Crota's Word pistol needs fixing
Here's a rundown of just how Bungie didn't bother to test this when it's very simple:
-Reason why explosive rounds cancel out the bonus is because it is counted as a normal hit
-Explosive rounds cancel out the Phatom Gift bonus against EVERY form of enemy, so no extra bullet after three critical hits.
-The Hive Disruptor cancels out the Phatom Gift when used against armored Hive -just like the Black Hammer-
So in order to keep the bonus against most enemy types you gotta go with Hammer Forged or Speed Reload. Bungie, how did you not see this was gonna happen? You had months of overhyping hard mode and showcasing the loot, and you didn't even in the least take off Hive Disruptor for the pistol like you did the Black Hammer.
I know people will say "Oh you could just as easily use the other two bonuses", but the fact that one skill tree bonus cancels out the pistol's main bonus against EVERY enemy type is just... wow Bungie, just wow.

I done 3 precision hits and got no round back so i started testing it gave me 2 back by the time i used 9

I agree, I love the gun but have trouble coping with the fact that I can't use explosive rounds without canceling the main perk of the gun. I usually end up switching between explosive rounds and hammer forged depending on what I'm doing.

1 ReplyWhen they patch the hand cannons again they are totally useless i think bungie wanna destroy their own game

There are pistols in this game?

3 RepliesHive disruptor does not cancel out phantom gift whatsoever. Check again bud. The gun doesn't need to be touched. Everyone thinks every raid Handcannon is gonna have firefly lol. Don't we have enough of these crying posts? Just comment on another stop wasting space.

Typical Bungie. They won't bother fixing this for quite a while, if ever, but will fix "cheeses" asap. Bungie is turning out to be a very disappointing studio, despite Destiny's awesome potential. -Imho.

5 RepliesIt's funny though, because they still haven't fixed the Black Hammer.
-
I honestly love it on my hunter with hammer forged. Reloads so fast if I stack the reload speed perk(forget what it's called)
-
1 ReplyHammer Forged is arguably the better perk anyway if you want it to be an all-around useful weapon.
-
2 RepliesI'm not particularly worried about getting more than 12 bullets, I would like a fix but I'm not to worried about it as I'd rather have explosive rounds as my perk anyway unless the gun had 7 bullet clips or something.

Good to know, leveling up the word now.
