Hello.
Playing crucible for so long i found pretty embarrassing fact that there is no real diversity in weapons preferred by players especially when it comes to hand cannons.
Really quite often I experienced whole teams equipped with better devils.
And it is quite obvious why. Because this hand cannon really stands out of all the other ones in practice because it has just the best non critical damage (because of explosive rounds), great handling, stability and reload speed.
I hate this weapon because it is not a match for anything else and I do not use it because just everybody use it. Please nerf this weapon and bring more diversity in the realm of hand cannons.
Thanks.

Edited by SpaceCat: 2/1/2018 3:28:05 AMI agree it needs to be nerfed as it accounts for 75% of my deaths in Crucible. Where most pro-nerfers think that the damage should be dropped, I disagree. Instead, the range/falloff should be drastically decreased. A hand cannon is meant to be used at mid-range. However, this weapon can compete with long range weapons around 45 to 60 yards. That is absolutely ridiculous. The explosive rounds have no falloff damage - fine - but, the range stat should be dropped from 46 to about (roughly) 30.
