This once mighty hand cannon is Xur’s pick this week. Is it worth your Coins?
Xur brought a bit of an old school weapon this week in Destiny. That’s the Exotic hand cannon Hawkmoon, once regarded as one of the best weapons in the game. But that was in Year 1, what about now?
In fact, we’ve had the same weapon show up this very month.
Hawkmoon is still a good pick for casual PvP and PvE, but it’s not the obvious choice it once was. One of the weapon’s main advantages used to be that its Luck in the Chamber and Holding Aces perks would stack, giving a decent bonus damage in PvP. That’s no longer the case.
Although these perks make for fun encounters, because of the randomness nature of the bonus damage you get, they’re not a killer combo anymore. Hawkmoon is still a good PvE weapon, though, but sadly not among the best.
In short: it’s good to have and fun to play with, but not a must-have.
