I would just like to see a shift in the metagame. Whether it be a nerf to those guns or a buff to others. (AUTORIFLES!)

3 Replies. . LEAVE EXOTICS ALONE !!!!!! these weapons are Exotic for a reason. bungie cant get weapons balancing right anyways. point in fact Sword Breaker is a stronger shot gun then the Exotic shot gun Invective. That is just wrong. Also lets get Suros back on its feet. around 314 damage a bullet plz.

If u are good at the game you wouldnt care about thorn btw id use thorn check my stats

The only thing that bothers me about thorn is the fact that it dominates trials. It's not difficult to beat but it gets annoyed when your screen is constantly green

4 RepliesI get Killed by the thorn all the time. But I would get pissed if they nerfed it. You can't get better if they keep nerfing down the game for people that can't stand losing or wont try to get better.

Edited by Erijian: 6/19/2015 10:55:38 PMYup, nerf them. I've noticed that most of the players against nerfing them aren't even 'good' Crucible players. All I, and a lot of the other top ranked Crucible players want, is a balanced game with weapon diversity. This doesn't mean buffing everything to compete with Thorn/TLW and making the game a Call of Duty clone, it means nerfing them to higher TTKs across the board. This game would plummet if all the Primary TTKs were in the .2-.6s range. It would be much more balanced if all Primaries were in the range of .80 - 1.20s, but the low Guardian Health in the Crucible makes it hard to balance it in such a way.

I've used the Last word in crucible and my opinion is Average at best. I wouldn't say the gun itself is Overpowered, its just if you use that pull trigger right, you beast mode everything. Thorn is a little more in the area of broken however only because of its almost guaranteed effect of causing lasting damage on anything it hits. So land three shots and they're dead. IMO all thorn needs is a bit of a fire rate nerf to stop people landing a kill as quickly to give their opponant a chance to fight back. Oh and you think they're bad? You don't know what hell is until you've seen your team massacred at the hands of a fully auto pocket infinity. Still gives me night terrors.

Dethrone the top tier god gun! Bring back diversity and there may yet be hope for crucible.

1 ReplyI think they should at least nerf the poison effect a bit
-
5 RepliesNeither. First, fix the glitch on TLW so it doesn't get its bonus damage while ADS, and second, buff auto rifles so they can fight the Exotic HC epidemic that the Crucible faces.

1 ReplyDon't quite understand the problem. Thorn is pretty easy to get. Obtained from an exotic bounty...which anyone who has put much time into the game will have had offered at some point. It's not like the Mythoclast or Gjallarhorn that many people with hundreds of hours in the game still haven't managed to get. If you have played the game much and still don't have Thorn, it's because you didn't want to do the bounty for it. If it is that OP, then go get yourself one. If you don't like its mechanics, or don't like hand cannons in general, then use a different weapon but don't complain about the weapon being too powerful because you don't want to do the bounty or don't want to use a hand cannon. It is understandable for people to have complained about the Mythoclast being OP in PVP because most people still don't have the damn thing. But anyone can get Thorn....so go get one or stop complaining about it.

2 RepliesPoison should be chance affect not guarantee on hit.

2 RepliesNotice that only one person who has thorn actually agrees that it needs a bit of tweaking.

Was playing skirmish this morning, dropped a good few rounds into a hunter who then hit me with a single shot from what only can be described as riffle to sniper ranges and....dead. It's frustrating but it does make you evolve your game.

Last word... Yeah that's about it.
