Rufus's Fury God Roll: What 122,200 Players Equip

Updated 2026-10-09 · 6 min read · by LFCarry PRO team

Rufus's Fury is a Strand Rapid-Fire Kinetic auto rifle from Root of Nightmares. Across 122,200 tracked copies the pair that lands in most vaults is Reconstruction plus Target Lock. A Strand-loop pair and a Crucible pair sit beside that majority.

Rufus's Fury God Roll: What 122,200 Players Equip

The roll, up front

If you only read 1 line: chase Reconstruction in the 3rd column and Target Lock in the 4th when you want the workhorse. Chase Demolitionist plus Hatchling when the build is Strand grenades. The Crucible pair below is the 3rd roll worth keeping.

Farm Rufus's Fury, or clear Root of Nightmares

Name 2 perks for the farm. A full Root of Nightmares clear puts you on Zo'aurc and Nezarec.

Why Reconstruction plus Target Lock wins the vault

Rufus's Fury is a Rapid-Fire Frame Strand Kinetic auto rifle. 720 rounds per minute. Deeper reserves. A faster reload when the magazine is empty. Hash 484515708.

Reconstruction reloads the magazine over time when the gun is holstered, then overfills it. Target Lock ramps damage the longer you hold the trigger on the same target. The 2 perks turn a 720 RPM primary into a boss-and-major workhorse. That is why Reconstruction sits on 27.6% of copies and Target Lock sits on 24.7%.

The Strand grenade loop is a different gun. Demolitionist refunds grenade energy on kills. Hatchling weaves a threadling on precision or final blows. That pair sits behind the workhorse on equipped share (17.0% and 23.4%) and is the pair you craft when the subclass is the point.

The Strand pair and the Crucible pair

The equipped majority is 1 roll. 2 other pairs earn a slot in the vault for a different job.

PairJobWhy it stays
Demolitionist plus HatchlingStrand grenade / threadling loopDemolitionist feeds the grenade. Hatchling feeds the threadling. Craft this when the subclass is Strand.
Perpetual Motion plus Target LockCrucible peek fightsPerpetual Motion stacks while you move. Target Lock still ramps in a long beam. Do not craft the grenade pair for Crucible.
Slice plus Chaos ReshapedSever / overflow loopSlice 15.2%. Chaos Reshaped 15.7%. Both sit in the live pool. Keep a copy if you already landed them.

Keep Reconstruction plus Target Lock for raids and Legend Nightfall. Keep Demolitionist plus Hatchling for a Strand grenade kit. Keep Perpetual Motion plus Target Lock if you queue Crucible with this frame.

Barrel, magazine, and the Adept copy

Arrowhead Brake sits on 32.1% of copies. Recoil direction on a 720 RPM auto. Hammer-Forged Rifling at 11.2% is the range pick when the map is long. Polygonal Rifling at 5.5% is the stability pick.

Ricochet Rounds sits on 48.6%. Range and stability on the same magazine. That is the clearest magazine signal in the set.

An Adept copy exists under hash 342514437. Same Rapid-Fire frame. Same origin. Master challenge drops that Adept. Do not delete a crafted Reconstruction plus Target Lock copy to chase the Adept stamp.

Where it drops, and how you craft it

Rufus's Fury drops from Root of Nightmares. Zo'aurc, the 3rd encounter. Nezarec, the final encounter. Hidden chests unlock after the 1st drop. Spoils of Conquest buy extra copies at the vendor.

Crafted copies need Deepsight patterns from those encounters. The origin trait on those copies is Harmonic Resonance. Update 9.7.0 keeps Destinations raids on the map. Root of Nightmares is still the farm. Pale Heart stays on the map for other quests.

Every other Root of Nightmares drop, encounter by encounter, is in the Root of Nightmares loot table.

Farm the roll, or have it farmed

2 honest paths. The 2-perk farm on any legendary is $107 today. A full Root of Nightmares clear puts you on Zo'aurc and Nezarec, the 2 encounters that drop this gun. A leftover raid farm is $12 when you only need more patterns.

If you have the hours, run Zo'aurc and Nezarec and keep every copy with Reconstruction until Target Lock lands. If the build is Strand grenades, keep Demolitionist until Hatchling lands. If you do not have the hours, name the 2 trait columns. The team farms the source until that pair is in your vault.
