 Hand Cannons are popular in PvP battles, and it's easy to see why. While there are multiple options, Ace of Spades is definitely one of the best. Its Memento Mori intrinsic trait supercharges the next shot after you kill and reload. This extra firepower can make all the difference. This trait also keeps your radar active when you aim down the sights. The Firefly perk also helps with explosive headshots. The downside is that the gun's exotic status means that it can not be paired with another high-powered exotic in another slot. However, it's easy to pick up; just grab an exotic cipher and the materials and head over to the Monument to Lost Lights, to pick yours up. Paired with a Memory of Cayde cloak on a knife-juggling Hunter for a great tribute to Hunter Vanguard Cayde-6. Dead Man's Tale (Exotic Scout Rifle) You could unlock this one through the excellent Presage mission on the abandoned space station, and it is well worth doing. The Cranial Spike intrinsic trait makes this a satisfying and effective Scout Rifle with bonus damage on precision hits. While very entertaining in PvE as you land crit after crit, in PvP the extra firepower can mean the difference between life and death. Scout Rifles may not be as popular as Hand Cannons or Shotguns, but if this is your weapon type of choice, the Dead Man's Tale is for you. It can be quite hard to get your hands on, but if it's already in your arsenal, give this one a whirl. Felwinter's Lie (Legendary Shot){kind=link}
