Thorn is OP
Best gun by far
Unbalenced
Two shot kill
Unprofessional
Noob gun/new play gun
Godly in pro play hands
Nuff said.
I cannot agree thorn (and TLW) is Destiny's kryptonite for pvp. Honestly the only reason I use thorn is bc its OP do I like it ya do I think its fair no but just because its OP and I use it should it stay the way it is? Bump it up by one bullet and lower the range and falloff. The way it is now its better than all snipers, hcs, autorifles, pulse rifles, scout rifles, and so on. If thorn went shot for shot(headshots) with every primary-thorn would get every kill besides 1 or 2 and everyone knows that weapon bc you can be good or bad with it(no land beyond). Put thorn against everysingle machine guns thorn wins flawless victory. Machine guns 3-4 headshots to kill. TLW is 50/50 with the luck in the chamber to getting bonus damage when adsing is broken but it definitely lacks range so up close its a 1-3 headshot kill which is a tadbit OP but not as OP as thorn.
In order to balance guns in every shooter players need to speak up for balence. In order to have fun you need competition. In order to have competition you need balance. Its a big circle not rocket science.

Thorn being OP is a fact... name another weapon that kills in only 2 bullets at any range besides snipers and rockets.
-
Hawkmoon When head to head with one Thorn the guy dies everytime. I might die to DoT
-
Well im xbox I dont have hawkmoon I would say that is OP too but bc I havent used it I can't say anything bc it wouldn't be feedback it would be speculation.

Coiled Hiss Abyss Defiant Hygiea Noblesse All 3 owned the hell out of Thorn. Try using other weapons sometime, you might accidentally have fun.

Thorn has the range of a scout rifle. My Scout rifle takes 3 head shots for a kill compared to thorn's 2 . Bungie stated hand cannons are meant for close to medium range engagements. Thorn exceeds that boundary. Xur has sold every RNG related exotic weapon by now. Why do more people use Thorn then say Red Death or The Last Word in ToO? Because it is effective at all ranges.
-
Thorn does not have the range of my scouts. Put that to rest right now. If you haven't got a scout that can beat Thorn, you're using the wrong scout.

Edited by Aqua: 6/11/2015 10:25:01 PMI guess Gheleon's demise, considered one of the best pvp scouts, is not a scout rifle after all. Try using a scout against a thorn user, they get you at whatever map you're on, no matter what distance, except sniper distance. Compare that to other hand cannons.

I agree that scouts have sniper range and can't beat a Thorn at that range most of the time depending on the players. The problem is that a hand cannon has perfect range for the design of the gun. People could argue that shotguns don't have the range they have in real life. They just need to give this recent dlc some time. I think more people will find other guns to use. It's like saying gjalla should be nerfed because it's used too much in pve... so thorn is a great gun. So is red death a d hawkmoon and bad juju. Lord of wolves is good along with queen breaker bow...
-
Lol, check my recent history. Switched back to scouts on the 8th during IB. Pretty sure I'm not having any problems with Thorn.
-
and what of Trials of Osiris?
-
No mm. Only tried one match so far and it was stupid. They had me use my Lock and go Sunsinger which I never play. Hopefully will have time to try some elimination this weekend.
