A hand cannon by virtue of it's nature (that of a powerhouse) should be an unwieldy beast. Shining at mid range, lethal with a skilled hand at long, and wanting in cqb (with exception of tlw). At least that's my interpretation of hand cannons.

  • HC should be deadly short to mid, and cqc, but highly ineffective at ranges over 50m-75m. A Desert Eagle is a HC, but no soldier would use to engage an enemy at even at 50m, maybe for 1v1, but 1v4 that shotgun or auto: not to mention w/ ar you can engage effectively at 100m+ esp. w/clear field of fire.

  • If you're talking realism, HCs would do a fraction of the damage an AR does. Handguns are sidearms, rifles primaries. Bungie isn't concerned with realism, just play balance (rightly so, since Destiny isn't a mil-sim).

  • You make a good point. I believe they'll give a soft buff to ar's in the near future to make them viable again.
