So reading up on changes in the December update, can't help but notice, that your playtesting of said Hawkmoon must have been with players who just know how to handle a HC against players who can't PvP. Hawkmoon is an EXOTIC... Let that sink in for a minute, Bungie. What you are doing to it, wil make it worse than a Rare (/overexaggeration). It will not only make that gun useless in PvP (with that range drop?? Anyone with half a brain will use The Last Word instead...) but it will be absolute garbage in PvE as well... Especially with that already low ammo, I've no idea who in their right mind would use that for PvE. As for PvP though, I almost never get killed by one. If it was OP as you so very mistakenly suggest, It would be used in PvP way more. And even if it were, again - it's an exotic... You understand that we sacrifice an exotic slot for it, right? Doesn't seem like you do... Therefore I beg of you to understand what you are doing... You are destroying an Exotic weapon and making it only good for ascending. One of the very few hand cannons worth a damn... I beg of you not to go through with this. It's an exotic for a reason....
