Anyone have good tips on using this gun? I've had it for the longest time but I suck with hand cannons. Can't use tlw either.

  • You need to fire below its rate of fire. They added a system that reduces the accuracy of shots when you fire hand cannon at max rate so waiting a tiny amount after each shot helps a lot. Aim for the head don't get in the dot killing them. Hand cannons, excluding the last word have rather long time to time team that with the accuracy system I mentioned above you have a hard time. However that said you can be very very ready with hand cannons if you have smooth chilled play style. Straying from side to side and making each shot hit is what counts.

  • Anytime. Again just my thoughts and experience but for ME it's worked out. Best of luck!

  • I'd agree with that. Instead of firing it as fast as you can take a split second longer between shots so their measured and accurate. Makes a world of difference with thorn and the first curse. The last word only use full auto while hip firing in its intended range. If you need to aim down sights again instead of just holding the trigger down and spraying all over the place use that split second between shots and pull the trigger for each shot so that they are measured even composed shots. That's been my experience at least. Hand cannons were my favorite weapon type when I started the game and for the first 6 months or so I rarely ventured into pvp because well, I sucked. Still kind of do but slowing and progressively getting better.
