Byron’s Hero – Hand Cannon with a Strange Name in Destiny
Where can you find the weapon? The Crucible Quartermaster sells it.
What is this strange name? The hand cannon is named after the British author Lord Byron, known for his cynical and arrogant antiheroes who often brood melancholically. The flavor text of the weapon is thus “Brood, baby, brood.”
What traits does Byron’s Hero have?
- Third Eye – When using the scope of this weapon, the radar remains active.
- Hammer-Forged – Improved range and precision
- Surrounded – This weapon deals bonus damage when three or more enemies are in close proximity
What distinguishes the weapon?
Besides the fact that the weapon looks really cool, it is well-suited for cleaning up effectively, especially against numerous enemies. Thanks to Third Eye, you maintain awareness and the Hammer-Forged perk allows you to maintain some distance.
Conclusion: For chaotic situations, a clear weapon, but probably not top tier.
