Having a thorn and using it in PvP isn't any different than a Gally used in PvE. It's all RNG. Technically everyone has the same opportunity and chance to get it. If people are tired of it in crucible, there are ways to avoid getting killed by thorn.
Secondly, Thorn is generally a 2 head shot kill. Red Death is also a 2 head shot kill. No one complains about Red Death however do they?
If there are people complaining about Thorn, they should be equally as many complaining about Red Death. However, there is not.
Can anyone explain to me why this is true?
My perception is that people are tired of killing someone with Thorn only to die via Burn afterwords.
Speaking of burn, why are there no threads to nerd sun singer ability that always procs burn and extends burn duration?
Constructive arguments here would be nice. Thanks…

Edited by plumasaurusrex: 6/5/2015 5:57:59 AMThorn is obtained via bounty. Ghorn is not, thereby making Thorn easier to receive than Ghorn

They're both rng.

you have a much higher chance of getting Thorn.

Where did you read that?

Gallajorn is a random drop out of a pool of all exotics/legendaries. Whilst Thorn is in a pool with just the bounty exotics. You can maximise your chance of getting an exotic bounty by doing all vendor bounties(that includes Eris and Petra) on all 3 characters. Then you get a selection of 3 exotic bounties. I've only got 2 Gjallahorns since launch from drops versus a lot of exotic bounties, enough where I got them all 300 and 331 individually and did the Thorn bounty for fun but I mainly delete them.

Well ice breaker is a random drop out of a pool of all exotics as well correct? I've had 9 ice breakers, 1 thorn. How do you know the bounties aren't weighted differently?
-
Exactly
-
Much more people with Thorn than Ghorn because of an exotic bounty.
-
proof?
-
Don't need proof. Thorn is easier to obtain than Ghorn by a plethora of people

TronCat already explained to you how it's much easier to obtain Thorn than Ghorn

They could be, but Thorn is still more common than Ghorn

Red Death punishes you much more for missing your shots than a Thorn does.
