Destiny 2 INSANE New Hand Cannon Hawkmoon on this Destiny 2 Beyond Light Weapon Review. Today’s video is a weapon review of the Hawkmoon exotic hand cannon. I go into detail about this incredible exotic hand cannon and hopefully, you will agree that it’s one of the best pvp and pve exotic hand cannons in Destiny 2. I specifically go over the hand cannon perks for PvE and PvP. I also talk about the optimal TTK or Time To Kill for Hawkmoon as it compares to other major guns.
In PvE, it feels like an average HC with decent stats but shorter range. However, the special perk really changes it a lot. Normally I try to avoid weapons that are mediocre versions of another ammo type. Generally, special ammo weapons are almost always better than primaries at DPS and major killing. We also have a lot of very strong exotic special and heavy ammo options these days. This weapon has me conflicted. With PS x7 it does between a slug shotty with Recombination x10 and Izi Honed Edge x4 damage. For reference, the PS x1 = 4x ,PS x6 = 12x, and PS x7 = 18x. It isn’t hard to set up and easy to keep at 2 shots while using other weapons. It can be used as a special damage option similar to Izi use but with much higher total ammo. You can stack that with your special’s ammo for much longer-lasting special ammo tier damage. Ex: Hawkmoon, FILO, Guillotine, low range but HIGH total ammo damage and DPS. A great build option from Eroar linked in the description that helps mitigate the “average” HC feel of the first 7 shots.
In PvP, it competes very well against all of the meta. Some people have even told me that they think it’s a top 3 option and the #1 best PvP HC. There are 3 main reasons that this gun is so strong in PvP.
Firstly, its stats are very strong with very high handling, near perfect recoil direction, and near maxed out aim assistance. Unfortunately, the range isn’t as high as Ace or many scouts and pulse rifles in the meta, but it doesn’t seem to impact it as much as I thought it would. Secondly, its special perk PS can be triggered to get a one-shot headshot with PS x6, a one-shot body shot with PS x7, or a 2 shot with PS x4-5. The general flowchart is to have 2 winning fights with your first 6-7 shots, where 3 headshots kill any normal guardian, and then one-shot the next enemy. Alternatively have 1 fight and 2-shot the next enemy. An odd thing about this gun is the smaller clip is actually an advantage to get to the final round faster. Thirdly, the second, fourth, and fifth perk is randomly rolled. This is the only exotic weapon with random roll potential and can make it very strong combined with its inherent exotic tier stats. We currently don’t know how to get randomly rolled HMs, but it’s assumed to drop as a random exotic or there will be a special mission to farm in the future.
So in my review of the Ace of Spades, I would say that this is a 9.5/10 weapon. If you have a question about my Destiny 2 INSANE New Hand Cannon Hawkmoon on this Destiny 2 Beyond Light Weapon Review, leave a comment below.

Nice
Lucky pants does in fact reload a bullet to the mag for every precision hit, but the paracausal stacks cap at 7 regardless
Ah
Bro that final boss was a pain
Lucky pants do work
They should give lucky pants the same perk as sturm: kills with your weapon load your stowed hand cannon with extra powerful shots.
