==Gameplay==
==Perks==
===Year One===
===Standard (''Destiny'')===
The Hawkmoon benefits from damage buffs. 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. It was only available in the Playstation 3 & 4 versions of ''[[Destiny]]'', until fall of 2015<ref name = "ExclusivePS4"/>
*'''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.


===Year Two===
*'''1st perk'''
The Year Two Hawkmoon was made available on all consoles, and no significant changes were made to this specific weapon.  
**'''Luck in the Chamber''': One random bullet in the magazine causes considerable bonus damage.


===Year Three===
*'''Stat modifiers'''
With the release of ''[[Rise of Iron]]'', Hawkmoon has been given two [[Ornaments]] that have a chance of dropping from [[Radiant Treasure]] boxes and [[Treasures of the Dawning]].
**'''Hammer Forged''': Improved range and accuracy.
**'''Quickdraw''': This weapon can be drawn unbelievably fast.
**'''Speed Reload''': Reload this weapon quickly.


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


===Barrel Upgrades===
===Standard (''Destiny 2'')===
*'''Accurized Ballistics''': More range and impact. Increased recoil.
*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.
*'''Field Choke''': More range and impact. Increased recoil.
<br>
*'''Aggressive Ballistics''': More predictable recoil. Enhanced impact. Shorter range and more recoil.

====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'''

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.
