- "All right."
- — A Dark Age drifter
21% Delirium is a Legendary Machine Gun introduced to Destiny 2 in Joker's Wild. It is acquired from The Drifter's pinnacle quest during Season 6. It is the first 900 RPM machine gun in Destiny 2.
Lore
A Dark Age drifter stood against an oncoming horde. The stuff of nightmares. Quad-armed, mouths full of shining carnivore teeth, carrying weathered but fully functional armor and weapons. They moved as a mob, their boots kicking up clouds of dust as they advanced, blades glinting in the sun.
"All right," he said, a quiet salute to his dance partners as he wove around sizzling Arc bolts, coat trailing him like a shadow. He might not walk away from this. But they definitely wouldn't.
His Machine Gun spoke much louder than he did, over and over.
He had never brought himself to shoot a human. Or anything even resembling a human. Risen included.
But these were no Risen. No humans.
He broke their advance like oil parting water, the repeating bloom of his heavy leading the way. A blue, viscous film covered the dirt, dust, and rocks when he was finished.
"All right," he said, looking appreciably down at his smoking weapon. A trail of spent shells traced his path through his opponents' ranks.
Hard to find a bite out here, most days.
Every day.
He wondered what they'd taste like.
Perks
- Rapid-Fire Frame: Deeper ammo reserves. Slightly faster reload when magazine is empty.
- Polygonal Rifling: Barrel optimized for recoil reduction. Increases stability.
- Extended Mag: This weapon has a greatly increased magazine size, but reloads much slower. Greatly increases magazine size. Greatly decreases reload speed.
- Overflow: Picking up Special or Heavy ammo reloads this weapon to beyond normal capacity.
- Killing Tally: Kills increase this weapon's damage until it is stowed or reloaded.
Trivia
- The 21% Delirium appears visually identical, excluding coloring, to the Avalanche.
- There is a misconception that the weapon is named after a Destiny player called CtrlAltDelirium. While such a player exists, they have had no publicly searchable involvement with the community.[citation needed]
