Thank you Bungie for making this exotic weapon even more useless than before. The Dot is a joke and the artifact will make it a laughing stock. And now the range got a 25% reduction.
Thank you for making it useless. It will suffer from ghost bullets aka bloom effect even more because of the range nerf and the artifact will make it an insignificant weapon. It will be collecting as much dust in the vault as The Fourth Horseman exotic shotgun.

I've been using my year 3 thorn since Friday when I got it and it's destroying in crucible it's just you can't use it so stop complaining and learn to use your guns. I bet you use the grasp of malok which requires zero skill.
-
I agree thorn is trash in its current state and needs a buff desperately
-
Thorn is not useless haha it's just a hand cannon I have a hand cannon with the same archetype that has explosive rounds they do the same damage but one of them stops hp regen
-
Monte Carlo has ~2.5x the base range of auto rifles in its class and Hard Light doesn't even [i]have[/i]an actual range stat due to it not having a damage dropoff. Thorn already had a horrible nerf to its DoT, but now they have to give a pathetic excuse to nerf it's range. Great, Bungie. Thanks for making my favorite weapon somehow even worse.

Doubtful
-
Your ignorance amazes me. You obviously don't watch Destiny's competitive players.
-
Nope :) Sweaties are just going to have to spam another bullet, it'll be alright :)

Fourth horsesh*t **

I feel ya. I used TFH only ONCE and then dismantled it. Looks cool, but not a fan. Regardless, I'll be using it for PvE I guess. Ugh... I used to go into PvP with it. Not anymore! Thanks, Bungie! >_> Dumbshits.
-
I'm tired of people relying on thorn to kill somebody I hope they nerf the hell of it...
-
I think in some way Bungie feels bad about exotic weapons. In year 1 they were good but got nerfed so hard over time that it's now better to just use legendary weapons with good perks over exotic weapons. Just compare the base stats of hawkmoon and it's little brother Eyasluna. Eyasluna is better in every way. And Thorn is now a funny gimmick. The burn is fun to see but never enough to kill anybody. And the reduction of the range with a -blam!-ing 25% and the burn reducing artifact that is coming is enough to make Thorn a "blue" weapon.
-
I actually use my 4th horseman lol
-
Huh... All yr1 exotics have been nerfed... Wtf. And has any one seen any yr3 exotic weapons? Exotics anything for that matter? If so link please
-
A laughing stalk?
-
Just use a thorn for crucible and oh my! that thing sucks pretty bad! We need an option so we can turn it into silver dust
-
I thought they would buff the DOT because there is going to be an artifact that decreases the amount of DOT damage they take. So why is bungie being total -blam!-tards right now like pulse rifles and they way they are set up I stupid like damn
-
I am doing back flips in my mind right now. Guns like thorn have no place in this game.
-
After they announced the range cut I now have no plan to do the new quest for it.
-
It's "laughing stock" not "stalk."
-
I feel that a fix to the "ghost bullets" will help Thorn immensely. Triplewreck's video seemed to show it suffer from ghost bullets greatly.
-
Aren't they going to buff the DOT in ROI or keep it the same
-
I personally feel the Range did need to be hit, but not the Accuracy that is directly related to the Range stat. That will definitely make the gun suffer unnecessarily. It is still the only gun in its archetype to kill with 1 head 2 body. I know there is going to be that artifact, but if somebody is wearing it that means that they are giving up double abilities, or radar with primaries, or whatnot simply to survive a gun's 1 headshot 2 body kill.
-
:D yay. That mean's I won't have to deal with that annoyance. Thanks bungie.
-
Try not to rely on the DoT. Cause the gun itself ir pretty good. I agree the nerfs werent needed though
-
Thorn was always an unskilled crutch, now it will become the skilled weapon it should always have been.
-
Thorn sucks.
