[
]Equipping and firing sound[]Unique holo dot iron sight
[]Rare, Legendary and exclusive Exotic perk
Alloy Magazine
Faster reload when the magazine is empty.
20% reload time reduction. Reloading Hawkmoon without this perk takes 2. 74s, exactly as in Destiny 2.
Rangefinder
Aiming this weapon improves its effective range.
+10% range when using iron sight. Does not magnify when aiming though.
Paracasual Shot
This is an Exotic perk exclusive to Hawkmoon in Destiny 2, faithfully recreated in this mod.
Precision shots grant stacks of Paracasual Charge. The final round deals +100% damage with each stack. Stowing Hawkmoon on the last round or reloading removes all stacks. Precision shot means headshot on a humanoid enemy, robot or some species of wildlife. Crits also count as Precision shots for balance reason.
In Destiny 2, Hawkmoon gains nonlinear bonus up to +1730% damage at 7 stacks, which is an overkill in Starfield. It is changed to a fixed +100% per stack, up to +700% at 7 stacks.
There is a visual and audio cue when gaining the first stack of Paracasual Charge.
Weapon Customization
The default damage of Hawkmoon is 90. You can go to any weapon workbench and change the damage modifier up to +100% and down to -90% to compensate for your progression and difficulty setting.
How to acquire

If you have Workbench Filter Framework (WFF) installed, the crafting recipe goes into Ranged Weapons category.
Known Issues
