I do amazing with my lord high fixer as it is. Any sort of buff would just make it unfair :P
But seriously I have been using a handcannon only for the last couple of months and I have been doing amazing with it in crucible, better than ever. The only time I see ghost bullets is when I am shooting outside of its intended range or not timing my shots correctly.
Currently handcannons can outgun most primaries if you are skilled with one.
I am not saying they dont exist. I am saying the only time I see ghost bullets is when I am shooting outside of its intended range or not timing my shots correctly.
I play crucible for atleast 2-4 hours a day and have done well using a handcannons. I feel like I have the experience with them to have a valid opinion. Most people I have seen complaining about ghost bullets try a handcannon for a couple of games and spam the trigger/dont use them as intended... then come and complain about ghost bullets. You have to use them quite differently than in year 1. They are no longer long range weapons that you can shoot as fast as you can and still hit shots.
If I'm skilled enough to compensate for recoil and place my sights back on target as fast as the gun can fire, I shouldn't miss because of ring. Increase recoil lengthening the time to reacquire the target if need be but don't get chance involved.
