I have had the thorn bounty at least twice before, and got frustrated doing the void kill pvp bit and deleted it both times. I have done every other exotic bounty at least once, so since i got WoC i decided if i got thorn bounty again i would have another go at it.
Got it today. Got it to the pvp bit, played maybe 6 rounds of clash so far... 60 points out of 500. (EDIT: ok just checked im at 47/500... i was up in the 60s but i had a few stinking rounds at the end... dragged me back down.)
I hate this bounty. But i will do it.
Playing as striker titan with

- sword breaker / void longbow synthesis sniper
- truth
Any thorn bounty stories or words of wisdom to share?
2nd EDIT :: Thanks to everyone for all your advice, i have read it all and will continue to read all replies before i next get online and try to further this bounty.
Plenty to think about... switch back to defender... snipe, fusion... control... magnetic grenades.. etc
Youre a good community of helpful guys and girls, dont let anyone tell us otherwise. No one had anything to gain by offering me advice here but loads of people have, so cheers.
UPDATE EDIT:: I had another go this morning using a lot of the wisdom from guardians below and it is going better, up to 368 points now, going well.
FINAL EDIT: I got it done! Now just xyor to kill. its late here now so im leaving that bit to another day. Feels good to finally beat that dam pvp bit though. Thanks again to all for the advice it was very useful.

Hide a lot, use your void fusion rifle or void shotgun. Be patient and choose your battles. 10 kills 1 death is way better than 21 kills 17 deaths.
