Hair trigger does not and never has meant fires as fast as you can pull the trigger. It's a term taken from real life where all semi auto weapons fire as fast as you can pull the trigger. A gun with a hair trigger has a modified trigger system that allows the gun to fire with very, very little pressure applied to the trigger. It's called a hair trigger bc it's exaggerated that if a hair brushed the trigger it would fire. This allows the shooter to fire the weapon with much less anatomical movement. Less movement means less sway in the gun and more accuracy. It's wasted on a gun in a video game bc trigger pull and hand movement doesn't affect the virtual guns movement. In conclusion the perk does exactly what it's supposed to do.

[quote]It's wasted on a gun in a video game bc trigger pull and hand movement doesn't affect the virtual guns movement.[/quote] That... would be false! The perk has it's (arguably fairly limited) uses. Just like in real life, guns in Destiny require you to pull the R2/RT analog button nearly all the way for your virtual gun to fire. Most handcannons offer a prime example of this as you can actually see the cork pulling back when you gently pull the trigger. MIDA's perk simply ensure the weapon fires at the slightest pull of the trigger. Try it out. I might be wrong, but I think Bungie simulated the gain in réaction time and accuracy by boosting target aquisition.

Edited by Drking7287: 2/1/2015 2:23:17 PMYes but the purpose of a hair trigger is to reduce the movement of the finger and transference of that movement to the gun. There is zero transference of movement with a controller so yeah it fires with less pull but that doesn't really help anything. Btw I'm not hating on mida it's my second favorite gun in the game but the exotic perk is only exotic for the speed. I couldn't care less about hair trigger.
