The solution you've been waiting for.
So recently there's been complaints about the Thorn, the Last Word, and Final Round snipers. Here's my solution to all three of them.
Thorn: Mark of the Devourer acts like a Scorch Cannon mixed with Crota's presence. By keeping the mark on the opposing player, you prevent healing. Once you let the Mark go, it does 7 damage, equal to one burn tick. By holding your R2/RT button, it effectively takes you out of the fight. I find this would be a nice balance. In turn, replace Send It with Speed Reload, since many people complain about this as well.
Last Word: First off, fix the ADS damage glitch, please. Second, get rid of Single Point Sling. It's a hip-fire weapon, don't encourage ADS. Perfect Balance makes the recoil far too easy to control. It needs to have some amount of skill involved, and for this I recommend replacing Perfect Balance with Speed Reload.
Final Round Snipers: This applies to all weapons, not just final round snipers. However, for the sake of this post I'll only reference snipers. If Final Round is removed altogether and replaced with Luck in the Chamber, there's no effective way to spam it. This cuts down on the amount of Final Round abuse in the crucible.

1 ReplyThe perfect balance perk actually does not do as much as you think. And considering it's supposed to be fired from the hip like you said it shouldn't matter if it's on there anyways. And giving thorn speed reload is a bad idea. The thorns reload is one of the only weak points of that weapon and now you're boosting that effect too. Give it a different perk for send it but not speed reload. Final Round snipers are annoying and stupid.

I don't think snipers should ever kill with one shot unless they are headshots. It should take skill to one shot an enemy. So, I think neither Final Round nor Luck in the Chamber should be options for snipers. Both Final Round and Luck in the Chamber should be replaced with something like Clown Cartridge - encouraging reloading and potentially increasing ammo reserves.

Im pretty sure you're just trolling here because Thorn: ive seen water pistols more dangerous than your idea of a good alternative perk. You do know pve exsists right? And that hp doesnt regenerate on 99% of pve enemies? Also the 7 damage is never going to be used because you have to let go of the trigger to get a second and third shot off. Unless you're proposing that there is no charge time in which case why not up the base damage and just have the mark of no regen have a 3-6 second timer. Final round snipers: is this post really old or are you clueless? You cant roll final round anymore. They arent gonna take it away from people who already have it because reasons. Just accept that theres a few very op guns still out there

7 RepliesThe Last Word's perk clearly states "Bonus damage and stability. Extra precision damage when firing from the hip." The occasional 111 vs. 84 is perfectly fine considering that the Thorn being the same impact hits at the same amount, so where's the bonus damage that the perk clearly states it's supposed to have?

1 ReplyI agree with everything except thorn. Just make it so that the ticks do 5 damage instead of 7
