Why is the raid Hand Cannon so awful?

Seriously. This thing is so bad, i got a decent roll with firefly so i thought, eh what the heck Ill try it out... Now Ill admit it looks badass and the reload animation is very cool, but wow... just, wow. Absolutely no range, longest reload ever, even with gloves perk. I compared it to my Imago Loop, and its significantly worse in every category besides fire rate (which it's close). This is supposed to be Endgame Loot? And on top of the massively overdone nerf to hand cannon effective range, it,s basically uselesz, especially in the Crucible. Is this how Bungie wanted things with the latest weapon balance patch? Hawkmoon and TLW being the only really solid HCs? Edit: Basically, the raid weapons are mostly mediocre (with the exception of the LMG and the pulse and the scout). They were apparently all designed to showcase this brilliant new perk cocoon, even though it can be made obsolete with better weapons/ strategies.

  • You think that's bad? The auto rifle is ungodly. The recoil is crazy, trying to control it makes it worse. There are very few good perks you can get, it is not good for the raid due to the insanely unreliable ability to hit critical points, and I get it all the time! I would kill for the hand cannon tbh
