Thorns in iron banner

Why do even more people use them in iron banner than regular crucible. An hour in and I literally haven't been killed by another gun. Stop being boring the lot of you. Anyone saying git gud I haven't dropped below 1.6kd in any of the games. I just don't understand why its gone from 60% in control to 90% in IB Its practically the same.

  • This OP is completely full of $hit and the usual WHINY BITCH thats all. I played JUST LIKE YOU, the last 3 iron banners I took 2 characters fully to rank 5, so thats 6 times thru iron banner up to rank 5, and I rarely EVER saw more than 1 or 2 Thorns on the opposing team. Maybe 2 characters would use it per game, and I never EVEN ONCE NOTICED IT BEING DIFFICULT TO COMBAT. Never once did I think "gee thats a lot of thorn and its SOOO hard to kill the guys who use it". On the contrary I can use any legendary hand cannon, from Ill Will (rolled for the PVP cheese luck and final round), to a Timur's Lash Spec'd with just a simple perfect balance (the impact is beastly), to anything from Red Death to a simple pulse called Spare Change .25. Seriously stop being effing babies you pathetic whiny girls. Your point is even more idiotic because wouldn't it make more sense to have MORE thorns in Iron Banner...where level increases do matter? If its standard crucible where bungie attempts the ridiculous Balance the playing field level advantages disabled....thats the point where thorn is less than useful. Standard Crucible thorn is worthless compared to other legendaries.

    • Remember when people kept asking for a thorn buff? Careful for what you wish for.

          • Because thorn is exotic and easy to ascend. And lvl advantages are enabled. Since a lot of players for IB are pve players looking for etheric light or just like the gear this makes since. For the average pve player ascending a legendary weapon that is only useful in pvp makes no since unless you have tons of etheric light laying around, which would mean you either play for the gear or fun. Also thorn is probably one of the easiest good crucible weapons to get. Red death and TLW put you at the mercy of RNG and Xur.

              • People don't go to IB to be unique snowflakes, they go in with best weapons to get rep in a limited amount of time so they can get loot at the end, right now best weapon is thorn, get over it or don't play, choices are yours.

                • I got all three characters (one since deleted) to rank 5 the last three IBs. I didn't get killed by Thorn all that much during the last two tbh.

                  • IB level/power matters. Thorn = power. Deal with it, or don't play IB.

                          • control has lots of casuals like me who will never earn a Thorn, IB is more for dedicated players, so more will have thorn per game, maybe?
