So despite all the controversy and issues, everyone agrees that the gunplay, graphics, design, music, and sound of Destiny are top notch. I was thinking about the academy awards for the game - certainly Destiny won't win for Best Director, Actor, or Original Screenplay, but it might well sweep the technical awards.
To that end, let's do Sound Design. What is the best sound effect in Destiny?
I have many nominees, but one that I just love is the "charge down" sound for fusion rifles if you charge up but don't fire. Judders down like a massive growling engine.
What have you got?
EDIT: Great feedback! Some clear winners in here and a bunch I didn't know about. DeeJ should send this on to the Bungie sound team.

The noise it makes on the last mission "the black garden" when you open the door to the black gardens heart and the glass thing breaks into a bunch of metal shards and the light beam goes through it! It sounds like you're standing on a frozen lake.

Destiny have lots of great sound effects! I especially like cabal heads pop, septis prime explode, the sound when you get legend/exotic stuff, the new sparrow sound and the last word being auto fired.
