Weapon that fires a red laser?

[hornedchick.6841]

Weird question: I keep seeing something like a red laser beam being fired at boss events. It's just a thin line, temporary (as opposed to continuous) like an energy blast. I'm assuming it's from some sort of rifle, but I can never see what it's coming from.  Does anybody know what this is?  Thanks!

You might be seeing a skill, not a rifle skin.

 

Death's Judgement  which is a Deadeye rifle skill used from stealth

Probably the Death's Judgement skill.

 

If you see a little fireball projectile, that's from the legendary Predator.

 

I couldn't find any legendary animation vids that really capture it well (people tend to show you the animations without having a target, which ends up hiding some of the projectile effects), so here's some random person's gameplay video where you can see a Deadeye using Predator — Death's Judgement is the big attack after they go into stealth @ 3:35:

The "beam" is part of the normal animation, the big firey bullet is the legendary.

Hope maybe? (legendary Pistol)

Hmm... those are both pretty cool, but that's not quite what it looked like... it was just a thin red line. I'll have to see if I can get a pic next time I see it. Thanks for the videos though!

Are you playing in Drizzlewood coast? The dominion snipers will tag you with a red laser beam before firing.

Maybe it is a elite skill from holosmith -Prime Light Beam

Could be the icebrood Saga masteries too, depending on if you are out in those maps.
