I finally found a Hand Cannon that I actually really enjoy in Destiny 2!

So, I [i]liked[/i] Hand Cannons in D1. They were a nice break from the normal Scout Rifles I'd usually run with, but they never performed well enough to be my "go to" weapon class. In Destiny 2, I've found pretty much every Hand Cannon that I would find to be severely lacking when compared to the efficacy of HC's in D1, thus I wasn't using HC's in D2 except as infusion fodder. All that changed last night when I found the Sun Shot. Holy. Shit. This particular Hand Cannon is fun as hell! It's an Exotic Energy Weapon Solar Hand Cannon. It's got a sub-2-second reload, it fires fast, it's accurate (even at range), and it hits... well, it's a goddamn nail driver. Plus, it has the Firefly effect, but without the necessity for a Crit to proc the Firefly effect! As long as you kill the enemy, you still get the Solar explosion, even if you kill them with a body shot. To wrap this up, this is one of the rare weapons that give me hope for this game. Don't change a single goddamn thing about this Hand Cannon, Bungie! It's perfect "as is", because it's [i]FUN[/i]! If any of you find it (I got mine from a Chest at the end of an Adventure on Io), I think you'll love it. :)

  • Love that gun in PvE. Even my brother who is not a fan of hand cannons is having a blast with it. I hope "for the love of god" that they leave this gun alone. I can't help hearing Mr. Torgue from Borderlands 2 saying "EXPLOSIONS" everytime I use it.
