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

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

Edited by BL4D3 M3N4C3: 5/5/2015 7:16:38 AMCoiled hiss 1919 with headseeker, perfect balance and glass half full, Warlock blink and keeping your distance Works 8/10
-
Oversoul edict, blink and keep moving
-
Vex Mythoclast. Faster fire rate..
-
Run!!
-
Red death, fire fast and aim for the head. Three bursts usually can kill them
-
Gunslinger hunters and both Titans can max out their armor stat. Thorn will not kill in two headshots or three body shots with Max armor.

Edited by blasiPL: 5/5/2015 6:54:25 AMBad Juju - i move on the sides with radiant dance machines as a hunter and shoot in the head quickly. Most important is to move on the sides left and right so he could not nail that headshot. Thorn knows that if he misses a head he is screwed so use his impatiance on your advantage :)
-
use their tactics against them most thorn users including my self use the peek a boo tactic and use cover very efficiently, use grenades to force us to move and use good weapons from there common mistakes when fighting s thorn user Rushing using an auto rifle trying to combat a thorn user with a thorn.... trying to shot gun a thorn user trying to sneak up on a thorn user(i watch my radar very carefully) using a shit weapon any questions?
-
Last word IMO is by far the easiest way to counter thorn if you're skilled with it.
-
Ummm. Use thorn. Or keep distance, stay out of tight rooms and hallways and pull our your sniper or mida. I'm slowly figuring out pvp. I still won't bring my self to the faggy shotgun slide fest some of these try hards are about.
-
Red death dur
-
I used Mythoclast which was a big mistake. I think the best way to beat Thorn is to use Red Death. If you manage to kill the Thorn-user, then Red Deaths perk will heal you before the burn-effect takes your remaining health. Red Death + Skill
-
Hawk moon, last word, vex, red death, any shotgun, heavy, supers, a arc bolt/fire bolt grenade in conjunction with a hawk moon headshot or anything equivalent, strangers rifle, and others ways I'm probably missing all can win you a fight against someone using the thorn. It's honestly just up to you however to outplay them which usually isn't that hard.
-
I use Fang of Ir Yut.. and Found Verdict. Counters the Thorn Felwinters combo pretty well
-
My thorn against theirs with range (insert Lenny face)
-
I run hawkmoon, final round spear with apethosis veil as sunsinger sucks to activate the super to win against a thorn user but happens. Just if you take that extra shot you duck and hide. Hope to regain some health if you don't have the time just radiance and. It's not a great solution but it works.

My thorn

Oversoul Erection.

Edited by TrashJade219: 5/5/2015 5:12:15 AMBy killing the user. I typically use either my MIDA, my Vex or my TDYK. I like to rush so they can't get a shot on me, but if I'm hit, it's pretty simple to just evade and regain your strength. Don't understand why everyone wants Thorn nerfed so badly when they could so easily kill the user.
-
With thorn.
-
Just be a better shooter? TLW, Red Death, Juju, Oversoul edict, for the people, hard light. My gun doesn't matter so much.
-
Vex! Been using it lately on my warlock. Or hawkmoon
-
With my Vex or hawkmoon
-
If you get a kill with red death I think the health regen might save you from the burn
-
Punch their shit face in
