Ice Breaker is an exotic Sniper Rifle in Destiny. The weapon features self-replenishing ammunition and when fully upgraded, has a chance to return ammo directly to the magazine & cause enemies to explode. This is offset by the fact that Icebreaker starts with zero ammo after the player spawns, regenerates ammo slower than it can be fired, cannot use special ammo pickups or ammo synthesis, and cannot carry more than a magazine's worth of ammo.

Unique Upgrades

No Backpack - Cannot be reloaded. Regenerates ammo over time.
Mulligan - Missing a shot has a chance to return ammo directly to the magazine.
Ice Breaker - Ice Breaker's victims spontaneously combust, dealing damage to others nearby.

Grimoire Card

"The Ice Breaker series was a clandestine project developed by the Vanguard in conjunction with various City weapons foundries. Meant as an exploration of Golden Age weapon technology, the project was scrapped after only a single weapon reached the testing phase.

The prototypes for the project's lone weapon are considered dangerous and unfit for field duty by the Vanguard. This hasn't stopped daring Guardians from seeking out the Ice Breakers - death, after all, is an occupational hazard."
