Does thorn need a buff?
Personally, I think it's been nerfed into oblivion for no reason. Sure it was OP but now it's not viable
Hand cannons in general are a bad option to use right now

Exotic hand cannons are pretty bad right now though, and THATS what needs to be changed.TLW should have the hip fire precision damage back, hawkmoon doesn't have enough range and thorns burn is useless and the range is awful.

Bring back original 6 shot 0 stability thorn

Yes the thorn is literal garbage. 4+ shots to kill a splicer dreg is ridiculous at 365. I have a 356 imago loop that kills them in 1-2. The Thorn's rof either needs to be increased or damage increased.
-
Null.

Yes, The DoT should be brought back up to 2.0. Especially with an artifact to counteract it, same goes for Sunsinger.

4 RepliesYes the DOT needs to be put at 4 and that's it

Edited by the phoenix362: 10/19/2016 1:02:12 AMI think it's stupid that so many trashy exotics exist that never were used but one that was already too good and is now in a better place than some of the trash exotics that weren't and haven't been good for a long time if at all is the only gun people want buffed when it isn't even that bad. Boolean Gemini for example could use a buff to the boosts but nobody cares. My guess is probably that people want a buff to a weapon that's easier to use than some of the actually bad exotics

Edited by an engram full of bees: 10/19/2016 12:51:18 AMI personally think it needs one or two more ticks of damage, but other than that it's good.

No leave it in the bin where it belongs. And hand cannons are fine now. Crucible is fine now. Low rof pulses and autos could do with a very small buff but nothing more.
-
It could do with a buff. I was so excited when I got it and went straight into crucible to try it out. Imago Loop and her Revenge are way better imo. A shame.

1 ReplyHonestly I'd like thorn to do no DoT, but the burn instead prevents health recovery for the duration of the burn and it lasts a bit longer. This is just a personal preference but I don't find thorn OP at the state. It's kind of useless as a damage with the DoT

And to your second sentence, pffffft no. Hand cannons are in an amazing spot right now. They're incredibly good, if you're not good enough to use one effectively that's on you.
-
It definitely needs a buff...it's range, damage, recoil, and burn are garbage. People are so scared of having a year one flashback that they can't see the gun is just awful

Yep..waist of time using. Only got it to fulfill the exotic quest.

Edited by Ninjask291: 10/17/2016 2:07:02 PMYes please. It currently takes four [b]consistent[/b] headshots plus the burn to kill. Not to mention that the new artifact (Memory of Silimar) lowers DoT in PvP, making Thorn's 2 ticks of damage become 1 tick. It's useless now.
-
It certainly does. It's been nerfed to death.

7 RepliesIt needs a buff. Most people agree.

3 RepliesNo......please no...I don't want a repeat of year 1 crucible..

3 RepliesNo, please god no. No more HoW flashbacks please.

2 RepliesNope, if you want a quick ttk you should not have dot. Having both is just broken. Being able to keep someone's shields down longer while they continually take damage is a trade off for a slower ttk.

2 RepliesIts actually really good the way it is right now

Its the result of this community, let them deal with the consequences of their bitching.
