Lucky Pants is a unique Hunter Exotic that greatly improves the performance of Hand Cannons by amplifying their damage up to 600%. It takes some setup to maximize its potential but with some practice, it offers one of the best DPS combos in Destiny. The fan-favorite Exotic has come under fire following a seemingly unintended nerf in Lightfall. However, this hasn\u2019t stopped Lucky Pants from becoming one of the most used Exotic armor pieces amongst Hunter mains. Now life has just gotten even better for Lucky Pants users with Destiny 2\u2019s newest Hand Cannon offering a higher DPS potential and replacing Malfeasance with its arrival. Warden\u2019s Law is new best Lucky Pants DPS option in Destiny 2 Looking to test Warden\u2019s Law, Destiny 2 expert Aztecross put the reworked Heavy Burst Hand Cannon through its paces with a good old-fashioned Lucky Pants DPS test. Tested against VoG\u2019s Templar boss, the following damage numbers assume the user is benefitting from Well of Radiance, Lucky Pants, and Lunafaction Boots: Warden\u2019s Law \u2013 570,392: FTTC + Vorpal + Adept Mag &#8211; Malfeasance \u2013 517,886: Vorpal (Catalyst) &#8211; Seventh Seraph\u2019s Revolver \u2013 424,895: FTTC + Vorpal + Adept Mag &#8211; With Crimson always being a solid option with Lucky Pants, Warden\u2019s Law was expected to perform well, but no one saw these numbers coming. Based on this testing the conclusion is clear, Warden\u2019s Law is now the best Hand Cannon to partner with Lucky Pants. The only exception to this was if a teammate is constantly applying the Witherhoard debuff which pushed Malfeasance up to 642,771. However, keep in mind that comes at the cost of two Exotic weapon slots while Warden\u2019s Law uses none. The new Legendary Hand Cannon can be earned as a drop from Nightfalls between September 12 \u2013 19. It is a rare drop in Hero difficulty runs, uncommon in Legend, and fairly common in both Master and Grandmaster.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Destiny 2\u2019s newest Hand Cannon just made Malfeasance redundant BungieDestiny 2 Hunters have discovered that their Malfeasance and Lucky Pants builds are in need of a refresh with the Exotic Hand Cannon now being outperformed by the looter shooter\u2019s newest gun.
