It's Not That Thorn is OP, It's That There Isn't Any Effective Counter
Think about it. Did you see any complaints about Thorn or The Last Word when Auto Rifles and Fusion Rifles were usable? Suros, with the Health Regen and general all around awesomeness at the time was a PERFECT COUNTER to Thorn. Plan C could also be whipped out as a panic button to escape that 2nd headshot.
Don't nerf Thorn or Hand Cannons as a whole, restore Auto Rifles and Fusions to pre 1.1.1(or just give autos the old damage and crit modifiers). If you guys go by the same logic you used to nerf Auto Rifles(people were using them too much), then it just becomes a domino effect until every weapon type is shite.

5 RepliesI would love it if they made FR's a viable PvP option again - I loved rocking FR's. Learning how to feather the charge, and fire while taking corners was fun as hell. ;-) Alas, this is why the forum nerf bunnies are a problem. They saw the mid-range beastiness of an FR as a problem when they were trying to be cool and slide with their shotties. [i]"It's not fair!"[/i] they would scream. [i]"I was sliding like a boss and he still killed me!"[/i] they cried, with their salty tears steadily streaming down their face. And what did Bungie do? They cut the balls off of nearly every FR in the game, with the Vex being the exception until recently. Now all you have is 99% shotguns running the maps, even on sniping maps like Shores of Time. What really needs to happen is the nerf bunnies need to shut the hell up and learn how to play the game instead of running to mommy Bungie whenever a gun kills them in PvP. Their whining is why the Thorn is the PvP gun of choice, and if that gets nerfed, then it will merely be another gun they go off crying about (my guess is Red Death). These crucibabies will not be happy with PvP, so Bungie should just stop pandering to them.
