Best Sidearm in Destiny?!
I'm searching for a good legendary sidearm, but I don't know what's the best legendary sidearm. Help?
-
I like my New Monarchy one...the Impreacher V. It has SureShot IS, High Caliber Rounds, Fitted Stock and Hidden Hand. Hits hard and Fast
-
All I see is Dregs Promise and Mor Dregs Promise, but honestly, Trespasser will shit on your parade.
-
The havoc pigon is one of the best sidearms and it has hit scan
-
How good is a wormwood with HcR, cascade, and rangefinder Also has lightweight and hand loaded.
-
Dreg's Promise. You don't even have to aim!

Tips for a great sidearm: Rangefinder High caliber rounds Anything to improve stability Strong target acquisition sights I've been rocking Sidearms in pvp for a couple of months, and this is probably the most effective, consistent perk setup I've found. Not noticed a massive difference between the various rate of fire types. To be fair, you could probably drop high caliber rounds as you could argue that the range that they would proc within would be negligible to a mid ranged opponent, but I like to think it has helped me in a bind (that, or my opponents had useless aim!). And to agree with everyone else, NM conviction II and iron wreath were beastly if you got them. I'm also loving blinding blaze (new iron banner sidearm) Hot swap and crowd control are very situational, so I personally avoid for my playstyle. Also, stability is a must over range. You'll most likely be using a sidearm at close to mid range to counter shotgun rushers, the last thing you want is to be spamming the trigger and missing shots. This is just my opinion. I'd be interested to hear anyone/everyone else's thoughts on what great rolls they're having success with, and why. After all, we're all here out of curiosity, right?

Ironwreath-D from TTK's Iron Banner was a beast. If there's a way of obtaining it again, I recommend it. In its place, though, I'd say Jabberhäkke from Vanguard is also damn good. Though, you can only get those from packages now, I do believe.

Teacup Tempest, with the right roll, is a wrecking machine. I'm pretty sure it has one of the highest, if not the highest, Impact of the sidearms. RoF is high enough to dump a mag as fast as you can pull the trigger. Mine has Range finder, Zen movement, high caliber rounds and Truesight IS. The range perk keeps it outside of shotty range, unless they have a double range perk. The impact + high caliber rounds make it a flinch machine and the stability lets you keep those shots on the head.

Vendor roll Wormwood from FWC is ridiculously good.

What about Crow Eye?
-
Probably havoc pigeon. If you can find one. Trespasser is good too
-
2 RepliesNot one of those girly silenced sidearms. Be a man and get a Hakke sidearm.
-
The wormwood with Any sight of your choosing HcR Hand Loaded Rangefinder This gun with this roll is better than any matador or other shotty.

The original Colt .45

M1911

Crows eye

I really enjoyed using The Wormwood Sidearm from Future War Cult this Iron Banner (I'm not a sniper or a shot gunner in PVP) It hits hard shoots fast up close.
-
Given how powerful the new IB Sidearm is, I have high hopes for ZEAL VECTOR~.
-
The IB one is pretty nice. The Teacup Tempest does the most damage of any sidearm, I believe. Personally not a big fan of the super high ROF sidearms. The IB one seems to suit me nicely.
-
4 RepliesJabberhakke with reactive reload and something to speed up reload after a kill is the best roll imo. High caliber rounds is a nice bonus to.
