Junior and I are hopping on to take a crack at the Nightfall. Only have time for one go at it tonight.

Nevermind. Looks like XBL is down for us. Maybe tomorrow.

Challenge: find a worse roll than this. Middle one is braced frame, no sights with extra target acquisition.

Legitimate question.

Is Hidden Hand worth it on Hand Cannons? The best one I got has Sureshot, Outlaw, Snapshot and Hidden Hand. I'm still going to farm it, but I think that is pretty good.

Worthwhile, yep. Not god tier perk, but good.

Probably depends on which gun, and the rest of its perks. I have an Imago Loop with Sureshot, and just on its own that sight seems to be more than enough. If I point at an enemy and ADS/fire in quick succession, it seems to be a virtually guaranteed headshot as long as they're within a reasonable range, to such a degree that I'm not sure how much better it could get. Not to say that hidden hand wouldn't help, but I don't see how it would be noticeable given that it hits pretty much 100% of the time anyway.

But, on a different gun and especially without a target acquisition boost from the sights, it might be worthwhile. I think there's no question target acquisition helps, especially on a hand cannon where the first shot really counts. The more rapid-fire a weapon is, the less target acquisition matters, IMO.
