Gonna say yer, seriously it's now a 3 shot to kill with headshots now (which is standard for all Hand Cannons) yet at the same time it's far more useable in PvE.
Anyone that complains is just salty over past trauma

Yes 3 shot headshot is average for hand cannons, but do other handcannons burn the target so they will have no health regeneration? Thorn is still better than other hand cannons and shouldn't be getting any better it should be getting a lot worse.
-
If you land 2 shots then burn will lower their health more but not kill them. If the target doesn't fall back to a safe spot to regenerate health the that's the fault of the player, not the player. And it coming to year 2 won't make it any different in PvP then it currently is. Making weapons Y2 only makes them effective in all PvE content

I don't think you understand the overpowered part about burn. The thing about it is that you can't regenerate and it takes many seconds for you to be able to again. Like you said, you can move back in cover, but does that stop the enemy from advancing and shooting you once to kill you? Until you prove a valid point stating Thorn is not "OP" and should be a year two weapon please don't say anything at all.

That's the ENTIRE POINT OF THE EXOTIC

Thanks for proving my point. :)

Edited by Rho'gath: 9/23/2015 2:36:40 AMSo tell me how Thorn DoT, where you need to land multiple shots to kill, is any different from a grenade that does DoT? A full Disiplin build will let you throw one every 25 sec and will either kill you outright or leave you on low health and delayed health regen, if you are left on low health what's to stop the enemy from advancing and shooting you to finish you? You could go for a Recovery based build that allows you to regenerate health sooner/faster. The point is, there are things just as potent as Thorn and also ways to counter it's effects. The fact that you find the need to continue to shun Thorn despite these things is proof that you and others believe Thorn to be as potent as it once was. It was possible to beat Thorn users before the nerf and it's easier now, not to mention that it's very rarely used now. Making it a year 2 weapon will make it usable in PvE and won't affect PvP as the damage won't change. I'm sorry if I sound rude but to me it just sounds like you hate Thorn because of what it was and are being ignorant to what it is now and the things just as potent as it.

Even if they made the weapon a little worse Thorn is still better than other weapons. Yes it is an exotic, but I don't think exotics should be plainly better than others
