The only reason it's always singled out as the most "op" weapon is because it's the easiest gun to tell you got killed by. The last word and red death are just as common but don't get nearly as much hate. I'm sure if they turned your screen green they would. Just my 2 cents.

The torn is made for the crucible .. if you read the grimiore cards , the last weilder of the totem was a crucible master .. Dee J and then knew what they were doing when they made the weapon .. and they will keep it the way as it is .. you have to understand that it's painful to get .. but it sure is worth it .. I love the torn and I will use it until I get Hawkmoon until then Thorn will be used
