Great post. It's nice to see a thread of someone actually defending the thorn, instead of posts by players who don't understand how to use strategy to out gun thorn users. Most of those players don't even have thorn, so they don't see it actually takes some skill to use it effectively. Personally, I am always out gunned by vex and red death users, which the thorn's fire rate doesn't stand a chance.

Exactly. I have Thorn and I hate it. I just don't like the way it forces me to play because head to head it gets wrecked. I also love that you brought up Red Death, because in my opinion, it is the single most devastating primary in the game in skilled hands, but no one ever complains about it. Why? I think it's because of the reasons in my op. It's not a raid weapon, it has no burn and pretty much everyone has had opportunity to get one. Thank you for the great post.

You're welcome. Red death always seems to get the upper hand when I'm blasting them with my thorn; even at a distance. I don't complain though; I just try to wait for heavy weapon ammo.
