As irritated as the changes make me, I will say I am looking forward to the thorn/last word nerf for The Taken King. Thorn more so than The Last Word. I have had thorn since the beginning, before it became the only crucible weapon people use. It's time for people to use other weapons. Everyone complains that they grind forever for the good weapons, then when it comes time to "test your might" against other guardians, it's who can thorn the most people. Sit at the back of the map and thorn snipe everything. Don't make year one pointless, but it's time to change. The armor is something we should be able to take with us, but why make new weapons if people are only going to use maybe 4 of them? Keep most of the armor, get new weapons. That is just my opinion though.
