No sorry no “it’s balance/ git gud / pacing shots / use cover” can argue for why this gun is this bad — it should at least be on par with TLW and it isn’t even close.
Fix the recoil, buff the range or DOT, end of story.
Heads up if your using TLW or ikelos hc for the grind, just keep it equiped for the rest of crucible season 6.

This. Lol. I used Ikelos handcannon to get Thorn and through using it I realized it's much better than Thorn. You check folks loadouts before a match and see Thorn it doesn't put the fear in you.
