PVP Update Question for Veteran Handcannon Users
What do you veteran hand cannon users think of pulse rifles now that the patch has dropped?
Would you be willing to shelve your thorn/TLW/Hawkmoon for a Red Death? bad Juju?
Just curious to see what hand cannon users think of the time to kill of pulse rifles now that the update is live.
Based on what I've read... Pulse rifles seem like they are quite lethal now but not as lethal as hand cannons. However pulse rifles are more forgiving than hand cannons so ease of use seems like a positive factor.
Please give me your opinion hand cannon bros! I love my thorn but have yet to get a chance to hop into pvp after the patch to see what pulses can do now

3 RepliesI PVPed with Red Death yesterday because of the buff and was impressed and annoyed with how much damage it did. It will 3 shot body shot anyone that doesn't have a shield and 2 shot head. What makes me the most mad is that head shots do 108 damage that's about the same as the highest impact handcannon in the game with luck in the chamber/final round up. I hate the play of pulse rifles so I will keep my Thorn handy for pvp. But the best pvp er I know started using his Red Death instead of Thorn and his KD was around 5 all night when it's usually 2.5-3.5 do to the healing perk on Red Death.
