Your solution is good, but the only way bungie will fix it is removing damage numbers on everything, and then people would bitch about that. This forum is just way too toxic for reasonable discussion.
As a side note, as a sunsinger that runs radiant skin and flame shield, I will be hit by this update. Firebolt just could have a base damage reduction, for example, and people wouldn't complain as much.

Alright then make it tick less and do less burn The main problem is that is keeps you out of the gunfight and no health regen for way too long

They already nerfed firebolt damage once. That'd be two nerfs. Which is a bit much. It should just do 14 damage and tick for half the time.

I do agree with the solution though.

Actually, no they haven't. I thought that for a while, but I was proven wrong. Find me one update where damage was nerfed, and I'll believe you.

Or they could give Viking funeral the thorn treatment. Nerf the DoT damage and make it tick faster so it doesn't last as long.

Just make the ticks slightly faster, so instead of lasting 5 seconds, it lasts 3, and allows for a guardian to get away and hide. I don't think thorn even needed another nerf, but that's just my opinion I guess. Honestly firebolts are fine as is.
