Scrubs that use Thorn/Shotgun/Rocket..

is there not a part of you that even feels a little bit bad for using such cheap weapons & destroying PvP right now? I know that if I was running that combination of weapons, and winning easily because of the weapons and not my own skill, I'd feel pretty weak. I won't stop using ARs, because they're fun, and it's a challenge, but still the amount of players on this game that are using those weapons right now is disheartening to say the least, it's almost as bad being on a team full of thorn users, because kills are scarce and easily stolen. Edit: Right now there are two groups of people that I see and the big change in september will have different impacts for both. There's the scrubs who have terrible stats overall but recently are doing well because they have super OP weapons & when the nerf comes they will be hit hard, sent back into their terrible stat world with the rest of the bandwagon garbage. And there's the veteran players, who are chipping away with their trusty ARs, FRs and snipers, awaiting the glorious day when they will return to the top for good, and take a big shit on all you thorn users.

    • If the whole lobby is rocking thorns/tlw then I'm busting out thorn, or if my team is dead weight, and I have to go tryhard carry mode, I'm definitely gonna be using thorn. I've really started liking pulse rifles though after using the messenger for a while, and I'm trying to get good with Red Death now. I'm also working on two mini moon builds; ill will and fulcrum. Playing with Thorn and against other Thorns (exotic hcs in general) definitely gets stale quick, so it's always good to switching things up and add some variety.

      • Ugh shotgun is not cheap. Thorn is yeah. Snipers are the easiest way to win trials I've never gone flawless without a good sniper. There's very little risk at all at sniping and takes very little grace under pressure. Shotgun is super high risk. It's two different beasts

          [quote]Is there not a part of you that even feels a little bit bad for using such cheap weapons & destroying PvP right now?[/quote] You know what "destroys" PvP right now? 1. making heavy available (especially as often as it is) on 3v3 playlists or rumble 2. player hosted games instead of completely dedicated servers 3. broken or poorly fixed guns/abilities (asset to ashes, x2 final round glitching, TLW "range stat" and hipfire perk) 4. fail nerfs and buffs (FRs, Pocket Infinity, ARs) 5. fail gun/game design (aka possible to snipe 1KO a spawning member with overshield, team hardscoping has no consequence other than a group of red flares, snipe 1OK headshot or 2 quick body shots) 6. quickly regenerated supers, nades, meeles 7. orb spam (full titan defender team, anyone?) 8. DoT abilities (flames/Thorn) 9. blink (not so much just the shotgun) 10. Some buffs/nerfs affecting both pve/pvp

          I don't go to the dark side until I've lost 8 games in a row with an incompetent team and I'm really pissed off.

        • I use Thorn Matador Gjallarhorn/Corrective Measure I couldn't care less if you think this is a cheap setup because it still takes skill to use these weapons. Give a noob these weapons and I can assure you they won't get flawless trials first go.

          • It annoys me when they do it in normal crucible. I like using lots of different weapon sets to you know have fun. I like just playing around but when you meet full teams of 3 with Tryhard set ups it's so annoying because you have to narrow your load out accordingly.

          • First, this information is rock solid. This is not a debate or question. Just stare at these facts and bask in the infinite glow that is my superior understanding of the universe. I only post this in hopes of enlightening the masses. It is written in the first person as a reminder of how awesome you are. [b]Facts: 1: Any way I kill you is the most glorious and honorable of kills requiring skill of an otherworldly nature. 2: Any way you kill me is a cheap cowardly way to play the game and your family should be ashamed. 3: All of my characters are of the highest class and quality. You should be honored to die by my wrath. 4: All of your characters are cheap, easy to kill with and should cause your family some form of horrible disappointment in your skills. 5: My guns are hard to use and require skills that escape the common man. 6: Your guns are self aiming bullet sprayers that a half dead turtle could use to go 30-0. 7: My play style is clearly MENSA like in its formulation and execution. 8: Your play style is obviously the result of playing while half asleep or perhaps over medicated on daytime cold pills. 9: My chosen skill path is designed to add challenge and honor to my play style. The best of the best. 10: Your chosen skill path is a crutch that only mildly holds up your pathetic play style. End of facts...[/b] You are welcome. #universallawsoffpsgaming

                How is it cheap to pick best option available while playing for wins? Absolutely nothing. Im not wondering at all that this kinda cry topic comes from guy who have low grimoire and is stupid enough to make 2 of same class.

                • I don't use Thorn. It's either Last Word or a pulse rifle(Skorri's or Messenger). Shotgun or Sniper depending on the map, but I always have a rocket launcher equipped due to hating LMG's.

                  • Yep I feel terrible for using a shotgun and launcher, especially since I'm a hunter.

                  • If you love ARs, you owe it to yourself to buy the vendor version of the Low Down crucible auto. That is by far one of the most underrated guns right now. A goddamned hidden gem.

                  • I used to enjoy Thorn, then the last patch made all scrubs start using it. This game has sooo many players, but they are all carbon copies of each other. No one stands out.
