So your argument for why Thorn isn't cheap is that another HC is cheaper? That's like saying a Corvette is slow because it will get beat by a Veyron.
For those of us on Xbox, Thorn stands out even more. It's easy mode for less skilled players, and a complete crutch.

what weapon is not a crutch? most people dont answer this for me when i ask, will you?.
-
Non of them are crutches they're just guns some better than others I try to use the better ones that have little recoil and high damage output
-
yea it seems apparent that bungie does not understand balancing fast auto rifles fire rate -high= positive damage -extremely low = negative range - low/medium = negative recoil -high = negative mag - high = positive slow auto rifles fire rate - slow/medium = positive damage - medium/high = positive range - medium/high = positive recoil - low = positive mag - low/medium = negative seems to be kinda stupid design choice huh? and reload speed is arbitrary.

Scout rifles, snipers, most other hand cannons

scouts are fine for the most part dont see many other than the mida multi tool and its usually paired up with the radiant dance machine's making them more than annoying to hit back, due to the massive kick it gives you due to its hidden perk snipers i dont agree with due to the way most perk them and you know this just as well as i do most people use Praedyth's Revenge, the iron banner sniper or any sniper with unflinching or final round to abuse the recoil and damage mechanics. its basically become quick scope hell for some matches most hand cannons work well because of the way they are built, but sadly the choices are small across the board. From the current 331 damage versions you can currently obtain the red hand IX, TFWPKY 1969, the chance, , and the currently still broken Timur's Lash (hawk lash build or PVP Range build) it is also still viable to have a The Devil You Don't, or a Lord High Fixer for standard crucible but being that those weapons are locked at a damage of 300 they have no real warrant in iron banner or PVE any more. The fact that there is still an almost perfect perk set for most legendary weapons of any type for PVP shows how most guns become a perk crutch instead of a it being a competitive PVP weapon. in HALO every weapon fits its rock paper scissor moment. for people to say some weapons are crutch weapons and some are not is ludicrous when inherently all weapons in destiny have exactly the same problem of perfect perks working better than the rest, as opposed to perks matching your play style or being disabled completely in a PVP setting , the only difference i see between legendary crutch weapons and exotic crutch weapons is one of them has a random roll for perks instead of being built problematic

In pvp you are suppose to win so using the best guns in the game isn't a crutch it's a good start to a -blam!-ing excellent strategy.
-
its a way to win, with strategy you plan your actions out and anticipate the enemy, but it seems strategy is overruled by power in most situations even if you have the jump on them.
