[b]Confidant – Exotic Handcannon[/b]
FLAVOR TEXT: I have something to tell you, a secret.
COSMETIC DESIGN: Eh. Didn’t have any ideas for this one. I’d appreciate yours, though!
STATS: 90 impact, 56 stability, 79 range, 60 handling, 50 reload speed, 9 rounds.
PERKS: Secrets (reviving a downed Guardian grants increased melee damage), Trustworthy Weapon (last three rounds of magazine deal increased damage).
HOW TO EARN CATALYST: Complete a quest from Shaw Han.
CATALYST: Stability increased to 65. Reload speed increased to 60. Trustworthy Weapon extends to the last four rounds.
LORE: Shaw Han kneels near the Fallen corpse. He sniffs and touches some of the ether that had pooled near the head of the creature. The ether was red; someone’s blood had mixed with it. His ally.
He enters the Fallen cave, marked with a Lost Sector symbol by the Vanguard. He doesn’t even glance at it as he passes. He fingers the trigger of his rifle as he advances cautiously, silently. He hears the sound of Fallen dregs further below, awaiting him.
But then the shrieks are cut short by gunfire. Shaw moves more quickly now, hoping for the best and preparing his Light. More gunfire.
He finally reaches the source of the sounds, and holds his rifle up at the head of a Guardian stabbing a Vandal. “Thought I’d find you here.”
The Guardian—a Titan—turns to face Shaw, and throws the knife to the ground. “Didn't know you were going to be.”
“Zavala knew you were here too. That’s why he sent me to the Cosmodrome.” Shaw sniffed. “He wanted us to get…reacquainted.”
“Heh.” Roland Han removes his helmet, whipping short black hair out of his face. He smiles at Shaw. “Been too long, brother.”
Edit: This post was less an appeal for another Handcannon and more for the lore reading as well as perk dissection. I was really surprised I got so much backlash.

1 RespuestaEditado por SYKEVANDAL: 3/8/2021 4:02:52 PMCreative. Neato. Do you know that there are more Handcannons in this game than any other weapon type? There are 65 by my count in the collections library: 8 Exotic 42 Legendary 9 Rare 4 Uncommon 2 White In some cases, there are more handcannons than all weapons of multiple types combined. For example: there are more Handcannons than Bows, Machineguns and Grenade Launchers combined. We need another Handcannon or Sidearm like we need a Scorn-based Raid Dungeon.

No. More. Hand cannons

2 RespuestasEditado por CJ: 3/9/2021 3:20:42 AMOh, yeah. Just what we need in a high-impact hand cannon meta, ANOTHER Exotic hand cannon. Get out of here with that.
-
just wait for it to get nerfed by September and been given away in the Kiosk

4 Respuestas90 impact I assume this is a 120? if the last 3 rounds has increased damage will this be a 2 shots kill with no requirements in pvp? I really like the lore I just wish this is a pulse or smg, I think it makes more sense that shaw's weapon is for pve

1 RespuestaThe last thing we need is ANOTHER exotic hand cannon. Think more, post less.

4 RespuestasWe have enough hand cannons. But out of curiosity, some questions: - What element? - What RoF? You say 90 impact, do you mean a 120 rpm then? - How long would the melee damage buff last? How much does it increase damage? - How much increased damage do the final rounds deal? - Would you be concerned that Lucky Pants would possibly make this over-powered? - Why do the exotic perks have nothing to do with each other? Have you considered adding "melee kills load 4 rounds into the magazine"? It would tie the two traits together nicely
-
So like a 120 that has 2 quaranteed two taps just because and is just trash in PvE? Naaah bruh.
-
2 RespuestasSorry man but nobody wants more exotic handcannons. We want more individual cool legendaries
-
This is a great idea but everybody here is just whining about how op handcannons are, this sounds honestly dope

5 RespuestasNo last thing the game needs is another stupid exotic noobcannon.
