Hand Cannons

General Information

Overview

Hand Cannons are powerful weapons with high aim assist that reward a calm hand when under fire. This weapon type sacrifices RPM (exeption is The Last Word) for higher damage per hit, making it ideal for longer range engagements.

So far, the only Energy Hand Cannon to use Special ammo is Eriana's Vow.
