It really is bullshit how they nerfed Hawkmoon. Who the -blam!- at Bungie thought these balances were smart? Thorn has higher range, faster RoF, and does more damage per shot. Why even use Hawkmoon? The reason Hawkmoon was so good was because of the 2 shot kill it could pull off. Now if you are anywhere outside of hugging room, which TLW dominates, you cannot 2 shot. Bungie must have some of the stupidest play testers.

Just rename it Hugroom and we're good.

Edited by hjoshua09: 2/15/2016 2:08:40 PMOh my god, so much this. I don't like to hate on them, but dear god they done goofed. I remember them stating that when they play tested for the most recent weapon patch, that Hawkmoon was being used over every other Hand Cannon. Clearly they did not use Thorn or The Last Word. Like, it is so obvious! Thorn>Hawkmoon at range, and TLW>Hawkmoon at cqc. Honestly The First Curse is just a train wreck so they shouldn't even consider it when balancing Hand Cannons. It's too slow to ever be the "best" Hand Cannon option.

Yeah, they really should up the stability and the fire rate just a smidge. Then it would be a really good gun. Right now, its good in someones hands who can consistently hit headshots under fire. Me? I am good with it sometimes, others... not so much.
