I originally thought the idea of using Hand Cannons during the Raid was preposterous. During the Conflux defense I decided to goof off and use mine. Little did I know, it wrecked goblins in a single critical shot!! Enemies don't seem as many, when they are disposed of so quickly.
During the Final Atheon, supplicants can be killed before they can make it off the Timegate.
Edit: Thanks for the responses!!

Edit 3: Over 700 response!! Who's ready for the DLC content! Looking for info on Trials of Osiris Hand Cannon right now
4:I haven't used a Hand Cannon during the new raid yet. It seems impractical as Vex and VoC are the most effective so far; Vex more so. Firefly could backfire on Fatebringer given the aggressiveness of thralls.

Fatebringer rocks VoG. Believe it or not Found Verdict the raid shot gun is a beast against Praetorians and goblin trash.
-
I rerolled my timur's lash and it has crowd control and perfect balance now, things gonna be nasty
-
The impact on Timurs Lash (spelling?) It's ridiculous
-
People used to dislike handcannons because people think they are underpowered and the low fire rates. Look at destiny now, we re running around doing vanguard tiger, beating the raid in hope for hawkmoon and LW. Sniff* they grow up so fast
-
Which one you using? My Red Hand IX cuts vex in half. The only problem I have is its a bit slow on oracles.
-
I love hand cannons. I've got TLW before xûr...Red hand IX...TDYK...Lord High Fixer...Venation III. They are al awesome in their own way. Only one I really want to put my hands on is Fatebringer...I just can't get lucky enough to get it from that damn Templar. Venation III is really cool and powerful though and not many people have that hand cannon which makes it more special.

A whole new world!!! a whole new fantastic point of view!!![spoiler]Finish the song!!![/spoiler][spoiler]THEN PRAISE THE SUN!!!![/spoiler]

Fatebringer is a raid wrecking weapon. Combined with icebreaker during the confluxes / oracles and with gjallahorn during the rest of the raid.
-
dude…. hand cannons are -blam!-ing legit! i thought they were pointless! but now that i have several good hand cannons, i love hand cannons!
-
I use fatebringer during the raid I can solo oracles on hard nuff said
-
A new fantastic point of view?
-
HAWKMOON 1 shots everythingggggg. Even in hard.
-
Thats my favourite thing about Raiding with Thorn. The hobgoblins take one shot to kill with Thorn. Though without my reload perk armor anymore i've switched to The Last Word for Raids

Edited by JamesButlin: 11/21/2014 12:04:28 PMYep, fully upgraded Fatebringer = doom to all Vex! Absolutely destroys Edit: A WHOOOLE NEW WUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUURLD
-
Timur's Lash is [i]nice[/i]. Thorn is ok...
-
I love them and I pray daily to not suck at them so I can enjoy them more :< My potato aim needs to get better, but hopefully with some more practive I get there :)
-
My hawkmoon rocks!
-
I keep getting shit from certain level 30's on my old raid team for using handcannons through the raid. Not only would I have the most kills but least deaths as well and still be blamed for wipes due to the hunters lack of self rez.
-
The Last Word > Suros Regime. Seriously, the regime gets so much hate lately. But, TLW is waayyy better. 2 shot kills ftw.
-
I didn't care much for hand cannons, until I got Hawkmoon. Figured I'd try it out. I been hard pressed to use anything else since.

Edited by Archanfel80HUN: 11/21/2014 7:48:54 AMI was a huge auto rifle fan. But since im pretty good at aiming, and started to using auto rifles with very quick one bullet shooting, and then is just looted a simple rare handcannon...now i have many maxed out rare handcannon (sadly no legend or exo). I cant wait what will be Xür selling this weekend! Surely hand cannon need pretty good aiming, or you screwd, but if you can handle right its badass! I love to see during strikes when my teammates shoot a couple of bullets with his auto rifles and i just onehit weekspot most off every mob :) The only problematic mobs is the fast moving jumping mobs. Hard to get a good aim. In that case an auto rifle missed a lot of shot but some got some hit too. But i just use grenades for that bastards :) When this running, jumping, teleporting guys get a hit, they stopped for a moment. And that is my time for a onehit kill :) I just hope Xür is selling something usefull this week... ps.: im also very like scout rifles, but im not feel "yeah im badass" like with the hand canons :)

I was not big on hand cannons till I got hawkmoon and gave it a spin. I am in love with it.

I used The devil you know before it was cool
-
I have been using handcannons exclusively for the entire game. In the hands of an outlaw they are deadly weapons! Fatebringer, TDYK, redhand are the best imo.

hand Cannons can easily carry you through a raid if you know how to use them.
