It's time to UN-SCRUB!!!
I'm seeing a lot of posts on Thorn lately, and so have you. IB has brought out the Thorny-Pain-in-my-Felwinter's Lie side of people, so I want to know:
How do YOU counter Thorn?
If you're winning Thorn encounters 7+ times out of 10, what weapons are you using? Do you rush or evade?
I'm looking for (Gun + Tactic) = WIN
Example: Hawkmoon + Sniper Headshots

Vex, or fang. Also, icebreaker from 3 maps away.
-
you counter thorn with a thorn... may the best thorn win.
-
If can't beat them join them
-
Multi tool. It puts them up shit creek. When people are beating me with thorn. I counter with a thorn. This isn't too often tho.

Edited by hemlock: 5/5/2015 9:54:23 AMHawkmoon and TLW if it is a close quarter map, if not keep my distance and use MIDA (which is a beast of a weapon by the way, that everyone seem to ignore).
-
Keep calm and push forward to get a 2 shot quick kill with the hawkmoon.
-
Hawkmoon makes a thorn look like a baby , with radiant dance machines..
-
Hawkmoon, i beat thorners 8 times out of 10
-
Bad Juju is gettin' the shit out of thorn players ;)
-
Red death and head shots. If you get kill it stops burn. You don't completely heal but you won't die
-
Headshots
-
When u hear the tone on ur Truth for a lock...u win! No matter if it's a Thorn or not...Truth don't scriminate..lol!!
-
Distance + VoC = Win. And keeping it real
-
I just do cause I'm good.
-
With Thorn . Cos I'm faster .
-
TLW, rate of fire can kill before he fires 1 or 2 shot
-
If you sit down, the thorn DoT goes away. But don't try this in maps like anomaly, because sitting down takes too long and then Felwinter will lie to you faster than you can say OP.
-
I use thorn to defeat thorn
-
You have to move and shoot. Being alert and agile is the most important thing to me when facing off against Thorn. I have pretty good success with Mida. But have been doing well with other weapons such as Another Nail in the Coffin and The Fall Will Probably Kill You 1969, I have even brought out The Last Word and of course my own Thorn. I like to use a variety of weapons in the crucible. It is interesting how fun it can be to try out something other than the Torn.
-
TLW or timurs lash aim at his shoot
-
Lord High Fixer. Identify the burn, run the other way. Put as much distance between you and the person. Good -blam!-ing luck
-
I had thorn and never touched it but for iron banner.. Well if you can't beat em join em, I was playing alone each game along with my arc blade since my team mates had no brains.,
-
I use thorn too. If you can't beat them, join em.
-
Gheleon + viking funeral DoT firebolts, or just 3 gheleon headshots. Outranged, out-burned, and out-skilled
-
Time on target with head seeker and reactive reloading with gunslinger two headshot perks. Bonus damage and buffs from every direction who needs DoT.
-
Thorn can always outgun thorn, I can absolutely get destroyed by thorn but as soon as I pull mine out they don't stand a chance. Try a pocket also
