It's really nice to have Thorn back and all...

...but it really needs its range back. I loved using Thorn in PvE during year one, and it's still amazingly fun and nice to use. The damage drop-off is just too severe for it to be useful enough to warrant the Exotic slot, however. Since HC:s already have very steep damage drop-off values, I don't see a reason why Thorn shouldn't have its original range stat back. This would merit its use in PvE and PvP. the DoT has already been nerfed several times, and hand cannons have nowhere near the range and damage as they did in year one. I really don't see why Thorn can't have superior range, considering all the nerfs to it. So while the gun still feels fantastic to use, it's greatly hampered by the low range for use in PvE. Again, with the already implemented range, accuracy, damage drop-off and DoT nerfs there simply is no risk of Thorn becoming too powerful in PvP. Let Thorn free, and give it its range back!

  • 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.
