I'm wondering, as I have a couple of legendary hand cannons that are not ideal, what others find to be the best hand cannons for the Crucible. All the exotics seem to absolutely dominate the HC field, more so than the other weapon classes.
The specific ones of mine I am thinking of are The Devil You Don't, which has only 5 rounds, and Timur's Lash (whatever the name is, the IB one), which seems to lack the needed rate of fire, despite being otherwise enjoyable.
So, anyone have any favorites other than the exotics?
It sounds like there are many good options.Maybe I should have asked about best hand cannon perks for Crucible.
[spoiler]A major factor definitely seems to be perks, where the reloading perks are definite favorites for this weapon type. That makes obvious sense.
Feeding Frenzy over Outcast, though the damage bonus is beneficial from either.
The other major perk mentioned seems to be Perfect Balance, with the somewhat similar Zen Moment in the running as well.
Third Eye also seems like a strong Crucible perk for any primary. [/spoiler]

Edited by The 7th fall: 5/6/2015 4:02:59 AMMy TFWPKY 1969 pistol: Rangefinder and Crowd Control with a choice of Perfect Balance, Snapshot and Field Scout. For PvP I go with Perfect Balance -sometimes Snapshot- because my pistol has 10 shots in the mag by default, and landing 3 consistent headshots is a lot easier when the stability is over halfway maxed out on that beauty.
