Make THORN an Exotic again.
If you had thorn you loved it
If you got killed with thorn you hated it.
How about instead of keeping the thorn nerfed to the point life support wont help it, change up its perk it's exotic burn effect like you changed the Dragon's Breath.
How or what do you mean you may ask???
Well how about we make it go back to being an Exotic that's including the number of "tics" damage be increase to its original time and damage, keep it's main perks like final round and have a special exotic perk that instead of every round producing the burning effect, have one or two random bullets in the mag produce that burn effect. Change its stats like buffing it up a bit aswell.
This makes it go back to its ways of being useful and fair to the community. just an idea though.....

I had Thorn. I despised it. I felt like a cheap and unskilled Guardian who could not hold my own without overpowered range, accuracy, and damage (not to mention lingering damage). I hope Thorn never returns to any form of glory in Destiny.

All they need to do is remove the stacking effect and buff the damage back to 3 for 6 ticks

1 ReplyEdited by Infamous067: 6/4/2016 5:34:53 PMI do agree it could have a different perk changed like the exotic rocket. I feel thorns exotic perk should be something that activates on kill like a couple of exotics right now. Like getting a kill with thorn causes that player to explode with a grenade range explosion that activates the poison damage and because it requires a kill, the DOT could be slightly less than when it was op. Sort of like the necrochasm only that it doesn't kill people, it just activates the poison to stop people from regenerating health for maybe 3 seconds? You don't want anything more than that because people will exploit it very fast. I hate thorn with a passion but I think its probably because it just has an unfair advantage without a small sacrifice like red death, necrochasm, bad juju, monte carlo. All of these guns are awesome in their own way and their exotic perks activates on kill. If thorn gets changed to the way Mentioned then it wouldn't be op since the DOT would only affect people nearby their allies and even then it would only do a max of lets say 50 damage? Thats not so bad right? I also feel the vex needs a buff too and so should ice breaker. These guns should come to year 2 already but I feel bungie is saving that up until this next DLC comes out. Oh and I forgot to mention thorn already has better stats than any other hand cannon in the game so that needs to stay the same.

Concidering how much of a pain the thorn was to get originally i tend to agree all the nerfs were a bit much. Speaking of hard to get weapons Nechrocasm should have a poison dot as well. Lol its got green rounds for gods sakes

Eyasluna is a 3 tap to the head (no LITC proc, 86 damage per headshot). Ace of Spades is a 3 tap to the head (86 damage to the head, plus firefly at the end). Hawkmoon can either be a 2 or 3 tap (86 damage or 105-118 damage depending on range and barrel used). Thorn is a 3 tap to the head (79 damage plus 4 ticks of 2 damage, 86 damage per headshot, with fastest RoF of all 3). I mean, in comparison, Thorn is a viable exotic, and the most balanced it ever has or ever will be.

Fast firing hand cannon with DOT.... seems exotic to me...
-
They should make the Rose which was thorn before it had consumed darkness
-
No thorn completely ruined trials it was all anybody used and it got to a point where even if you didn't want to use it you had too just to level the playing field, keep thorn out of year 2 weapons and keep the variety in PVP

2 RepliesThorn is like a cancer that got a cure. The cancer does not need to change or come back

3 RepliesSo...thorn can't 3 shot body anymore and now it sucks?? Handcannons are PRECISION weapons after all. Still has a ton of range and the DoT paired with aggressives make it a one head-2 body combo while having the RoF of a high RoF handcannon. Still good to me, actually better than Hawkmoon.
-
I agree. Let's make Thorn great again. It's current form is pathetic.

38 RepliesEdited by Erijian: 6/5/2016 10:54:06 PM[b]Thorn is fine right now.[/b] It's still a competitive weapon that isn't outright overpowered, and it has a unique niche it fills ([b]Recovery delay, temporary target tracking, and being the only fast firing handcannon to kill with one headshot + two bodyshots[/b]). All it needs now is to be brought up to Year 2.

Thorn no pls

4 RepliesEdited by tavenclint: 6/5/2016 6:44:27 AMThe thorn nerf (all of them) is a Huge middle finger to anyone who bothered to get this gun. Was it abused? Absolutely. But removing a gun gives rise to another gun. Just give thorn less than normal bullets and restore it back to its former glory. Heck maybe it holds 20 bullets max and with armor perk, it can hold 25. NLB is a gun of skill in my opinion because you really have to make each shot count. Problem solved.
-
I honestly never thought of it like this, and they could do this with so many other guns they don't want to bring back to year 2 FOR SOME STUPID SHIT REASON! I'd love to see what they could do with thorn but I think it would need to be different from what you said for the pure reason that it would basically be a hawkmoon then, but I like where your heads at
-
I had thorn, it was extremely cheap. Of course everybody loved using it, but there was no variety in the game.
-
I hope the obliterate that piece of trash from destiny altogether. I don't want to even see the weapons stat tree exist. The only reason I would ever use that thing is because some pathetic player on the other team thought they were the shit. I would equip it, destroy the OP douche, then go back to anything else.

2 RepliesI never will agree with nerfing exotics no matter what. Just cause a gun kills you get over it I'm so sick of I was killed by a gun nerf it we should just fight with pillows but even then the community would ask to nerf the feathers in the pillow cause it hurts my poor kd lol
-
Or just bring the Thorn back to normal. It still destroys in PvP no matter what they do, so why make PvE fans (and Thorn fans) suffer because of the PvP f a g s ?

Remove DoT and increase base damage slightly.

14 RepliesHow about make thorn suppress a guardian for a very short time (1 second) like tether, on every hit. No DoT. This would make thorn a defensive weapon, preventing panic fists and the like, while keeping the flavor of a weapon that suppresses guardian light.
