Honestly people who still think Thorn needs a nerf in its current state have PTSD from Y1 (no offense). It needs a buff. People can't be scared of what could potentially happen to it and become Y1 all over again. Why do you think they nerfed it so many times plus adding the Silimar artifact? Bungie has learned their lesson about it in Y1 trust me. Or else they wouldn't have nerfed it like they did, into a weapon not worthy of being an exotic. Let it be. Leave the poor weapon alone. It needs a buff.

  • Especially since there's an artifact that greatly reduces DoT damage.

  • I'm pretty sure bungie will nerf it again in the next update. Changing it to a legendary, lowering the dot damage to 1, increase recoil, decrease range stability impact fire rate and reload, and rounds are no longer thorns.

  • People used to be intimidated and scared of Y1 Thorn.... people are NOW intimidated and scared of Outbreak Prime..... because a high ROF pulse ALSO needs a DoT effect.... but once I get mine, it will be FINE....

  • Outbreak Prime isn't overpowered, and it doesn't have DOT, wtf are you talking about?

  • Personally I think it's a good gun, the Siva swarm triggers off precision kills and will kill a guardian, the mini gally effect. I thought it also had a dot from regular hits, which is why it's popular killing raid and strike bosses.

  • Every four bursts you hit on a single target cause a siva swarm. But unless they have an over shield or a super active they will die or have killed you before that can actually do any damage. And it is most definitely a great weapon, it just isn't overpowered.

  • Neither was thorn. Thorn itself is a reasonable hand cannon, the DOT was what caused all the problems and complaining. Outbreak does look good, it is a good weapon... and it melted people during Iron Banana. Is it OP... we'll see.
