Thorn is so powerful it is broken. To support this claim I will provide you with this link which is to a thorough spreadsheet of weapon stats. The TTK (Time To Kill) of thorn [b]100%[/b] of the time if two critical shots are landed is [b]0.36[/b] sec. When this [b]100%[/b] chance is compared to Hawkmoon which has a [b]39%[/b] chance of a two shot kill it is clear how broken the weapon is. [b]100 - 39 = 61[/b]. Thorn is [b]61%[/b] more likely to two shot kill you at a rate [b]0.04[/b] sec faster than Hawkmoon.
Food for thought. Let me know what you think.

I had to resort to using thorn in iron banner because red death, vex, and my shot guns could not compete against it and last word
