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.

if you noticed all adaptive frame weaponry in this game have the smallest difference between crit kills and body shot kills. 140 rof (adaptive) handcannons have optimal time to kill of 2 crit 2 body as example. all handcannons have 5 shot body shot kills. meanwhile 110 requires 3 headshots for optimal TTK and fast ROF handcannons i believe was 3 headshots and a body. Thus adaptive handcannons are easiest to use. reason people use better devils is not because its strictly better, that would probably go to old fashioned in that archetype, no its used because of explosive rounds, even then it only extends its effective lethality a few yards.
