Hawkmoon got eyasluna, so shouldn't Monte Carlo get the same?
As the title suggests, eyasluna is the lil brother to the hawkmoon. So I purpose that Monte Carlo get the same treatment, for instance since Monte Carlo looks/supposed to a weapon of elegance, the legendary should look more industrial, mean, and mitiaryish.
For example instead of white (other than its ornaments that the exotic can have) it look more like a matte gun metal gray, instead of the boxy magazine make it a curved magazine like the grim citizen/haakons hatchet autos, and the bayonet look more like it was optional rather than default.
Now for stats an perks!
Leave the base stats alone, but the perks being like every other legendary would make the Monte Carlo cousin more versatile. For instance I've noticed that its horizontal instability hurts it, it's a small pain to compensate but the thought of counterbalance an perfect balance sounds very appealing.
Don't get me wrong Monte Carlo is an awesome auto, but there are some things I'd like an I bet others would too that'd make it better.
If this said legendary version of Monte Carlo were to become a reality (preferably retaining a name to Chevrolet vehicles would be great) would seriously offer up an exotic slot an be a hell of an awesome gun!

Actually, it feels like hawk is lil bro of eyasluna, cause eyasluna is better.

Edited by Aulakauss: 10/25/2016 6:53:50 PMEven though the original Monte Carlo weapon wasn't actually named after the Chevy car, I'd totally welcome this naming convention (if only to confuse people lol) for a Legendary version. Call it 'The Silverado' and the flavor text could be [i]'Like a rock.'[/i] Also, remember Red Death got a Legendary too, at least in spirit. The Red Spectre?

The thing with the hawkmoon that caused it to get eyasluna was that it was its own archetype. There weren't any other handcannons with the same impact/rof profile. Mida was similar but now has the one or two alternatives with RoI. The iron banner scout is the same. Monte Carlo has many alternatives in the same mid rof, mid impact profile. It is a very unique looking weapon and has its exotic perk but is in no way unique as far as its archetype is concerned. Not that I would be opposed to this :).
