With hand cannons getting buffed, I decided to pull out Erianas Vow, and while it's not bad in most content, it's serious lacking in harder content.
In this week's GM with solar burn active, you can't even 1 shot a barrier champions sheild. Meanwhile, a primary like wishender can 1 shot them. Even with the 1st glance buff active, I was only dealing about 15k per crit.
On top of that, it only holds 30 ammo while rocket sidearms hold 49, and they deal roughly the same damage and have the same range.
In short, I feel like EV should either get a 100% damage buff vs. champions, bosses, and mini bosses, or apply 40 scorch per crit, allowing for ignitions to buff its damage. Additionally, it needs a 30% buff to reserves.

1 ReplyWith how hard Hand Cannons are hitting now in PvE, i’m surprised Eriana’s Vow didn’t get the treatment.

Just one of many oversights

The fact that it can't one-shot a barrier while a legendary special ammo sidearm can, is pretty telling. I love using it but it's absolutely too weak for end game. Bungie needs to buff it to break shields properly.
