Destiny 2: All Weapons of the Trials of Nine – How Good Are They?

A Swift Verdict – Hand Cannon from the Trials of the Nine

A Swift Verdict is the hand cannon of the Trials. It is an energy weapon with a rate of fire of 260, impact of 51, and 12 shots in the magazine.

This hand cannon has top values for range and aim assist (85), but handling, magazine size, and stability could be better. Here are the stats:

The Perks:

• Precision Housing: The recoil pattern of this weapon is more vertical.
• Zen Moment: Damage dealt with this weapon increases its stability.

You have the choice between:

• While Sliding: When you slide, the weapon magazine is partially loaded, and range and stability are temporarily improved.
• Danger Recognized, Danger Neutralized: Improved reloading, stability, and handling when enemies are nearby.

Additionally, you can influence stability, range, and weapon readiness speed with the sights.

The time-to-kill is 0.93 seconds, which requires 5 critical hits at short range. You can also kill with 7 body hits, which takes 1.4 seconds. Unfortunately, this is the worst archetype of hand cannons, which is why A Swift Verdict is another Trials weapon that is currently unusable.

Rather go for Omolon or SUROS hand cannons. No recommendation for A Swift Verdict.
