“Yours. Not mine.” - Renegade Hunter Shin Malphur to Dredgen Yor

I decided to review the exotic hand cannon known as The Last Word. A PvP beast, although not as insanely dominant as it was in Year 1. Still one of the best weapons to use in your loadout. This weapon is probably my favorite in the game. Anyways let’s get down to the nitty-gritty.

PvP:

Fast rate of fire hand cannon (full-auto)
Has really good range even if base stats don’t tell you so
Amazing at close quarters
A lot of damage in a short amount of time

PvE:

Pick a different gun.

The Last Word is one of the best weapons in PvP and has been one of the most used guns for a while now. As far as perks go, I suggest you run with Soft Ballistics as a barrel perk and Perfect Balance down the middle.

A lot of people say that TLW doesn’t work for them and ask "How do you use this thing?!?!?"

Well some good tips are to aim down the sights (only use hip fire at close quarters) and don’t just spam the trigger. Even though it is a full auto weapon, most of the time it is better if you tap the trigger when you need it. I find that a combination of holding down the trigger and tapping it works best. TLW takes some time to learn to use effectively but once you do it is a beast.

For those PvE oriented, well, I would not recommend taking this into a raid or any PvE event for that matter.
