Hawkmoon Hot take
Hawkmoon is a great gun in D2. The quest is fun it makes sense as to why it isn't exactly D1 Hawkmoon. It rewards skill. It's also just fun and exciting to use to get dat sweet sweet one tap. It also shreads in pve I used it yesterday in a master nightfall and it was great.
I feel like you're testing your own waters to see if bringing back D1 guns changed is ok. I feel as long as you explain it through a good quest it's fine and the perk pays homage to the original like Hawkmoon still one shoting.
The random rolls remind me of the choice ones you had on D1 exotics. It also makes me want to grind for a better Hawkmoon like exotic armor. I like that too and feel your also testing waters with that.
Next this is a side note. The next exotic I feel you could bring back and change due to its D1 lore is ice breaker. As the original one we used was a prototype. I even believe it says it in its lore card from D1. Bring back the full version and give it a spin. Like idk focus on combustion instead of regenerative ammo. Like the engineering team making ice breaker found the regenerative explosive ammo had a chance to blow you up so they made the explosion more powerful and made it take ammo idk just spitballing here. You could go wild with this.

Hawkmoon is bae

4 RepliesI don't understand why people are praising the design choices behind D2 Hawkmoon. For one, Random Rolls? No random crits? Only 8 in the mag? It's not even close to the original Hawkmoon. It should've been an entirely new weapon. Secondly, it has no use in endgame PvE. In PvP, you might as well just use Ace of Spades and get more consistent benefits if you're going to put that much effort into getting headshots. Getting watered-down versions of old gear is [b]not[/b] something to be happy for.

1 ReplyFor me, there's just never going to be a situation where this will be my choice for PvE or PvP, there's just better options. Perhaps a catalyst will change that. Having said that, if you enjoy it, awesome. That's the point of games, to enjoy them.

1 ReplyIs it DPS meta? Then nope, has zero value. Its not even fun to use like EOT.

4 RepliesI'm in love with how Hawkmoon is in D2 I honestly think it's much better than its D1 version I agree with the idea of icebreaker getting the same sort if treatment that Hawkmoon got however they will need to remove the regenerative ammo from otherwise it will screw up the special ammo economy more than it already is

3 RepliesIce breaker needs to return and its original form with “whispered breathing” And make it have a taken skin

Edited by an Ape with a d2 addiction: 12/11/2020 1:34:40 PMWhen the random rolls become available and if they are as presented in the API right now as in barrels + grips are also random, then a roll like: Rangefinder + corkscrew + polymer grip hawkmoon with effective 70-ish range (rangefinder bonus), 71 stability, 87 handling (= practical quickdraw), the extra 3-tap range from rangefinder's extra zoom and 93 aim assist AND perfect recoil direction is gonna be pretty much the best performing 140 hand cannon in the game. That's before the exotic perk's even accounted for. It's a perfect gun if you ignore not having icarus and the small mag. Dont get why folks're hating on it. [spoiler]Still gonna be stuck on my sunshot though. Another resident sleeper.[/spoiler]

2 RepliesEdited by Mr Jim Lahey: 12/11/2020 2:05:01 PMBring back icebreaker, but don’t allow it in pvp. Let’s test that water as well. I imagine, bungie would make more OP exotics if they had a pvp ban on em.

4 RepliesDoes it out “shred” Lament in PVE? No? Not worth the exotic slot
