Destiny 2<\/a> has many different types of weapons and they all have their unique attributes which make them fun to use. A fan favorite among these weapon types is the Hand Cannon, which is extremely powerful and very stylish at the same time, resembling a futuristic revolver in design.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Even though Hand Cannons are one category of the game\u2019s weapons, there is a great variety present and each of them has different properties which give them individual pros and cons. <\/p>\n\n\n\n While all of them deal great damage and excel at close-to-medium range, there are differences present that make some ideal for smaller numbers of enemies, while some are meant for crowd control as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n To make it even harder to know which Hand Cannons are the best, Destiny 2: Beyond Light added more weapons and changed the properties of some of the existing ones as well.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n Luckily, we value your time and ended up creating a thorough list of the top 10 best Hand Cannons in Destiny 2<\/strong> that you can use! So, let\u2019s get started and save you the trouble of trying all of them out yourself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Before we get into the best Hand Cannons list, let\u2019s learn what it means for a weapon to be in a \u2018sunset\u2019 state in Destiny 2<\/a>. This is something that I\u2019ve noticed that not many people know about, especially if they\u2019re new, but it\u2019s more important than the players may realize.<\/p>\n\n\n\n While some people enjoy shuffling through different weapons to keep their playstyle diverse and varied \u2013 not everyone has that much time to put into the game.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This means that many players try to find a weapon to use as their main and follow its upgrade path to make sure that it\u2019s extremely useful for both PvE and Crucible (PvP) modes<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This brings us to weapons that have been put in the \u2018sunset\u2019 state as it\u2019s something that directly affects the upgrade path of a weapon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Basically, Bungie decided that certain weapons would be too overpowered if they could be upgraded constantly, so after a specific time of their release, they are to be locked to a fixed level capacity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n
