Okay I usually don't complain about guns and and I definitely never post on the forums but lets be honest with ourselves here Thorn and Felwinter's are over performing outside of their intended range. Now I'm not about to cry nerf because I hate nerfs.
[b]Thorn[/b]
Thorn is an issue because of it's ease of use and the ridiculous burn. People are always trolling saying to "git gud" but honestly there is no way of avoiding it. Seriously who really enters a gun fight and not get shot at least once? The thing about Thorn is there is no such thing as taking cover. You get hit once and your burning while the guy you shot is already regaining his health. But what makes it so bad is that even when you get into a gun fight with Thorn and win the burn will always kill you no matter what basically making it a trade off. That is a problem. My idea of Thorn is burn should only take effect if it's a precision shot.
[b]Felwinter's Lie[/b]
It's obvious this thing is performing outside of it's intended range. Now of course the trolls are going to say "don't get so close" My question is this who the hell in their right mind will see a guy charging them and decide Oh let me charge them back! No one so shut up. The issue is this I can back step for days I can jump I can twirl I can dance but the moment they are in mid range I'm gone. The problem with this gun is simple bungie nerfs all the range of every shotgun but gives this one two range options. Now why does this one shotgun that is easy to obtain need this?
The only reason you people use these guns is because they are overpowered. I have a blue shotgun called crash casket that kills from the same the distance as Felwinter's. I don't use this because I like it or I enjoy it. It's because it's op and gets the job done. I won't defend this gun because I know it should be fixed. I won't tell others to git gud because I know the moment I look at them they're dead with zero effort. No skill required and same goes for Thorn and Felwinter's. No skill.

I use both of these. They are the best in slot combo. You ideally want a perfect roll Felwinters though, it isn't a simple 10 rerolls for everyone, mine took over 100.
-
What they need too do is sell the felwinters in a exotic engram that cost 500 strange coins or 500 motes

4 RepliesIve been arguing on these forums all day about Thorn and its sad how people cant see the problem with this weapon. Im starting to think people just argue for the sake if arguing because its so freaking obvious
-
To thorn I say read death To felwinters I say its broken as crap
-
Most unoriginal post
-
Nerf whatever, better players will still kill lesser players with whatever the new best guns are. Its an endless cycle. Get good with these so called OP guns, and play on.....

4 RepliesDoesn't matter what weapons are buffed, nerfed or left alone. Good players will adapt to any changes and bad players will keep on dying and crying. If both of these weapons get nerfed, the Tryhards are just going to find the next best thing and kill you with that. Quit -blam!-ing bitching and learn to adapt or you're going to keep having a bad time.

Waaaaah!
-
And people that use that setup are using blink, which makes it worse.
-
I use the Thorn and I still lose to other weapons. I really don't have a game when I completely dominate the other team unless they are just as bad as me.

1 ReplyActually I just use Red Hand IX..a high impact hand cannon from NM..gets the job done..usually I don't die.

I've beaten many Thorn users with and without the Thorn and survived the burn. It's really not that bad. I also don't have any of the armor perks selected, and yes if you have armor perks selected you will survive the 2 shot headshot of the Thorn
-
1 ReplyActually if you're in a firefight with thorn red death will save you if you win
-
House of Wolves has at least 2 shotguns ( Matador 64 & Astral Horizon) with better base stats than the felwinters lie. They have the same impact as Felwinters but both have better fire rate and range. If you can't beat em join em, but if you can, beat em.

2 RepliesThorn-easily countered with snipers, red death, shotguns, well placed grenades, vex, bad juju, MIDA, and TLW. Felwinters-thorn(lol), TLW, Vex, MIDA, Bad JuJu, sniper/scout, shotguns, and red death

2 RepliesHis account hasn't played destiny so I can't look through and see if he's a scrub or not. I'm disappointed

Buff thorn pls bungie
-
First of all, thorn only two shots on a headshot, so regardless if you add burn to only headshots, it's still a two shot, and people will still complain. I just join them. Second of all, Felwinter's with hammer forged shot package is easy to obtain? You simply had to get to rank 2 vanguard, have a commendation, and save 150 marks (done in two weeks...). This nets you a VENDOR SOLD WEAPON with the same perks in secret handshake. So I don't even complain about felwinters, my shotty does well too. Only difference is I use my primary primarily, and pull out my special for special situations.

I rocked a team of thorn and felwinters with a timurs lash and a found verdict Just gotta adapt

2 RepliesHow am I supposed to back away from a shotgun combined with a sniper?

2 RepliesYou guys are calling him a whiny bitch but if the thorn or FWL gets nerfed you guys are going to be whiny bitches and i do use the thorn but the shotgun does have too much range. Tone it down a bit and i'll be fine but the thorn idk about that one.
-
5 RepliesPeople use get gud as an excuse so they can continue to abuse specific weapons because they know they can't do as well with other non cheesy guns. And this is from a guy with every exotic anything and then some. I hope they nerf the fück out of it

Git Gud u scrub

Thorn is more annoying than anything. I think it shouldn't be able to poison more than one person at a time, but aside from that it's not game breakingly bad. It's annoying as hell and is certainly a crutch weapon, but there are ways to beat it. Felwinter's is fine the way it is honestly. The fire rate on it is horrible. Sure it can kill with some certainty on that first shot but you're not getting too many multi kills with it. In addition if you make the enemy miss with it one time you're basically getting a free kill since you could melee them twice and teabag them before the second shot is ready. I use felwinters so say I'm biased or what not, but it's not half the shotgun as the judgement that new monarchy is about to have available. Slightly less impact, higher rof, higher stability, higher reload, and same range than felwinters.

Completely disagree with you.
