The burn is only 3 hp. They should restore it to 7. Thorn was good, now it is just ok and one of the few hand canons that are worth anything.

But the 3 damage is stackable now, the 7 was not
-
It may be stackable but it will be only 2 stacks (6) since the third headshot they are dead anyways. Very rarely do you have anyone die from the poison now a days. But lets not talk about Viking Funeral. That hurts.
-
I just like the idea of multiple stacks and multiple DoTs being applied. Potentially 3 body shots from 2 people could kill a target as fast or faster under the new system. In other mmos the DoT effect is managed by a healer class and maybe is why thorn is seen as so op, nothing reduces or stops the DoT
-
red death, life support perk, and over shield melee are a few I can think of.
-
Oh absolutely, there are things that manage it. But I'm thinking of Wow or swtor pvp and having a dedicated healer keeping me alive through multiple DoTs over long periods of time and multiple engagements.
-
I was hoping for a healer class from the hunter when TTK dropped. I am surprised they have not given us anything like that. Maybe an exotic that can heal others?
-
I agree, would be nice and make the DoTs less of an issue for skilled teams
