This is Great. I love this post. The people will still complain and claim to have facts. So w/e. For one just because you claim 50% of people use it doesn't make it OP. It just means it's a great gun for those players! My theory on why people say it's OP. Is because when I shoot them they freak out from the poison dmg and the screen effect giving me a edge and letting me land my shots. The biggest advantage Thorn has is that I can see the dmg tick Down on you as u r u. Behind a wall or duck. I know where u are and you don't know where I am exactly. Thus gives me a huge advantage in my opinion. Now I can train my sight down on. That corner walk around a pop you while your still panicking and swearing that thorn is OP. Or when u take off running trying to hide I can cut you off or tell my teammate your heading his way with shields down.. I will read the replies of how it kills with one head shot or two body shots... I just won't respond to you. And some people will understand me. I did a Thorn poll a bit ago and 50% of the people loved Thorn and didn't think it needed a nerf. I feel like it's just some kids who come on here because they can't get kills in pvp and vent.
