The back story to Red Death looking like an auto rifle is that is was an auto rifle until Bungie decided that there wasnt enough exotic pulse rifles.

    I think it was probably that for a few as well as a partial nerf pre release. If you kept the exotic perk and matched it to what the gun really looks like there are a few pretty scary combinations. Red death looks like an Auto rifle, now imagine a year 1 pre nerf autorfile with decent impact and medium stability that fully heals you every kill. How about suros which to me looks like a unique design pulse rifle. increased DPS while aiming, and glass half full with the chance of healing you. I bet something like that would have been 1 shotting people and even more of a nightmare than the year 1 suros auto rifle pre nerf. Bad juju. clearly a scout rifle, but with full auto, faster super charge, and ammo refilled every kill you have a year 1 touch of malice with no health penalty. Hard light looks like a pulse rifle but I think it was only changed because it needed to be displaced so that there werent too many pulse rifles. Same goes for monty carlo.

  • That, or Bob in graphic design read his email wrong, and skinned Red Death as an auto rifle instead of a pulse so Bungie just said -blam!- it, and left it.
