So if hand cannon's aren't overpowered..
Then why is it every pvp game you go in, 90% of the time the guy with most kills is using one? Or why so many people use it and the same ones.
Or is it just everytime someone makes a post about it that handcannon noobs just shit themselves and go ballistic for fear of nerf?
- This is a proper question, and soooo many idiots replying abuse thinking it's a call for nerf thread like their mamma's been insulted. Thank you to those who aren't afraid/have common sense to answer!
- By this question, Legendary handcannons take skill to use and are not to be mixed with the obvious ones
WILKOMMEN TO HANDCANNON BANNER!!!!!

1 ReplyThey're not. I just pulled a 5.0 using suros on my 31 hunter.

The exotics are OP for sure. Idc if they get nerfed or not though because i generally can beat them. The legendaries are either fine or need a buff, depends on which one you're talking about.
-
Handcannons are one of the few weppons in this game that reword high skill players(excluding exotics). So when you run across someone using a legendary handcannon and they kill you it was because they where better then you not the weapon choice.

9 RepliesI think hand cannons don't need nerf. Rather Autos and scouts need a buff.

Scout rifle here, run the Fang and can turn out some pretty good games.
-
Thorn and Last word need a debuff. Pulse rifles need a small debuff. Auto's need a tiny buff. If all of these changes take in effect, scouts need nothing. Legendary hand cannons are fine where they are, but thorn and last word are ridiculously over powered. Thorn is a two shot if you land nth head shots. [b]Which is ridiculously easy because the aim assist on tear guns is insane.[/b] Last word needs a smaller debuff. I understand that it needs to be a certain amount of powerful but it just outclasses everything else right now.

4 RepliesHonestly, I just wanna use my Shadow Price. But after nerfs and buffs, that's a no go. So the default weapon for me is Last Word. And anyone who uses Thorn can go suck a d!ck :)
-
No actually it's like 50% of the time the person in first is using a hand cannon, the other half is pulse rifle users
-
Says the dude with no HC's and a million snipers lmao
-
Tl;dr. Having to disclose that this "isn't just another nerf thread" smells of unskilled player and nerf thread.
-
Maybe they are god with a hand cannon
-
They are fun to use, quit the crying
-
I'm not seeing a lot of hand cannons, at least not as many as I thought I'd see. What I have noticed is the top player is usually laggy.. Coincidence? Maybe they should nerf the lag...
-
It's not op It's just everything has been nerf so bad they seem op

1 ReplyPvP is always dominated by the last good weapon Xur sold. TLW just happens to be that one right now, and Thorn has always been a nuisance there. When Xur sold Red Death, that gun was literally everywhere and everyone complained about it. Just give it a while and this, too, will pass.
-
Nah, I see plenty of Red Deaths and Vex players dominating. Scout Rifles are just Scout Rifles, you rarely see them and I think they got the bum deal. You can't really buff those can you though?
-
1 ReplyBungie has done that by nerfs. you never heard about handcannons being op before the ar nerf etc. for example if they nerf the handcannon to the grouund like they did ar's then pulse rifles will dominate, i see alot of people complain about thorns two shot potential but red death can two burst kill too. No more nerfs man , buff everything else back to the way they were
-
Its the only gun anymore that has impact which is the only factor in normal PvP
-
Hand cannons are not overpowered. They are just plain powerful. I myself am not a fan of them but I understand why people like them and also why many people think they are op. It's a CANNON. In your hand.

2 RepliesThe games I have played lately switched to Red Death and Vex.

1 ReplyWell there called hand "cannons"

4 RepliesEdited by Elitespear: 4/30/2015 7:11:14 PMProbably because they reward precision more than any other weapon type. So if you have someone good using one, they're gonna kill faster. That being said, certain exotic handcannons are OP. It's as simple as that, any honest pvper knows theres hardly any gun that can compete with them.
-
4 RepliesEdited by Jesus Christ: 4/30/2015 6:57:55 PMI wouldn't say it is hand cannons I'd say it's exotic hand cannons. They just have amazing perks on them that makes them lethal. I don't think I've been killed by one red hand, Timurs lash, venation 3, chance, tdyd, or tmph(sp?).
