The first curse
I feel that the hand cannon is pretty balanced but I think it needs just a little bit added to the fire rate. I feel like to many encounters that I get the first shoot off and have no answer to pluse and auto rifles. Many of those encounters feel like you have the Upper Hand but to slow on the 3rd shoot with the fire rate to finish the job.

9 RepliesNo offence, but I think you (and the bulk of folks that replied) are using the gun wrong. It's not a Hawkmoon, nor Last Word so don't try to use it like those. You [b]MUST [/b]play to it's strengths. It's very accurate and every shot hit's like a truck. The downside is it fires slow. Therefore don't to try to go toe to toe with folks while using that gun. If you get a headshot, it's a 2 shot gun. Get that headshot. If you are out in the open, shooting this gun...then you are using it wrong. You'll get chewed apart by everything, especially a multi-tool. You wanna shoot and step completely behind cover. If you got the headshot, wait a split second, pop back out and shoot them anywhere. If you didn't get the headshot, make sure you do the next shot. When you got a [b]headshot kill[/b]...DON'T RELOAD THE DAMN GUN. Say that to yourself over and over if need be. The First Curse buff applies stability and range boosts. The First Curse Buff combined with Deadeye is when the fun comes in. Get that scout rifle range. If you reload like a dork, you'll lose the buff. And you'll regret it. Good luck.

I've been using it since I got it which was as soon as possible and it's fine I got a triple kill with 1 clip the other day just make sure u hit those headshots
-
Fire rate is fine just more range. It is a long distance hand cannon that,rewards a skilled hand.
-
Amazing gun. Love this Hand Cannon.

Edited by Ankokuseibutsu: 7/27/2016 7:25:30 PMIt's the best gun in the game for me. You have to take the time to learn the limitations and situations in which to engage with it. I've gotten a breaker using only first curse. And recently unbrokens on a regular basis. Not bragging just saying you should youtube content of players who do well with it such as myself or justjason to learn where and how to engage with it. It's not meant to be used out in the open. Cover is your friend. That's tip number one. The rate of fire and impact mean for you to step in and out between shots or at least be in a position to take first shot via crouching or flanking. I've used it almost exclusively for 4 months or more now. It's a beast once you unlock its potential.

4 RepliesEdited by GigaMode: 7/27/2016 3:57:06 AMBuff the damage so it's a 2-shotter. Nerf the rof some if you have to, in order to match the TTK with other HCs. I'm not seeing the logic in using one that has almost half the rof as others while still requiring the same amount of shots for a kill. But hey, this is Bungo we're talking about.

It works fine for me

3 RepliesWhy use the first curse when you can use the imprecation. Pfft. Same amount of trash with less work involved
-
Oh. The gun. I thought you were talking about Destiny. haha

From my opinion I guess the weapon is balanced when it comes to the ROF and impact, increasing the ROF will affect the Metta of the weapon and it would be unfair, later on you will find everyone using it. I guess the solution is to reduce the recoil since the weapon is having a great recoil which require some time to acquire the target after every shot, if they reduce the recoil that would be much effective without ruining the weapon.

It needs a stability buff if anything. Otherwise it would be the go to hc all over as it is a beast as it stands
-
That's its curse.
-
A high hitting hand cannon with a high fire rate would be cool but ridiculous because imagine how fast you could body shot someone to death.
-
2 RepliesIt's usually a 3 shot kill, like most other hand cannons but, I can get 3 shots off faster with my finalas peril or eyasluna
-
3 RepliesLol a little added to its fire rate. It would be op if it was in the next tier of hc
-
No, this archetype has been here since vanilla. Like it or don't like it. Simple as that.
-
I agree on the fire rate. It is a great gun. Not very often but I do get two shot kills with it. But it's mostly useless again someone who can stay on target as well as you can. That fire rate is gonna get you killed.

7 RepliesMust be extremely accurate and pull off head shots if you ever want this weapon to work in your favor, I would know.
