Stop with these threads already! Not a single one of you has shown video proof of shots missing. The entire time I've been playing Trials (at high ELOs) and IB and regular Crucible, I am being [b]consistently shot with Hand Cannons, 3-headshot killed and more![/b] Literally, players I am coming up against using; Hawkmoon Finala's Peril Lord High Fixer Eyasluna Last Word They're not missing shots... [B]EVER![/B] Even the people I play with don't miss shots with Hand Cannons, and I don't miss when I use them. If I do miss, it's because of my own inaccuracy. If you use High Impact Hand Cannons (Hawk, Finalas, LHF, Eyas), their rate of fire is slow enough to where they are [b]not affected the the 'Bloom' effect[/b]. Only the fastest RoF HC's are affected (Last Word and a couple others). Just... stop. Stop with all these posts, they're false, and if you or anyone else is really missing as often as they say they are, then you're clearly not placing your shots correctly. There is no other reason you should be missing that often, other than you being incapable of following a target while they're strafing, or you're incapable of compensating for recoil. [I]Pro Tip: Stop going for Body Shots. That's why you're losing, you're so uncomfortable with your own accuracy that you try to go for Body Shots instead of Head Shots consistently, which causes you to [b]think[/b] that you're missing due to Bloom, when you're really only missing because... well, you suck.[/i]

  • Sorry my PS3 doesn't record gameplay for me... I'm a great sniper with above average headshot accuracy, and I have no problems landing headshots at a variety of ranges with any other weapon (PR's/AR's have trouble at long range but the recoil makes such engagements unfavorable anyway. Therefore Doctrine's persistence perk is really nice!). My F. Peril on the other hand simply didn't register beyond the first shot. I have an Eyasluna with hidden hand that might perform OK but A) you end up in a "Doctrine" situation where all other guns are unviable. B) My old trials HC doesn't land shots like it used to, and I find myself now unable to use it in crucible. RIP solar Jewel of Osiris. I aimed for the body with the idea that the larger target would counteract the inaccuracy, but it was STILL too inaccurate. Like I said, pacing my shot slighly DID cause everything to register but the sheer lack of zoom, necessary paced shot (which requires more concentration), and now-slow TTK made the gun so inflexible that it's not worth using over a scout. I used to use HC's all the time during year 1 (not just Thorn), and I was one of the only players who felt the accuracy nerf during HoW. Since 2.0 though HC's have been busted. The accuracy has been buffed slightly since then but it only really helped TLW stay competitive because it already has a lower penalty for ghost bullets (unless your mag runs dry).

  • They are not affected by the bloom? What are you talking about, of course they are. You just invalidated the rest of your post by that false statement.

  • It's not false. High Impact Hand Cannons are not affected by Bloom because their RoF is low enough. The only HCs affected by Bloom are Low and Medium RoFs (Byronic Hero class, Last Word.) The only way a High Impact HC would be affected by Bloom severely enough to miss shots consistently is if the Range was below 25 (Stat), which most of them have a default range of 55 before any modifiers.

  • How about the fact that it was in the patch notes back when hand cannons got nerfed? Its not like people are complain about some shady bug, its a known feature, told to us by bungie, during the patch.

  • "If there's not a video, it didn't happen. And if there is a video, I'll probably say it's not real (lag or fake)." You sound like the cops when they kill someone.

  • Do you have video proof that your shots were hitting? If not then you obviously missed all of them.

  • Gotta love anecdotal evidence.
