Pulled out my Thorn today to mess around with it in crucible. It has apparently been nerfed to the point that it's unusable and certainly not fun to use anymore. The Thorn was one of the hardest guns to acquire. I don't understand why it was nerfed so much. Wtf bungie?!
-
Good. That gun is AIDS anyway
-
They made it take skill

Editado por GHOSTFACE: 6/3/2016 3:03:39 PMEven though its trash, I'd still use it. The DoT is horrible but its balanced now I guess. If anyone complains about the Thorn when it comes back into year 2 is a bitch. Straight up. Thorn is trash now. Its a regular handcannon with 3 ticks of DoT dealing "2" damage
-
Balance it
-
It became a monument to all PvP's sins... And was crushed for it. Honestly? I don't think my PTSD from that damn gun will ever end, but at least now when I hear its report, instead of tucking tail, I hunt the user relentlessly like shark to the scent of blood.
-
Do you remember how bad the original Thorn was in the very start of year 1? It was so shit that nobody even bothered using it / grinding the exotic bounty.
-
Never used it much but I miss it. I liked playing with it in PvE. #year2thorn
-
Unusable for you, not us.
-
Thorn was broken, OP? Maybe, yes. But nerfed to oblivion? No. I think right now it's deadly enough to be a great weapon, different enough to be exotic, but not so frightening that it can two shot. Bring it into Y2 plz.
-
Still don't understand why you people think thorn was balanced when it could 3 tap to the body. The first curse has a slower rate of fire and more impact and couldn't do that. And it was exotic too. So yes thorn was broken and now it's not. Hooray.

Editado por Striker1000122: 6/4/2016 4:10:30 AMNerfed to oblivion just like everything bungie makes, all exotics might as well be purple now thanks crucibabys'
-
I know they reduced the poison damage from 3 to 1 and the visual effect that the poisoned player sees was also reduced.
-
5 RespuestasThe gun used to be a 2 shot kill with heavy aim assist. It need a nerf, [b] HOWEVER [/b] to the extent now it has actually become a dud. It gets the bullet damage fine but the dot is too low. The initial bullet damage is ok just up the dot
-
1 RespuestaBlame PvP players .
-
Made a hard weapon incompetent.....
-
3 RespuestasAlso hardest guns to acquire my ass. You can literally just decrypt engrams now and get it. Most people didn't get it the old way like you and me.
-
What's funny is thorn is actually pretty decent it's just everyone got so used to the year 1 version that was overpowered (well at least the mark of the devour). That being said I think it could use a buff to range but that could be said for almost all hand cannons in general.
-
1 RespuestaGuns good. Plenty good actually. Been using it on and off for the past week. My only problem with it is the DoT. It may as well not even be there. I think there's a good middle ground with how it functions and how potent it is. A shame Bungie can't seem to find it.
-
So it's balanced
-
-
The last word was overpowered could easily take out any thorn lol what are y'all saying
-
Their was nothing good about that gun It screwed up the entire balance of the game because it vastly out performed any other exotic or legendary making you almost have to use one. People who say nerf herders or crucibabies or whatever you guys say these days ruined it are full of yourselves. If you didn't think that gun was OP you're in serious denial.

Editado por bobswerski: 6/3/2016 10:24:45 PMIt was rightly and justly punished for its many many sins.
-
Blame the nerf babies. A shame, it was once a great weapon.
-
5 RespuestasIts come full circle, back to the days when it was usless. Nerf brigade screems loudly. Nerf brigade are liberals. You will never see the nerf brigade at a trump rally, which is good for them, they wouldn't be able to take beatings (which the media ignores) from militant leftists that are not smart enough to realize that libralism is just a 21st century re-branding of communism. So whats the answer? Well, not in libralism, not conservatism, but Libertarianism. Let the people bear arms, the president protects the constitution, the constitution protects the people. Fk the NWO. Nation States forever. If hillary gets in it will be war with iran within 2 years. Repeal assault rifle bans And bring back the glorious thorn.

Bring Thorn back
