Black Hammer - White Nail needs to be better

Black hammer is great and all, but that perk needs to be better. Simply put: 1. Reduce the amount of precision shots needed Or 2. Increase the magazine size Or 3. 1 precision shot = 1 round of ammo back into the mag Just my thoughts, I'm sure everyone will have their own opinion and my ideas may not be so great but w/e idc.

  • I just don't like the timer. I'm not a very good sniper and along with that not very fast at aiming, so maybe lengthening the rapid part or just making it 3 repeated precision shots would make it a nicer gun to those who arn't naturally skilled at sniping

  • I don't have Black Hammer so my opinion is based only off seeing others with it. The gun seems balanced and fair. I haven't personally seen anybody break the game with it. Now if you're going to use it you should tell your teammates tho. In a random strike I usually don't check others weapons or armor( unless you do or have something that gets my attention) so we don't aggro the target and you miss your shot.

  • I got the Black Hammer the first time i did Crota and i Love it. 3 People with BH and good aim = RIPeveryboss. They don't have to Buff or Nerf it.

    • The gun is ridiculous as it is. It tears through all strike bosses flawlessly if you can aim..... get good

    • So I heard the drop rate was like 20%? Ive done it twice a week after the first week and recently 3x a week. Haven't seen it. How many times did y'all do it before you got it?

      • The perk is perfect as it is. "High risk, high rewards" kinda thing.

      • No that would make it too easy. I'd like some sort of notification telling you that you've started the white nail timer so that you know how much time you have for your next shot. So annoying when you get 3 in a row and have missed the countdown.

      • Everyone is free to their own opinion and in my opinion, black hammer is just fine as is. The black hammer is best at taking down bosses with big easy crit spots. For example: The two bosses on Devils lair, the tank on the Mars strike, Nexus, Phogoth, etc With a steady hand you will basically have infinite ammo on these bosses. If you miss, then you need to practice more with the sniper rifle. Bottom line: The Black hammer is not for infantry, its for bosses.

        • If anything the keyword rapid should just be a chain of precision shots. Take away the timer.

          No, it's a well designed perk.

        • Replace mulligan with clown cartridge and everything will be good

          It's not a weapon that's supposed to be able to have white nail kick in in every single situation. If that was the case you'd never put it down. It's built for bosses with large crit spots. The devil walker, sepiks prime, valus if he isn't shooting at you, The tank on that same strike, infinite staggers on archon priest and phogoth, nexus mind, atheon, templar, are the places where the weapon shines. It's fine as is.
