Issues with Hawkmoon

The Fact that the whole gun itself is based off luck and not skill. (This is no nerf post). I hope we could have new guns only the competitive part of the community can use like NLB and TLW. Hence its the reason why you never see people like Rip Apollo (The Guy that wants a year 2 Thorn when he posted about it) use something like TLW and NLB. Come fight me all you want‚ but I want my post to be discussed as civilized as possible as there might be chances that this post might be touched by competitive PvP players

    I fail to see how hawkmoon isn't based off of skill. Especially compared to weapons like doctrine and mida which are basically just spray weapons. I disagree and think that any non full auto primary weapon that requires headshots to be competitve takes skill to use. Hawkmoon take a decent amount of skill to land headshots. Not to mention you have to know the ranges. It's not like year 1 with crazy range and very little dropoff. The only real luck factor was year 1 when you could 1 shot people. As it is now it's pretty much a consistent 3 shot kill like most handcannons. Occasionally you can get lucky and get a 2 shot kill. But this is much, much rarer now that it requires 2 lucky rounds. Year 1 was a pretty consistent 2 shot kill. Which even then was fine because you could outgun thorns with it. If you were good. For a good majority of year 2 the only handcannon that could compete was tlw. That's a sad state for a weapon class when there is only 1 valid option.
