Before you go ape shit please consider it.
Make thorns poison non-lethal in PVP. Don't nerf it's damage, ROF, or range. The poison would still damage players but would no longer kill you.
It would be an interesting compromise.
I don't care either way but thought of this a while ago
Edit
Amount of butt hurt in this post is too damn high. People only read the -blam!-ing title and nothing else. I knew better than to expect a decent debate but it's just "DERRE YOU SUCK THORN IS GOOD DONT NERF IT DERRRRE" instead of talking like a -blam!-ing intelligent adult, oh wait I'm on destiny forums why in the -blam!- did I expect anything different lol.

1 RispondiI like this idea. Bump

May the fleas of a thousand reindeer nest in your genitals

1 RispondiPlay bastion or the large moon map. You never see thorn there. Or vex. Or the last word. Or shotguns Lol It is not the gun it is the maps. They need to be bigger like those two.
-
1 RispondiI could get behind this, or even do it so if you kill the guy who shot you you then clear yourself of the DoT. I am so tired of out gunning my enemy just to die by a DoT
-
2 RisposteI wouldn't care if they left the gun the same. Id just really appreciate not seeing it so much.
-
1 RispondiI can see it happen, its not that extreme.
-
-
I mean that's the what makes it good. Can't take that away.
-
3 RisposteI always liked the idea of the poison stacking. They could set it back to 3 DOT but stack per shot. ie: 1 hit = 3 DOT 2 hit = 6 DOT 3 hit = 9 DOT ETC...
-
nerf the range . thats all
-
1 RispondiGit gud scrub
-
2 RisposteSo so so very true. This is probably the best idea for the Thorn I have ever seen. That's quite smart how you came up with this excellent type of Nerf for the weapon Thorn. And no I'm not being sarcastic.
-
1 RispondiI think this is ok. It would deny the enemy any recovery until after the poison went away, meaning a teammate could get to them. It would also promote thorn users to actually stay alive instead of running away or not caring.
-
4 RisposteOnly should make it to where precision shots get DOT
-
49 RisposteYou are trying to take what makes this gun exotic away. It already has a long total time to kill. Longer than many others. If you have to shoot someone 5 times in order to kill them that's a bit excessive. Thorn is balanced. The problem is that you are walking dead but if it was hawk moon you would already be dead. Which make you feel that it isn't fair
-
4 RisposteI wholeheartedly agree. Thorn promotes hit and run pussies in Crucible.
-
2 RisposteJust use red death
-
1 RispondiThis is a perfect solution man. Way too many people rely on shooting thorn then hiding and waiting for the DoT to get the kill. This way DoT still does decent damage but its not a crutch for kills.
-
1 RispondiChange Thorn's firing sound to the Hive Tombship entrance noise. That'll discourage guardians from using it too much.
-
2 RisposteThorn is one of the few guns you actually "earn" so if you can wreck with it, good you deserve to.
-
Poison is the only reason they use thorn. They need the handicap. I find the gun boring, yes, it's strong and quick easy kill. But it's boring.
-
2 RisposteWon't fix a damn thing, sorry.
-
1 RispondiIt's fun killing thorn users.
-
1 RispondiThe DOT effect makes it exotic.. It just be a slow firing TLW. How I feel about.
-
1 RispondiNo. Please stop trying to ruin our beautiful guns.
-
1 RispondiThis is like the perfect nerf! I vote yes!
