As we all know the most recent patch made to destiny nerfed handcannons now making them almost completely unusable in PVP and PVE (besides the Hawkmoon at the moment). I do also agree that The Last Word, Thorn, and Hawkmoon needed the nerf but that being said, the rest of the handcannons didnt. Back when Suros reigned supreme in the Crucible it wasnt just the Suros that was being used, i saw many other Auto Rifles in the hands of Guardians but when the Thorn reigned supreme thats all we saw, rarely did we see any other handcannons that weren't Thorn, Last Word, and Hawkmoon. My suggestion to a buff is simple, keep the range nerf, increase the recoil, but make all handcannons fire as fast as the Guardian can pull the trigger or at least increase the rate of fire. If Handcannons are only meant for Close to Medium range then it needs to at least compete with similar ranged classes. (shotguns being the preferred close ranged weapon and Auto Rifles being the preferred medium ranged weapons) The small magazine and reload speed will be punishing if Guardians just try unleash a hellstorm of bullets without compensating the high recoil. What thoughts do you guys have, feel free to voice you opinion non aggressively
