Thorn is much better than every single weapon in pvp and if you believe in a balanced pvp you should want a nerf. If u don't tell me why. Please have well though out answers and no shit like 'git gud'. Be sensible Edit: please try be constructive. I want this to be a discussion not people crying and moaning everywhere Edit: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1L7FV9l4hXo2tHD3XlFUp854XvJIwTKFIPvASLduPPS4/htmlview?pli=1 Have a look at this

  • I truly don't understand how people die so much to Thorn. If you die by the actual bullet part, it's not dying to Thorn, it's dying to a hand cannon, which there are many in the game. Landing 3 shots with almost all hand cannons will kill so the only logical reason for nerf is the DoT. If you get shot once by Thorn and you're entire screen turns green, why are you sitting in the fight anyways, you're already half dead. Most people are with teammates so when a thorn user takes one shot and his teammate hits you with Red Death but the DoT on Thorn kills you, why is Thorn getting nerfed but not Red Death. If its that the Thorn user is long ranging you, use a Scout Rifle or Sniper and you can easily win the fight. If none of these work, why not use a Thorn yourself? It's not difficult to adapt to it, since you've probably been using a Hand Cannon anyways. Any skilled Hand Cannon users have used Last Word, and how is this that much worse than Thorn to where Thorn should be, basically, useless but leave in all the other "OP" weapons.
