'''The Last Word''' is an exotic [[hand cannon]] first introduced in ''[[Destiny]]'' Year One. A Year Two version of The Last Word is available in ''[[The Taken King]]''. The Last word excels in [[Crucible]] because of its' fast rate of fire and high impact. This [[hand cannon]] has been nerfed from its [[Year 1]] itineration, with changes made to a bug that made it deal over 100 damage per headshot and would kill an enemy [[Guardian]] with only two shots. The current [[Year 3]] version still retains the signature firing but not takes between 3 to 5 shots to kill and enemy [[Guardian]].
