Destiny 2: Ranking All Exotic Weapons From Worst To Best
13. Hard Light
For those who have been playing Destiny for years, this gun is going to look very familiar to you. Interestingly enough though, it's gone through some slight changes so it's not exactly the same exotic that was in the first game.
Hard Light is an auto rifle that has rounds that will bounce off of surfaces, overpenatrate enemies and has zero damage fall off on its bullets. It does the same damage no matter how far the enemy is from you. For an auto rifle, this is a huge perk considering how much the damage fall off usually is for them. The con to this however is the Hard Light's massive amount of recoil. You may be able to do damage to far enemies, but the challenge will be actually managing to hit them.
One of the new perks to the Hard Light is its ability to switch between all three elemental damage types. This is something that will find most of its use during the Nightfall, as shielded enemies come out galore in that. Aside from that perk though, there's just not much putting the Hard Light above other guns.
