Sleeper Simulant

Sleeper Simulant is an Exotic Solar Linear Fusion Rifle forged by Rasputin as part of the IKELOS subroutine.

Overview

Its projectile over-penetrates enemies and ricochets once off hard surfaces, splitting into smaller beams. It can deal precision damage and does heavy damage to shielded targets.

Acquisition

• Original: the Destiny 2: Warmind quest, using IKELOS weapons for kills, completing Strikes and Escalation Protocol, and opening Sleeper Nodes. That quest was removed with Destiny 2: Beyond Light.
• Now: Exotic Archive at the Tower (the Monument to Lost Lights sold it in between).
• Destiny 1 version: from The Taken King.

Catalyst
