The first Destiny 2 Faction Rally is over and the winners are as happy as any team of gloomy space goths could possibly be. Bungie confirmed that Dead Orbit won the first weeklong token-gathering competition, beating out all those who hitched their space wagons to Future War Cult and New Monarchy.

You may notice evidence of who won the first Faction Rally in Destiny 2 as you make your way back to the Tower.Congratulations, Dead Orbit. Thanks to all who played in support of their favorite faction. There is always next time! pic.twitter.com/7hjr6AdeVoOctober 3, 2017

Decorations are fine, but Guardians know the most important part of any event is the guns. The rally's results determined which of three special guns would be added to the game and now we've got a good look at the victor: Haunted Earth, a slow but powerful kinetic scout rifle. Anybody can buy Haunted Earth, but if you pledged to Dead Orbit in the rally you can pick one up at a special price of 1,000 Glimmer. Everybody else will need to shell out 50,000.

Here's a video of the gun in action. Keep scrolling for a list of the perks.

Field Prep: Increased ammo reserves. Faster reload when crouched.

Oh, and here's the flavor text, just in case you want to feel really moody because of a sentence written on a gun.

"Those we've lost still linger in every place we look. Earth is no place for the living." - Arach Jalaal

"White on white translucent black capes, back on the rack. Bela Lugosi's dead." - Bauhaus

Ok, that second one isn't actually on the gun.

I got a BA in journalism from Central Michigan University - though the best education I received there was from CM Life, its student-run newspaper. Long before that, I started pursuing my degree in video games by bugging my older brother to let me play Zelda on the Super Nintendo. I've previously been a news intern for GameSpot, a news writer for CVG, and was formerly a staff writer at GamesRadar+.
