Randal the Vandal

Randal the Vandal is the fan nickname given to a Level 8 Fallen Reaver Vandal who spawns from final right-side cave of the Forgotten Shore. Due to a glitch, this Vandal sometimes spawned with HP, Defense and Attack Ratings higher even than a Public Event Major, making him extraordinarily difficult to defeat. At one time, his stats were such that it was claimed even a full magazine of Gjallarhorn rockets would only reduce his life by about half, and there are many YouTube videos posted by players who encountered him either knowingly or unknowingly.

Bungie at one point removed the glitch, making it a normal Vandal spawn, but as of the House of Wolves DLC, Randal will randomly spawn with his old stats intact.
