Better than every gun? I think The Last Word outperforms it every time. That gun owns crucible, period. The range is functionally well beyond the listed stat, and it kills much quicker than anything other than a headshot sniper or close range shotgun. Frankly, if any gun needs a nerf it's TLW in my opinion. I would be happy of they just made its effective range match the stat. Thorn requires 3 body shots, or 2 headshots. Which is exactly the same as fatebringer or timur's lash. Or basically every other handcannon...
