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.

Copypaste I'd say remove the burn after the wielder dies, and maybe lower the stability. Maybe. People shouldn't be able to score a kill after they've already died = were outgunned.
-
The thing about thorn is it is good in every category. I would like someone to point out a flaw in thorn in response to my comment because I sure as hell can't.
-
The good thing is though, the majority of thorn users eat major ballsack and can't aim for shit. Thus evens out the competition.
-
Say no to nerf'er scrubs.
-
Thorn is too op i agree , i used it throughout this video
-
Too over powered = not able to outgun it with any other gun.. You contradicted your argument.. BTW I have a thorn and don't even use it..

I love how no one is hating on hawk moon red deth the vex or the last word. You can beat a thorn with any of these. Why does thorn get the hate? With the latest fix to the vex you can kill Evan faster than the last word . Red deth can kill some one in2 burst. Hawk moon can 2 shot some one. There are all theses broken guns but the only one people are trying to nerf is thorn, can anyone tell me why?

As far as i know, iron banner KD never has reflected on regular KDs. My iron banner KD last iron banner was around 2.5-3 and it didn't affect mine at all, and I played over 100 games on my hunter alone. Considering I had less than 1k games, it should've had a noticeable impact.

Edited by K1LRR: 5/5/2015 3:14:31 AMYou're crying about your kd with just 2500 kills on your hunter? Seriously?
-
I can out gun a thorn with fatebringer. Nuff said.
-
I use the thorn sometimes. It always feels like cheating
-
Blah blah please edit and boast again. Idc this post is dumb
-
Guns op, people who rely on it for kills will just flame you because they know it's a crutch and if it's taken away they won't be able to compete.
-
Thorn is not as op as many people think. The main reason people get irate with it is because the poison effect and good use of tactics. Example Hit with thorn throw a tracking grenade change position and watch them run or die. If the player doesn't run and fights back most of the time they will win.
-
Its not that thorn is OP its that everyone has the damn gun, IMO there are a lot of exotics that are more powerful than thorn its just that everyone has a thorn since its from a bounty
-
I don't want it nerfed cause I feel awesome taking those guys down. Pull out my sniper and quick scope those bastards lol

And it's garbage to get 2 head shots with. Mida multi tool FTW!
-
I don't even have one and I don't want it needed. I enjoy the challenge
-
Ahahahahahahaha I one shot people with hawkmoon. About every third match. Thorn users? They make it interesting, hawkmoon vs thorn? Hawkmoon for the kill.
-
I have a 2.3 KD and think it should be nerfed. Take out that stability upgrade, and make the tick do 5 instead of 7, so that way it's impossible to kill with 2 shots. The last word should have the damage fallout a lot quicker at mid- long range.
-
Wait till Hawkmoon hits Xbox
-
My arguement is that a lot of guns can kill you with headshots before a thorn can get it's 2nd shot off. It's not OP at close range
-
All I want is my screen to stop turning -blam!-ing neon green. It's obnoxious and annoying as -blam!-. The gun is more annoying then any other gun in the game. This thing needs a serious range nerf. I'm fine with rof impact and even the dot. However the dot should be shortened as well as the range. I shouldn't have to sit there for friggen 15 seconds waiting for my shields to regen just to get hit again with the next thorn. Sure you tools will claim play better but come on honestly on a map the size of my pinky finger how the hell do you not get hit with at least 1 thorn shot with some scrub spamming one in your general direction with that rof. Mix that with a little iron banner lag and you got some salty mother -blam!-ers really mad about thorn lol. Personally I don't think it's op. I think it still hits from way to far and my opinion about dot really just stems from how annoying the damn gun is. While I'm on annoying things please reduce the volume of the kill shots. One time I had my headset too loud and damn near shit my pants after getting hit with a sniper shot.

Timurs lash is a two shot headshot kill, wanna nerf that?
