Thorn.
Anyone else just really feel like this weapon desperately needs a PVE buffing? It kinda feels like in PVP the DOT is more about preventing shields from regenerating for a few seconds but for PVE it's like... Well.. The DOT just isn't meaningfully relevant. I suppose it's a pretty decent handcannon in it's own right but it feels like it should do a little more than give enemies a kinda itchy feeling...

I'd like the tic to last longer or be able to stack more. Legacy strikes it actually feels very powerfull. But it needs to be seen how it performs now.

Make it two headshots and the burn finishes them off. Best way to Thorn.

5 RepliesWho use thorn in PvE? it sucks as compare to a scout rifle even if they buff it,that Reduced DoT artifact will still make it useless.

3 RepliesThorn is exactly where it should be. I loke thorn and I am glad to see it work. It's just suppose to be a irritant not a killer. The point of the poison is to stop the regeneration of shields not kill. I am really glad that it has found a home.

It's extremely effective still. I constantly seeing it one shot people in crucible since people picked it back up. But I believe that's due to the game being in a constant state of lag.

4 Repliesit wont happen, bungie is about nerfing not buffing....anyway joking aside this game will never have a balanced PvE/PvP when it comes to weapons what is good for one thing isn't for the other and because of poor development decision both PvE and PvP (two very different things in terms of game play) use the same "balance tables" resulting in the constant mess and "fights" between pve and pvp player fans. Why would a non open world PvP even use such method when the majority has some sort of separation between the two types?

I think it could helpful if the DoT's stacking was changed so extra stacks are even higher. Instead of stacking like "1, 2, 3, 4, 5" it would stack more like "1, 2, 4, 8, 16". Removing the 5 stack limit could also be helpful. Speaking of which, they introduced the ability for it to stack so it could be stronger in PvE, so to anyone who says "It's supposed to be a PvP weapon!", you're wrong.

I use the numbers during DoT to track my enemies and prevent them from regenerating health
-
Thorn is extremely underpowered
-
It needs pvp buffing as well.

Yep. There are soooooo many guns that are amazing in PVP but virtually useless in PVE. Maybe they're designed that way. I mean, after all, in the lore thorn was a guardian killer. They don't really talk much about it killing other alien races.
