So after using a gunslinger for more time than my main titan with handcannon (just bc i think its cool having a handcannon primary & super) they are very... crap.
I tried a big number of times using it, but i get outplayed by everything.
Sure i can win some 1v1 but still.
The recoil on handcannons are just a fancy / annoying / useless animation, because i can counter it with my stick and my finger but for why? Why, if i can't shoot in that time of the recoil animation? You have to wait to get the next shot and by that time if you missed 1 shot you are dead meat.
so i went back to using a automatic assault rifle, (after a LONG time) and out of nowhere i started getting doubles kills, guardians falling like insects against my full auto.
The kick/ recoil on assault rifles is a rewarding and challenging thing, i get used to pull back the R3 to tame the recoil so my shots that start going up get still in the place i want.
But with the unforgiving magazine, stability and rate of fire of the handcannons... no just nope.
Let me use my premonition skills now
[i]"bro just use the last word!"[/i] my exotic slot is used, the last word is very good because of fire rate and the stability perk, but i m looking for a decent legendary handcannon that seems to be non existent.

1 ReplyThe Palindrome from the crucible vendor will tell you differently, the roll it has is quality, as will the Iron Banner hand cannon 'Lingering Song'. I have never been a handcannon user, I have always been a scout fan and I am not a pvp regular, but these two have been awesome in for me. If they can do this kind of damage in my hands, then a handcannon regular should have no trouble.

1 ReplyNothing against you but you gotta use the right perks and sights that work the best. Sometimes your handcannon will feel terrible but if you mess around with the sights or other perks it could feel great.

3 RepliesDude I was with you on this subject, until.... go check out the roll I got on ill will handcannon. It's on my warlock. Would go as far to say with the roll I have it's the best primary in the game. I'm telling you it's like year 1 hand cannons all over again. So go try and get you 1 like mine if you enjoy using handcannons.

Want a good handcannon? Get one with rifled barrel. Great one? Rifled barrel and rangefinder.

this is easy, you are playing in a low sbmm and don't know how to use a hand cannon.

People who are good with hand cannons(not me), can wreck shit

1 ReplyPalindrome from the crucible vendor. It's really good, but you need to learn hand cannon discipline. This means letting your hand cannon level out before taking your next shot. It takes practice, but it is very useful once you understand how to use it properly.
-
When all else failed last night I whipped out Eyasluna. It was my lowest leveled primary and guess what? Things immediately improved. Funny part about that is I'm not really a hand cannon guy. If you get the right one, they are very, very good right now.
-
There are so many good legendary hand cannons. I don't even know what to say, dude. Are you playing the same game as everyone else?

Lol they kill in 3 shots sometimes even 2. How could they possibly buff them without them becoming op
