You guys always say its not the gun, but its the player's fault. I disagree. This gun can put the best crucible player to the ground with 2 headshots. This gun IS overpowered and you thorners just don't want it nerfed.
If you want to flame me for not being good in crucible, go ahead. Idc, my skill is higher than yours anyway. I still have to see an flamer with a higher kd here...
Edit: all these scrubs flaming don't want their thorn nerfed.... ;)
Edit: most of you guys could only whine about 'lucky' headshots, so i changed that.
Yet another Edit: i'm not saying that the thorn owns me, i outgun them 80% of the time. But that doesn't take away the fact that its too powerful. A simple stability or range nerf should suffice.
Again, Edit: wow how has this reached 500+ replies? I'm truly honored by all you flaming bastards who just keep flaming. For those who agree with me, thank you :)
Edit: going straight for the 1000 replies! Please keep flaming or replying! Thank you in advance, i am calling it the night for now.
Edit: just made the 1000 replies in [b]1 DAY[/b] thanks to all the flamers and other people! Really appreciate it!
Edit: Damn this post has been bashed on. The hate is real! I'm just putting down my opinion and some facts, get over it. Also, my skill actually has nothing to do with the stats of the thorn, its crazy right?
Edit: post just hit 1500+
Thats all. Nuff said.
Check out Tiny Baby Jesus's reply, it sums up the thorn.

If you get hit in the head with a single bullet in real life, wouldn't you most likely die?
-
To all of those thorn is not OP posts... Here's another Thorn is too OP post!
-
I agree -blam!- thorn
-
-
So you outgun a weapon that you want to be weakened? Sounds like you have the best interest for everyone.
-
Did you ever consider that maybe hit box sizes are bigger than a truck?
-
Moderators, please move this to feedback

Red Death is a hard counter to Thorn. In straight firefights against Thorn, I can beat a Thorn user probably 65% of the time. And 75% of the time is the Thorn user is going to rely on DOT to finish me.
-
I agree!
-
You make it sound like 2 consecutive head shots are just a walk in the park. Sorry, but if you're a bullet sponge running around taking two shots to the head with ease than perhaps you need to look to yourself.
-
Every exotic weapon is too OP as soon as people start using it a lot, I was worried Monte carlo would get a nerf as soon as I saw someone other than myself using it And thorn doesn't need a nerf, I outgun it all the time if I see the person as soon as the shoot me..if they are behind me, obviously I'm dying
-
I'm curious why everyone is just complaining about the thorn being op, which it has been in this state for months now, only after the auto rifles nerf. These people are mad they can't spray and pray anymore

As someone who uses thorn, it really does need a [i]bit[/i] of tuning. Many other weapons simply do not have the same damage output potential
-
I rarely use thorn remember when thorn was shit Remember when hand cannons were shit Stop calling nerf Call for other exotic buffs
-
It will be getting nerfed soon
-
All exotic handcannons are OP. It is crazy easy to beat a Thorn with TLW by just spamming fan fire if your aim is decent.
-
A Timurs can 2 shot.
-
Thorn -blam!-in blows.
-
Thorns op you're right, carry on.
-
I agree with you.
-
There's a combination of weapon stats and map design that make Thorn OP. I wrote up an in depth analysis here: https://www.bungie.net/en/Forum/Post/119695535/0/0
-
That's the point of it being exotic it is supposed to be the peak of whatever weapon type it is
-
Arent exotics supposed to be op. Meh... no more nerfs...................

Hello, If you complain about the thorn and believe it needs nerfing, you are delusional. Your ego simply has to blame anything and everything but your lack of skills so you blame the thorn. If you think thorn ruins the game, go to college and some funding and create a game without the thorn in it. If you have earned a thorn and an enemy is wielding it then simply switch to your thorn and go one vs one with them. The skilled player will prevail. If you havent got a thorn to equip then i suggest you get good enough to complete the bounty. I have never seen so many delusional cry babies congregate in one corner of the internet than on here. If it was a game breaker you really think that the developers who show cased trials would let it slip? Theyd decimate every single one of you cry babies with or without it. The big dude with a beard who looked like something from hobbit was using a mida tool! A mida! And still pwning the testers. Triplewreck was using thorn and getting beat. Its a highly competitive game and you silly spoilt cry babies screaming for nerfs are ruining a game that is perfectly fine. Nerf your lack of skill and nerf your spoilt attitudes and get on with the game or go play cod where all guns are the same. I welcome tears, i welcome hate. If you are a crybaby you are bound to respond negatively to this. Big up all the real OGs who know how to handle a thorn user and dont cry and scream for nerfs and can shoot a fair one.

Exactly how can a weapon be OP if your constantly beating it? That just doesn't make any sense.
