Thorn is much better than every single weapon in pvp and if you believe in a balanced pvp you should want a nerf. If u don't tell me why. Please have well though out answers and no shit like 'git gud'. Be sensible Edit: please try be constructive. I want this to be a discussion not people crying and moaning everywhere Edit: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1L7FV9l4hXo2tHD3XlFUp854XvJIwTKFIPvASLduPPS4/htmlview?pli=1 Have a look at this

  • While I am worried it will be nerfed into oblivion, I do think it needs a nerf. Whether it's OP or not isn't the point, the point is about 70% of people in the crucible use it exclusively. When a gun is that popular there's obviously something about it that makes it worth using over every other gun and Bungie has said they don't want any one weapon to be the obvious choice, which to be honest atm, Thorn is. My suggestion would be to revert it to it's pre buff stats but keep the extra DoT damage for PVE and maybe the extra reload speed. Currently its base stability is pretty high and that's what makes it so good, it's easy to use. A stability nerf would make getting the second shot harder and that would pretty much balance it out.
