Honestly have grown to hate this weapon since I have benched it. Now it's all about the last word for small maps. And Hopscotch Pilgrim for ranged maps.
Anyone else finally bench the thorn? I hope the nerf kills it personally. Haha.
What's your load outs these days?
Edit: I appreciate all the replies guys. Thanks for keeping it respectful.

All hail the new pulse rifle meta.
-
Yeah I feel you. I'm on that Bad JuJu john now
-
I hate the last word far more than thorn. By a huge margin. Cross map sniping with a short range hc enrages my soul
-
It only weighs a couple of pounds. Shouldn't be too hard to bench it.

Edited by sharkbait07: 9/1/2015 5:41:55 PMthe last word is cheating in my book. The thorn and hand cannons in general are overpowered but the last word is actually broken. The ADS 111 headshot is a glitch.
-
Thorn got benched and no land beyond got my starting spot. That's the ultimate insult to the thorn.
-
honestly, the hopscotch and ALL two burst pulse rifles are just a hair away from being just as bad. they still two shot, and from anywhere on the map, with even bigger mags and more stability. plus they don't even all have to be head shots with the perks they have out now. thorn is garbage, and pulse rifles are a close second
-
I used thorn before buff.it was amazing then even though people said it sucked they were way wrong! Now everyone uses it and seems harder to enjoy so i have a new favorite the mida multitool and i wreck people with it
-
I benched my thorn a long time ago, in favor of the last word. I would use the messenger or fulcrum or mida but in order to compete (with my particular skill level) I have to use a weapon that rivals the thorn. Most infuriating thing ever is when a thorner strafes out from cover shoots once, hides, pops out again and hits me for the second time the runs like a coward away while I'm bleeding out, I feel like Tom hanks on the bridge in saving private Ryan
-
Long time ago. I miss my six shooter :( till next week. I'll have my gun back for a week.. Then ttk will take it again..
-
benched 4 months back. all 3 of them.lol
-
I honestly stopped using thorn long ago but I'm using it till dlc for shits and giggled and to kill off some thorn users with it lol
-
It took you this long?
-
dismantled the thorn bounty twice, too lazy to finish it.
-
See how everyone is catering to pulse rifles? This is the new crutch talk post patch. Also Last Word is worse than thorn. Last word gives no chance.
-
Since I got it 3 days ago I'm using til 2.0 but I can already say it's boring I don't know how people used it for 7 months or so

Edited by Soul_Eater_42: 9/1/2015 3:27:17 PMI have both the Last Word and Thorn in the Vault collecting dust. Every once in a while, I took them out, only to end up putting them back into the Vault out of disappointment after a match or 2. As "godly" as these weapons seem to be in anyone else's hands, they do nothing for me. But, I have found a beastly weapon that is more my style: the 55A-AllFATE.
-
long time ago, it's just too easy... noticeably unbalanced... feel the same about TLW...
-
I benched mine 3 months ago...
-
Bruh i benched that shït ever since it got uber-buffed...
-
Vaulted that scrub weapon a long time ago. Got sick of stooping to the level of people who never turn off try-hard mode. Same with shotguns. I do admit I will still felwinter in rumble, only because rumble is a race to get the most kills. Other than rumble tho, all I do is snipe. So I will use The Last Word if RNG oh-so-generously forces me onto a small map. But given a map that isn't tiny, my favorite loadout is MIDA/LDR. Every kill feels like a true outplay.
-
I used the last word or my super pox vlo in almost every game for this IB. I did pull out my Thorn for a few games though, just to use it one last time before the nerf.
-
I'll use TLW in trials but usually my scouts with shottys
-
I just went through a whole iron banner without using Thorn or The Last Word. I used Shadow Price and Hopscotch Pilgrim. And it was my favorite iron banner that I think i've played.
-
Last word and the messenger all day
-
Only used it once or twice. Felt dirty and put it away.
