The '''Hawkmoon''' is an [[Exotic]] {{icon|Kinetic}} [[Hand Cannon]] introduced in ''[[Destiny]]'', initially exclusive to Playstation users <ref name = "ExclusivePS4">[http://blog.us.playstation.com/2014/06/16/destinys-playstation-exclusive-content-detailed/ '''Playstation Blog''' - ''Destiny's PlayStation-Exclusive Content Detailed'']</ref> and  later available to all consoles in ''[[The Taken King]]''. It was also later reprised in ''[[Destiny 2]]'' during ''[[Season of the Hunt]]'' featuring random perks for the first time on an Exotic weapon.<ref name="Trailer">[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IvEa4m7k_WU Destiny 2: Beyond Light - Hawkmoon Trailer]</ref> It is now available for purchase from [[Xûr, Agent of the Nine]].

==Destiny==
===Gameplay===
The Hawkmoon benefits from two separate damage buffs that has a chance of stacking over one another. One of its special upgrades, Luck in the Chamber, substantially increases the damage of one random round in the 11-round chamber. This increases to three rounds with the signature perk "Holding Aces", as well as an additional 2 bullets added into the magazine. When both Luck in the Chamber and Holding Aces are active on the same round, it can take down a Guardian in one shot.

===Perks===
*'''Barrel'''
**'''Accurized Ballistics''': More range and impact. Increased recoil.
**'''Field Choke''': More range and impact. Increased recoil.
**'''Aggressive Ballistics''': More predictable recoil. Enhanced impact. Shorter range and more recoil.

*'''1st perk'''
**'''Luck in the Chamber''': One random bullet in the magazine causes considerable bonus damage.

*'''Stat modifiers'''
**'''Hammer Forged''': Improved range and accuracy.
**'''Quickdraw''': This weapon can be drawn unbelievably fast.
**'''Speed Reload''': Reload this weapon quickly.

*'''Exotic perk'''
**'''Holding Aces''': Two more random bullets in your magazine deal considerable bonus damage.

===Grimoire===

'''Stalk thy prey and let loose thy talons upon the Darkness'''
----
The Hawkmoon is a true gunslinger's weapon - a smooth sidearm that makes every bullet count...some more than others.<ref>'''Bungie (2014/9/9)''', ''[[Destiny]]: Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Inventory/Primary Weapons#Hawkmoon|Hawkmoon]]''</ref>


==Destiny 2==
===Gameplay===
Unlike its previous iteration, The Holding Aces and Luck in the Chamber perks have been replaced by the perk Paracausal Shot, which requires chaining precision hits to kill enemies in one shot with the last round in the magazine. Hawkmoon is also the first Exotic weapon to now have randomized secondary perks for subsequent drops during its Exotic Mission or on rotation from Xûr.

===Perks===
*Intrinsic: '''Paracausal Shot''' - Final blows and precision hits with Hawkmoon grant stacks of Paracausal Charge. The final round in the magazine deals bonus damage based on the number of stacks. Stowing Hawkmoon on the final round removes this bonus.

====Catalyst====
In ''[[Destiny 2]]'', the [[Exotic catalyst|catalyst]] for Hawkmoon was formerly obtainable on completing [[Harbinger (Exotic Mission)|Harbinger]] on Legendary difficulty. Since this content is no longer in the game, the catalyst now has a chance to drop from playlist activity completions ([[Strike]]s, [[Crucible]] and [[Gambit]]) once the weapon has been acquired.

The catalyst, once completed after 700 weapon kills, will grant an additional perk:
*Exotic Trait: '''Hunter's Trance''' - Increased magazine size. Grants increased handling, reload speed, and weapon range based on the number of stacks of Paracausal Charge.
**'''+1 Magazine Size'''

What is this feeling?

[[Savathûn, the Witch Queen|I]] did not ask for it. I do not understand it. I do not want it.

The [[Uldren Sov|Crow]] is so carefree in his ignorance. The bonfire's glow lights up his pale features and I am drawn to the hope in his gold eyes. Where is the despairing child I anticipated?

He drinks from an open bottle of wine against the recommendation of his [[Glint|Ghost]]. The Guardian encourages him and they are laughing. This celebration is maddening; neither have reason to be so jubilant. Their world is ending and they thrash like dying creatures in the final light of collapsing stars. They do not seem to acknowledge the futility of their existence, the impermanence of it in the face of cosmic annihilation.

Now the Guardian is drinking, standing close to the fire. Their Ghost, too, encourages them not to partake. They poison themselves for the enjoyment of it.

I am reminded of my sisters. Of moments spent by lapping shores, gazing up at infinite stars full of possibilities and wonder. I am left yearning.

What is this feeling?

I do not understand it. I do not want it.

They are celebrating their victory over the Taken. The Crow is making a gun shape with his hand, swinging the nearly empty bottle of wine around in the other like a Sword. The Guardian looks pensive, sitting on a rock by the fire, contemplating the secret they are keeping. The Crow notices, but tries not to show it. He wants the Guardian's spirits to be lifted. He wants to be supportive, so that they may share in their triumphs together.

As equals.

I am reminded of my home. I am reminded of the warmth of the sun and the embrace of my family. I am reminded of my father's face. I am reminded of everyone I betrayed. All the blood spilled in the name of immortality. The warmth of the sun burns me with its memory.

What is this feeling?

I do not want it.

The fire has nearly died. The Crow fell over and cannot stand, though he insists he is fine. The Guardian is turning the embers with the tip of their Sword. The Ghosts are talking to one another in quiet conspiracy. The celebration has ended, but I can sense their emotions are mixed: complex and myriad things, when a simple, singular focus would suffice.

There is a growing kinship here. Against better judgment.

What is this feeling?
