Anyone have a problem with Handcannon shots not registering?

Been having a bit of trouble every once in awhile with this. Wondering if I'm just off my game or if anyone else has this problem. I'll shoot and swear I see the bullet connect but they take no damage. *EDIT: For those saying I should just pace my shots - Trust me. I do. My problem isn't pacing. It's that my headshots don't register sometimes even when I do. Or sometimes you don't have the option of pacing because every other weapon type will kill you too fast. I'll get shot 4 to 5 times with MIDA at ANY range before I can fire off more than 1 or 2 shots.

  • Lately I've been having problems with quite a few things not registering on destiny 3oc not working correctly. Heavy not doing correct damage. Getting wrecked by 3 bullets in pve. Stupid stuff like that

  • I feel like if you are firing before your gun has a chance to recover from its recoil you probably should miss.....that's probably what the ghost bullets are intended to show. You try rapidly firing a high caliber sidearm and see how accurate you are.

  • I can't use HC's to save my life anymore. Those 4x 6 match kills as part of crucible quest were my 1st time in PVP for a long time. I'll stick to pulse & autos!!

  • Hasn't this been talked about for months and months? Haven't I seen this post 100 times already? [spoiler]You're one of 7 billion people on the planet, of course you're not the only to do anything. Especially posting about "ghost" or "phantom" bullets. We know it's a problem and sucks. We know.

  • Yes, and moderators have come forth before to say your shot just didn't hit the target... I use explosive rounds on my Eyasluna, I see them blow up on my enemy but no damage registers, constantly.

  • It's a cone starting from your barrel to the target. The farther away the target is, the bigger the cone and the more likely a shot will go wide. It's difficult to pace but slow steady shots can still outgun things if you're within that range, especially if you're strafing and they miss a shot or two.

  • I have that problem too, especially hawkmoon. I don't know why but even when I pace my shots I feel as if some of my bullets don't hit.

    I recommend getting an Eyasluna with braced frame and then some good perks but braced frame gives that gun like 95-98 stability and the base range is already decent. Best HC I've ever used. Still have phantom bullets or whatever you wanna call them but it happens way less with this gun. I'm trying to get one with Outlaw, BF, and Sureshot. The one I have now is a monster and it could be better. Stability over range all day!

    • The ' bloom' is a (somewhat) accurate model of how real handguns operate. Single grip weapons are far more sensitive to small changes in trigger force, grip pressure, etc. than dual grip weapons like rifles. This behavior manifests itself as the group size on your target. The better the shooter, the smaller the group. When you are in a stressful situation like a competition (or combat) that group size will grow. If you shoot large groups but aim at a small target (like the head) then you will miss - even if your sights are dead on. Context: I shoot handguns competitively and am a much better shot in real life than I am in Destiny.

      • Yeah, high stability or range seems to help.
