No one is forcing you to use it. Besides, it is earned via a difficult bounty so it has to be powerful. If you are skilled enough and have an effective play style then you will easily out gun it

If the difficulty or labor of the bounty judge if the gun should be OP then why is my Bad Juju not OP like the Thorn? Tolands Legacy is far more tedious to complete then the Thorn bounty.

Bad juju became a beast after the recent update.

Bad juju is a monster actually it's just better at certain things

Tedious, not difficult. Given enough time, you can do it easily. The Thorn bounty is much more difficult to finish off. That last step is very difficult, especially if you're on your own.

A nightfall and 25 additional strikes along with the 10,000 crucible score compared to killing hive and 500 points in the crucible and then killing some PvE boss. Honestly those seem a bit even to me by difficulty. Void damage is not hard because you should be making progress every game unless you absolutely suck at crucible in which case you don't need the Thorn because then you really are a scrub. To me their difficulty is even but Tolands legacy is far more tedious which again brings my to question why the Thorn is so OP compared to the Bad Juju

It's not even a nightfall...you can do a weekly challenge at the lowest setting. It's not some PVE boss, it's surviving until Xyor, then managing to kill her, and that's not simple. Bad Juju is actually very useable in crucible, especially with a fast, accurate full auto perk. Thorn's made out to be this fantastical weapon that melts faces left and right. It's not that fantastic. It's a handcannon. Most handcannons kill rather quickly, wouldn't you say? I think the Last Word beats out Thorn when it's used in the right situations. And other handcannons and pulse rifles and auto rifles and fusion rifles and shotguns and sniper rifles and scout rifles beat out the Thorn. It's a gun.

In my opinion all hand cannons are extremely OP especially when it comes to TLW and Thorn. I'm just sick of getting killed with two to three shots with the Thorn where it takes 4 clean Bursts from my Bad Juju to kill somebody. String of Curses is a great perk but it's the only good perk and sometimes I wonder if doing the nightfall/weekly and suffering through six hours of strikes non-stop was really worth it. And when I look at the Thorn where the bounty is on par with the Bad Juju bounty I ask "why is the Bad Juju so underpowered compared to the Thorn?"
