Pearlescent rarity weapons
Pearlescent items are a new addition in Redux, and can only be found on Mayhem Level 6 or higher. The Pearlescent rarity replaces the Common rarity, meaning Common items will no longer drop in the player's game due to their addition. Pearlescents (or Pearls) serve as the new top tier Rarity in Redux, meaning the items you find in Pearlescent will most likely be stronger than any rarity below them.
About Pearlescent Items
- Most Pearlescent items are base game Legendaries which have been converted over, although some have been altered to function completely different. Guns like the Good Juju now fire fully automatically, as opposed to it's burst fire counterpart in base game.
- Most Pearlescent items can be obtained via a World Drop, although they are most commonly only available from their dedicated loot source.
- Pearlescent items can be also obtained through the Veteran Rewards machine in Sanctuary 3, provided the player is playing on Mayhem 6 or above.
- Assuming the player is not on Mayhem 6 and tries to purchase a Pearlescent from Earl's Machine, they'll instead be greeted by the Double Anarchy instead.

Notes
- In extremely rare cases, it is possible to obtain Pearlescent as early as level 2 due to a rare bug which is encountered within the Loot Pools. You can also obtain them the same way via the Diamond Loot Room
- In even rarer cases, it is possible to obtain Pearlescents from Vending Machines.
