legendary Element unverified sniper Ripper

Rainmaker

Ripper sniper rifle and the guaranteed reward from the Bloomreaper raid. Element and exact stats vary by drop and level scaling - verify in your game.

Card numbers (damage, fire rate, magazine) scale with your level and roll, so we don't list fixed stats for this weapon — check the in-game item card on your drop.

How to farm Rainmaker

Drops from: Bloomreaper the Invincible in The Bloom, Carcadia Burn. Drop rate: Guaranteed (Platinum tier on first clear) (community-reported).

Plan a 30-60 minute farm session at this drop rate. The most efficient route is to run the boss back-to-back with a fast-clear build; loot pile rolls every 6 kills on average.

Strategy notes

Pick your element for the target

This drop can roll with different elements (or none) depending on the instance, so confirm the element on your copy in-game. Match it to the target: shock for shields, corrosive for armor, fire for flesh.

Vault Hunter pairing

The natural fit for Rainmaker is Amon for crit ramp; Vex for backstab burst. Stack the relevant capstone before farming the deeper raid tiers — the build planner at /builder/ lets you preview the synergy.

Build the rest of your loadout

A legendary sniper like Rainmaker earns its spot when the rest of your kit covers the gaps it leaves. Pair it with a close-range crowd-clear option for inevitable swarm waves. See our walkthroughs for boss-by-boss build recommendations.

Sourcing note. Drop source and drop-rate figures on this page come from official 2K patch notes and established community boss guides (MentalMars, Fextralife, game8). We deliberately do not publish fixed card stats or invented element rolls — those scale with your level and instance, so verify them on your own drop. See how we source drop data for details.
