Thorn is OP but 2-5 head shots from a hand canon should ALWAYS be a kill.
Anything else is unrealistic.

From six miles away?

Distance is irrelevant. What should be a tracked stat instead is accuracy at a specific distance. 50+ feet away? Hand canons don't hit accurately. 100+ feet away? ARs don't hit accurately. 150+ feet away? PRs don't hit accurately. 200+ feet away? SRs don't hit accurately. Obviously those numbers need work bu the point stands.

Edited by Always Feral: 5/5/2015 1:13:41 AMThat'd be ideal, but right now ARs have an effective reach of around 20-40 feet before damage drop-off makes them laughably bad. Within 20-40ft. you're within "If I get the first shots off and they're not packing an Exotic handcannon, I may kill this guy" range.
