For the billionth time, Thorn and The Last Word are ridiculously overpowered. Nerf them.
Do. It. Now.
It should not take this long too implement, especially given the amount of overwhelming wave of hate that has been directed at these weapons for months now.
I understand that you're busy Bungie, but rebalancing your PvP is of paramount importance to the future of Destiny.

Seeing as a lot of users here are arguing that Thorn and The Last Word are not OP, but instead that I'm merely bad, please feel free to check out my KD. According to Destiny Tracker, and at the the time of this edit, I am ranked #1086 for KD in the world.
Sorry for elitist-sounding comment, but you can still be good at this game and see how blatantly overpowered Thorn and The Last Word are.

Yes, I am using The Last Word on my Hunter. But no, that does not make the argument I am making in this thread invalid. Why would I limit my performances in PvP by not using the best weapons available? Out of pride? -blam!- that, I want to win - just like most of you.

Dismantling the popular and rather foolish argument that there will always be an OP gun in Destiny (or even that one should always exist), by user Geoff Edwards.
[quote]"Bullshit.
The game is maths. Numbers can be balanced. TTKs, required engagement times are all measurable.
Select an optimal engagment range.
Make damage fall-off more pronounced so that it has a more important effect.
Make ranged weapons like scouts even harder to use in close combat.
Make sure RoF and Impact result in standardised TTKs across weapon classes and types .
Make weapons selection interesting. Thorns burn is interetsing - it delays recovery. Red Deaths healing is interesting. TLW's hip fire is interesting. Make these tactical choices - not the only choices.
As bungie says - there should never be one solution. All loadouts should be viable."[/quote]

5 RepliesYou can be this good at this game even when the Thorn and TLW are this dam good? But your still bitching about it? Sounds as if your pissed because you can't be #1 and looking for ways to gain ground. I could care less about what rank I am or a K/D there are more important things to do. Remember, Losers always complain, but winners always find a way to win

I believe they said in the weekly update that when September rolls around they'll discuss things such as weapon balance etc. So expect to wait for a few more months for any sort of patches, fixes, or balances. Even then they probably won't adjust things that we want.

I think the thorn and the Last Word can both easily be fixed and they need too be so that other guns can be viable again. Increase the damage drop off at range from the last word and decrease the ticks or danger of the ticks on the thorns devour perk

1 ReplyGood to hear some sense and for the people arguing buff everything else that would ruin destiny pvp the thing that makes TLW and Thorn too powerful is the fact that they kill too quick

1 ReplyYou hypocrite! You have over a 3 kd (seriously wtf, im calling hax, jk) and use tlw on your hunter alone. You're right they should be nerfed and you are a main example of just why

2 RepliesEdited by InfestedCyborg: 7/16/2015 12:47:55 PMWhat I would like to see is thorn being fixed, so it can not glitch for the final as first round. I would also like to see tlw fixed so ADS doesn't do stupid damage.

I have some doubts that a game can be a loot-based game with a good part of the motivation for playing it being trying to get that next awesome weapon and at the same time making that awesome weapon balanced and not stand above the others at which point by definition it's not that awesome anymore. That being said, and even if it's not possible to have a perfect balance, the current state of pvp is just bad. Not just because of how they managed to unbalance it so much making whole classes of weapons useless, but also because they have allow it to go on forever and also because we got here after numerous attempts to sort it out.

13 RepliesSo you are crying to NERF TLW.. Yet you are using it? What?????? You might as well say don't have sex with women... But your having sex with women.... Are you -blam!-ing special bitch?

The weapon update will probably be released along side with the taken king expansion.

4 RepliesThis post is perfectly valid and they do need to be nerfed already, not sure why people are directing hate towards him before he's actually replied to you, but on that note while kd is an important factor, unless somebody tries to use that in their argument, I'd just leave it out, it rubs too many the wrong way
-
You have the last word currently equipped.... You could always just use different weapons.
-
I guess we'll just have to wait and see what they have in store for us in the taken king
