Why is the Thorn so OP now?

Why was it given so many perks all at once? This guy had enough time to kill me before I killed him with a Thunderlord. I began shooting first and missed no shots. Guess who it was? Heavy Weapons < Pistol?

  • Sometimes it amazes me that people can't understand basic concepts. I'm not complaining about getting two headshots before you're dead. It's the combination of the perks, buffs, and high ROF that makes the pistol overpowered. If you know how to exploit the weapon, its the most powerful weapon in the game. It limits players from having their shields recharge longer than any weapon in the game. The ROF is faster than that of the hawkmoon, thus getting those two headshots a lot easier. Even if you miss one of the headshots, the lingering damage allows an easy kill to the body on the second shot. Or depending on the strategy, you can easily do one headshot, wait and get a body kill. We went up against a team with two Thorns and one Suros on Skirmish. The guys with the Thorns would make the assists and easy Suros kills. We wouldnt get our shields back up nowhere near in time due to lingering damage on top of the time it takes to get the shields back up. Its a bad combination of everything put together. It has nothing to do with having the ability to get a two headshot kill.
