Disagree. The weapon cannot be blamed for poor timing, lack of gun skill, and bad positioning. If you got beat by Thorn, you got outplayed. Plain and simple.
Let me explain.
First, you had to put yourself in a venerable position for the Thorn user to hit you. You must put yourself in a good position to win the fight, which obviously you didn't because your dead. Thorn can't hit from behind a wall, stay in cover.
Then, the Thorn user had to manipulate your position to where he can kill you. Thorn doesn't shoot by itself, nor does it find enemies for you. The Thorn user had to make a situation where he can either ambush you or be in a good position to win the firefight. So to say it doesn't take skill to use is outrageous.
Then the Thorn user had to actually kill you. Both avoiding your bullets and landing shots on you. How can Thorn be blamed for that? How can you blame Thorn for you being outplayed?
There's one thing people can't deny: [i]Had you played better, you would have won the firefight. If you lost, you obviously did something wrong.[/i] Not to be a douche, but just fix it next time you engage the Thorn user. It's really that simple, all you have to do is [i]play better.[/i] You don't poop gold. You aren't perfect. You made a mistake, so don't make that mistake again.
I personally have beaten Thorn with Mida Multi tool as well as other weapons at various ranges. And pretty much every primary exotic that isn't an auto rifle or no land beyond is powerful enough to kill Thorn in a reasonable amount of time.
Bungie shouldn't cater to the bad players any longer. They cannot baby you anymore. The problem [i]is[/i] you. Not the weapon. Grow up and take responsibility and stop asking to nerf people's hard earned weapon.
[i]"But I just want balance."[/i]
Bullshit. If you wanted balance you'd be petitioning to buff auto rifles, not destroy one gun. Auto rifles severely underperform from every other weapon class. [i]There's[/i] the imbalance.
[spoiler]I defend Thorn out of fairness. Not because I use it as a crutch. I barely use it anymore. Mida is Bae <3.[/spoiler]
