'''[[lightgg:3326204863|Smooth Grip]]''': This weapon is slightly easier to hold and aim.

====Catalyst====

*Exotic Trait: '''Funeral Pyre''' - Firefly deals more damage while Memento Mori is active.
