DoT Weapons Shouldn't Exist
This is going to be quite funny as I know how many people love their "skilless" Thorn from year 1, the gun that so many people knew was a terrible gun and pathetically cheap to use, but had to use it to compete. Personally myself, I fired one shot in patrol cosmodrome at the wall, I put it back in my vault and have never taken it out since, I hated the gun from the start and the way it felt, the way it looked. The whole thing about the Thorn I just hated ... before it got the most ridiculous buff in Destiny so far.
DoT on a gun just shouldn't be a thing, how about that? The advantage it gives you is just far too significant for a weapon, a weapon that has so many bullets to use, every bullet you hit provides you with a location of the enemy, a constant position which gives you a massive advantage as positioning is a huge thing in pvp. It completely stops that player being able to use any health regeneration abilities on any weapons or armour which is completely stupid as they are tough to do and you should be rewarded for actually accomplishing them.
Now I know there are no DoT weapons in game apart from that disgusting hand cannon and many people genuinely liked using it, sure I know my opinion is not the same as everyone else's and everyone is entitled to use what they wish in a video game. For a gun to have this level of an advantage over any opponent in a game that has such a fine line between dead or alive is ridiculous, no amount of nerfs or balance of buffs will ever be able to make a gun that deals DoT a balanced weapon, Thorn needs to be redesigned with a different perk on it for year 2.
Let the salt and hate flow through you.

Edited by king199780: 1/16/2016 12:02:53 AMI was with thorn from the beginning...back when it's magazine was less and the reload was trash...then the dlc came in..made it god..i putted it on the vault for ages.I hated since then...it became a skilless weapon..don't try to argue..thorn doesn't require anything from you but JUST 3 hits any part of the body...the sweat I have seen in doubles lately is unreal...time to fight fire with fire...in bought it again from the kiosk so I counter it...it will on be used only if I see any else use it...see how they like it

Not just weapons need to be nerfed...

Department of transportation. Has a gun?

1 ReplyIn my opinion thorn kinda looks gross. Like the icon for the gun is awesome but the gun itself looks unpolished. The gem in it's side looks like a JPEG for christ's sake. I don't know, the way the gun looks always bothered me. Is that just me?

Muted
-
All you can do is play with it. I'm trying to get one and I will not stop using it till its nerfed or gone
-
It does exist thus making every word you typed as pointless as every other word here
-
I'd hate on something to if I sucked with it.

2 RepliesI loved that gun then people started bitching about it so into the trash it went. Then decided to get it back from the trash for collecting

5 RepliesWhat is DoT?

5 RepliesI have an amazing idea. Give us a year 2 thorn. But... DoT can only proc on critical hits. Thorn would do the same exact damage as it does now except no burn from body shots. The gun would take the same amount of shots to kill.
-
So much hate by the OP on my Hunter's incendiary throwing knife. Must have been told to "stick around" too many times...
-
Especially not a primary.
-
I say buff it so you sucks can really complain.
-
thorn is not as bad as firebolt grenades. get rid of those while youre at it too
-
Let the salt and hate for through you? Isn't this post full of salt and hate coming from you
-
Its sounds like its namesake is working (0,,o)
-
Go play another game

10 RepliesYou're right we should have no guns that are innovative and fun to use because you like this games shit PVP mode. Keep bitching PVP scrub you're doing you're part to make yr2 even more boring.

3 RepliesLAMO... Thorn 2016. It's the beast everyone loves to hate. I may even cancel my Destiny vacation just to take that bad boy out of the vault and go into crucible on Throwback Thursday!!!
-
I agree.
-
What should happen: Health regen perk > dot Any and every health regen perk should cancel DOT in PvP when triggered. Imo, additionally damage numbers should not appear through walls etc with Thorn's DOT. Best thing would be to not bring it to year two
-
10 RepliesWhat about skills that give dot? Hunter and warlock classes do. They just as cheap? Thorn dot is massively useful in pve. Hand cannons get a multiplier hit in majour and ultra and the dot helps not only bring them down faster but help keep shields down while you reload.
